Easy Chipbreaker Selection
A user friendly and easy to use range of chipbreaker geometries is employed across all 3 grades.
LM breaker for light cutting provides a sharp cutting edge to drastically reduce burrs but is optimised using different rake angles around the cutting edge to also provide the necessary strength. This provides increased quality on finished components.
MM breaker for the medium range of cutting has an ideal cutting edge land geometry configured using the latest simulation analysis. This has ensured control over plastic deformation that in turn leads to longer tool life and reduces the number of tool offset compensations needed during the life of a cutting edge.
RM breaker for rough cutting. This breaker needs a very stable edge to withstand the high forces during rough and interrupted cutting. Stability is achieved by using different rake angles for the nose and flank and also has specially optimised-for-strength edge honing. The end result provides less machine down time for increased levels of productivity.
In addition, 2 sub-breakers, GM and MA are included as a secondary selection between the main LM and MM breakers where fine tuning of performance and productivity may be needed.
MC7015, MC7025 and MP7035 are available in a wide range of negative geometries from CNMG through to WNMG types.
