New geometries for robust applications

Speed, safety and long tool life –are the three main advantages of the Tiger•tec Silver from Walter AG. This high-performance cutting material for cast iron machining, is now available in two new geometries: A regular flat top geometry with a stepped plateau, as well as a particularly robust variant for maximum process reliability, even for extreme interrupted cuts. In addition, Tiger•tec Silver has been available for cast iron with the MK5 universal geometry. A key feature of the new ISO K geometries is their plateau step between the location face and the cutting edge. This step enables the location face to be ground after coating. The evenness of the face on the new ISO K geometry from Walter ensures that the indexable insert is seated with the utmost stability. As a result, cutting-edge wear is reduced, particularly in the event of high dynamic loads. The MK5, RK5 and RK7 geometries – universal, classic and robust – were specifically designed for cast iron machining.
