UE6020 Grade Technology
The UE6020 grade is a CVD coated carbide featuring a multi-layered TiCN + Al2O3 + TiN coating. It is specifically engineered to handle stable steel turning operations. This grade excels in resisting plastic deformation and crater wear at medium to high cutting speeds, ensuring long tool life in carbon, alloy, and tool steels.
MA Chipbreaker Design
The MA chipbreaker is Mitsubishi's versatile medium-cutting geometry. It is designed to provide smooth chip flow and reduced cutting resistance across a wide range of depths of cut. This helps in preventing chip entanglement, protecting the workpiece surface, and improving the efficiency of CNC turning on both low and high carbon steels.
Recommended Cutting Parameters
