Applications & Features
Applications
Features
1. New brazing technology for increased machining efficiency “Wavy Joint”
• A maximum depth of cut up to 0.8 mm
– Reduces the number of passes to increase productivity
• Innovative WavyJoint brazing technology
– Prevents the CBN tips from debrazing, eliminating abrupt insert fractures during demanding dry machining, while securing stable and predictable hard turning operations.
