Designed for roughing and semi-finishing of steel and cast iron in turning applications, Seco’s new negative-styled M6 chipbreaker inserts provide excellent productivity and versatility. Available in a variety of double-sided geometries, the M6 includes a wide positive protection chamfer, a positive rake and a wide groove to achieve high edge strength, low energy consumption and efficient chip evacuation. The chipbreaker geometry provides high resistance against chipping, crater wear and flank wear, which results in optimal tool life. To further boost productivity, the range includes double-sided, high-feed inserts. The M6 wiper design allows for higher feed rates, while delivering secure chip control, low cutting forces and reliable wear behaviour. Such benefits bring forth superior part quality and smooth surface finishes, eliminating the need for finishing operations in some applications. Typical industry segments where M6 can be used include general machining, automotive, bearings and pumps.
