Chip Breakers

Sako Trading Company offers Chip Breaker, KSO5F. This is most recently developed in the field of high performance cutting grades for machining of aluminium, aluminium alloys and other non-ferrous metals. With a grain size of only 0.8 µm it is best suited for the application on modern machining centres. Due to the polished surface, chip adhesion is reduced to a minimum and tool life is thus drastically increased. The new substrate allows for the application of highest cutting parameter. High wear resistance and excellent toughness, which enables machining in interrupted cut, are the most stunning features of the new KSO5F fine grain substrate. The wide range of radii 0.20 to 3.00 mm is another positive factor. Superb chip forming is guaranteed by the faceted design of the face and thus gives way for a vast field of applications. Cutting depth is up to ap = 5.0mm and feed rate up to f = 0.60 mm/rev at a 30% lower power consumption than with competitive products. Applications: aerospace, foodstuff, medical, machine tools and motor industries and wheel manufacturing, etc.
