New Geometry for Turning Aerospace Alloys

This cutting geometry machines a wide variety of materials including stainless steels, high nickel, high cobalt and titanium-based alloys to reduce shop inventory, operator error and cost.

ATI Stellram (Pittsburgh, PA) specifically designed the 4E Turning Geometry to meet the demands of machining aerospace type components, manufactured from High Nickel, High Cobalt and Titanium-based alloys.

Available in new grade SP0819, 4E inserts utilize an approved aerospace substrate, and are enhanced with a Nano TiAIN layer PVD coating for unmatched performance. The new 4E Aerospace Turning Geometry provides:

• Longer Tool Life. The 4E’s combination of a new super-hard coating with micro-grain carbide substrate significantly improves heat and wear resistance in high temperature alloy machining, enabling longer tool life and higher productivity.

• Improved Component Quality. The 4E’s new precise reinforced chipbreaker profile with positive cutting action dramatically reduces built-up edge, leaving a smooth surface finish and greater component dimension integrity.

• Application Versatility. The 4E is designed to machine a wide variety of materials including Stainless Steels, High Nickel, High Cobalt and Titanium-based alloys, helping to reduce shop inventory, operator error and cost.
