New Milling Grades—ACU2500 for general purposes, ACP2000/ACP3000 for steel milling, and ACK2000/ACK3000 for cast iron milling

摘要

In the machining industry, long tool life and high machining efficiency are required for cost reduction and productivity improvement, and sudden troubles need to be reduced for factory automation. Furthermore, machining facilities have been increasingly integrated into single facilities that can process various work materials. In such circumstances, we have developed a general-purpose grade “ACU2500” that achieves a stable and long tool life in the milling of a wide range of work materials including steel and cast iron. We have also developed special grades ”ACP2000 / ACP3000” and “ACK2000 / ACK3000” that offer high machining efficiency and long tool life in steel milling and cast iron milling, respectively. While covering a wide variety of work materials, these five grades demonstrate 1.5 times longer tool life and twice higher efficiency than conventional grades, enabling significant cost reduction and productivity improvement.
