New Turning Grades For Heat Resistant Alloys

The machining of difficult to cut materials such as heat resistant alloys, titanium alloys and Inconel has now been simplified with the introduction of the new MP9005, MP9015 and MT9015 turning grades from Mitsubishi.

The latest MIRACLE SIGMA technology has been applied in the new (AlTi)N coated MP9005 and MP9015 series. This new Al rich, (AlTi)N coating surpasses conventional performance with a single layer that provides stabilisation of the high hardness phase to dramatically improve wear, crater and welding resistance. The grades have been developed for finish to medium turning processes and for medium to rough cutting on heat resistant alloys respectively. MP9005 is a high quality grade that surpasses the wear resistance of previous versions, making it most suitable for ISO-S05 type materials, whilst the MP9015 line is better suited to ISO-S15 materials and is highly recommended for more general purpose usage. For titanium alloys in the ISO-S15 parameters, Mitsubishi has developed its MT9015 line of uncoated cemented carbide inserts th
