UE6110 new CVD coated grade for steel turning.

November 01, 2006

  Mitsubishi Materials Corporation has recently manufactured a new CVD coated grade, UE6110 for steel turning. A total of 249 different inserts in the new grade will start to be sold by Mitsubishi Materials Tools Corporation (President: Osamu Takata, Headquarters: 1-6-1 Yokoami, Sumida-ku, Tokyo).

UE6110  Many manufacturers, including automotive suppliers are always expected to fulfil the requirements for high-mix, low-volume production, shorter delivery times and reductions in cost. In these demanding situations, cutting tools are now required to have the following features: Versatility that allows the use of the tool in a wide range of cutting applications: Stability to ensure prevention of insert failure; Economy and efficiency to realise manufacturing cost savings.

UE6110 uses “2 in 1 technology” produced by combining 2 types of newly developed coating technology and delivers a machining performance that fully satisfies the needs for cutting tools.

Features of UE6110

1.
The "Nano-texture Coating" consists of a TiCN layer which has been made finer and more uniform by the use of a newly developed crystal control technology. Additionally, the crystal growth controlled Al2O3 layer gives higher wear and fracture resistance, thus ensuring a further extension of tool life.
2.
The “Black Super-even Coating”, a black, extremely smooth coating on the flank stabilises wear development during machining to achieve a high component dimensional accuracy. Furthermore, it prevents abnormal damage such as weld chipping and allows stable cutting for prolonged periods.
3.
The carbide substrate with an angled surface hardness structure designed with an optimal internal composition and distribution of hardness, has a high resistance to chipping, heat and plastic deformation. The combination of the carbide substrate and specially designed coating layers allows the use of UE6110 in a wide range of applications from interrupted cutting and roughing of surface scale to high-speed, high efficiency machining and finishing.
