Machine superalloys faster than the competition with the latest ceramic tool technology
Machine heat-resistant superalloys (HRSAs) 200-400% faster with the high-speed, high-feed capabilities of Seco ceramic solid end mills.Advanced heat-resistant superalloys (HRSAs) have always involved slower cutting speeds and thus longer machining cycle times that hinder maximum machine tool performance – until now. Cut your HRSA parts 200-400% faster with the new high-performance Seco ceramic solid end mills from Seco Tools. Featuring advanced SiAlON ceramics brazed to a solid carbide shank for optimal vibration damping, these optimized tools allow manufacturers to fully utilize their high-performance machine tools and fast forward their HRSA part productivity.
To cut today’s toughest HRSA materials quickly, you need the latest in tooling technology. The new range of Seco ceramic end mills have advanced geometries that are well-suited for a high-speed/high-feed cutting process. The helix, rake and relief angles, as well as a thick core and reinforced frontal teeth, offer the optimal level of stability and strength. Instead of emulsion coolant, compressed air is used to keep the tool at the required temperature – and promote good chip formation for maximizing the recovery of these valuable materials.
As some of the most challenging materials in manufacturing, HRSAs can create numerous difficulties, even for experienced manufacturers. For the application expertise and tooling solutions you need to succeed, choose Seco Tools as your partner. Leverage our decades of experience developing optimized HRSA cutting data for your applications and discover how innovative ceramic tooling can transform your part-production operations.
Ceramic tools maximize material removal in HRSAs with a unique style of roughing that uses high speeds to reach extremely high temperatures at the tool tip. This allows for exceptional metal removal rates, but finishing operations still require conventional ceramic tooling, especially for parts intended for highly regulated industries. Optimize your HRSA processes by pairing Seco ceramic end mills with the JHP780, a proven high-performance carbide finishing tool.
