Kyocera has introduced its KBN020 high-performing CBN grade. This general purpose CBN grade offers a broad application range from continuous to heavily interrupted machining.
Utilizing a new layering techniques, the company has developed its MEGACOAT TOUGH coating technology. This coating combines a highly wear-resistant layer on the surface adhered to high-content CBN, which is used to toughen up the edge for greater fracture resistance when encountering interruptions. The adhesion layer is laminated between the wear-resistance layer and the CBN to reduce layer peeling for longer tool life and stable machining.
It features a full lineup of negative and positive insert geometries with a variety of edge preps available. It is recommended for hardened materials (55 HRc or more) and external and internal turning, facing, and boring.
