Featuring higher drilling parameters as well as exceptional chip control and evacuation, the drill s lutes have improved helix angles along with smoother chip lute exits and our exclusive engineered wave pattern, which minimizes contact between chips and lute surfaces. Furthermore, Seco laser hardens the fronts of the lutes to 60 HRC allowing the drill to withstand chip erosion for much longer periods of time, yielding up to 40% longer drill body life. Improved pocket design Laser hardened to 60 HRC Wave patterned technology Coolant channels New lute design MZN410R/510R MBZ215 AlTiN coating True corner radius Premium carbide substrate Ball tolerance of ± REDUCE CYCLE TIMES WITH HARD MILLING MZN & MBZ The new Niagara Cutter high feed MZN410R and MZN510R solid carbide end mills bring high wear resistance and superior performance to machining mold and die components from hardened steel, cast iron or nickel-based superalloy workpiece materials. Niagara Cutter s line of high feed milling tools also includes the MBZ tools, ball nose end mills designed for the rough and inish milling of contours and complex shapes in mold and die steels. When used in high feed milling operations, these cutters reduce machining time and costs by allowing use of one tool for a wide range of operations, maximizing material removal rates and allowing close-to-proile pocketing of 90 walls. The technique also minimizes semi-inishing operations to further increase machining eiciency.

10 TACKLE HIGH STRENGTH HEAT RESISTANT MATERIALS MP2050 The optimized balance of toughness and wear resistance from the new MP2050 insert grade, originally developed for turbine blade machining in the power generation industry segment, also excels in aerospace applications and can easily handle machining materials such as austenitic and martensitic stainless steels as well as titanium. Overcome unstable machining conditions such as those involving interrupted cuts, long tool overhangs and weak ixturing with MP2050 inserts. Also, eliminate cutting edge build up thanks to the MP2050 s completely new substrate and a post-treatment applied to its coating that efectively prevents chip adhesion. The grade also allows cutting parameters to be increased, especially in dry machining conditions, while maintaining high reliability. Square T4 High Feed 2, 4 & 6 Turbo Square 6 Copy mills Double Octomill USED EDGE DETECTION NEVER WASTE ANOTHER INSERT DURATOMIC We have now incorporated our used edge detection (UED) feature into six new grades: TP3501, TP2501, TP1501 and TP0501 for steel turning and TK1501 and TK0501 developed for cast iron turning. Our UED feature makes it impossible to overlook edges that have yet to be used, increasing productivity and reducing waste. By arranging aluminum and oxygen atoms in a unique way, we created a superior a-based Al 2 O 3 coating that improves mechanical properties as well as the thermal and chemical inertness of our grades. This results in a smoother surface, resulting in less friction and heat during the cut for unmatched tool life and speed capabilities.
