American National Carbide launches range of carbide inserts

The new inserts feature a substrate improved with a nano coating technology so that it can work at the elevated temperatures common when machining superalloys. Synergy also offers: a functional 100° roughing corner for enhanced productivity;  coolant flow channel for efficient temperature regulation; positive ground land to reduce cutting forces; multiple obstructions for optimal chip control; helical land angle to resist DOC notching; mechanical post-treatment to reduce friction; post-coating surface grind for maximum stability; and wide chip breaking range.

ANC offers three styles: general purpose, finishing, and roughing.
