Optimized performance when machining Heat Resistent Super Alloys (HRSA) Ceramic grade (6060) allows for a different cutting process than traditional carbide solid end mills. Tools are wear resistant and retain hardness at high temperature. 20 to 30 times the speed of carbide, for increased productivity.
Detailsmachining. Nickel alloys are classified into different categories according to their relative machining behaviour as shown in Table I. A different set of machining conditions is applicable to each category, and the first step for successful machining is for the programmer/machinist to identify the applicable category for the alloy to be machined.
DetailsPushing the Envelope with Inconel Machining. June 17, 2010. With an Ingersoll ceramic insert, some creative toolpath programming, extra attention to heat management, and a willingness to burn through inserts to maximize throughput, the busy ball-turning operation has quadrupled throughput.

DetailsHowever, with today's technological advancements in the manufacture and application of 'modern' ceramic cutting tools, manufacturing costs can be reduced dramatically when machining difficult materials. What materials can be machined with modern ceramic inserts? Heat resistant Nickel based super alloys such as Inconel, Waspaloy and Monel.
DetailsThis video from Coromant shows ceramic milling in action. The ceramic insert grade seen here, CC6060, is typically used for milling Inconel 718 engine casings (the workpiece seen here is Inconel 718) as well as for milling components for oil drilling equipment. In both cases, the value of milling with ceramic rather than carbide is a ...

An aerospace bracket made from Inconel 718 that was machined by OSG's HY-PRO® CARB VGM end mill. Allied Tool & Die was previously using a high feed indexable milling cutter for the Inconel 718 aerospace bracket application.
DetailsVolume of removed material when milling Inconel 718 with ceramic and carbide tools. As shown in Fig. 7, when machining Inconel 718, ceramic tools in two experiments (out of six) removed more material then carbide tools. Ceramic tools removed 17.5 cm3 in dry machining and 18.2 cm3 when air-blast was used. Furthermore, the highest amount removed ...
DetailsTop 7 Tips on Machining Inconel, Hastelloy, Monel and other Nickel Alloys. Rigidity, rigidity, rigidity. Maybe that's 3 but I'm going to call it one. Machine rigidity, fixture rigidity, and tooling rigidity. We still run older Mitsui Seiki horizontal mills and older Mori Seiki lathes because they are so rigid.

DetailsINCONEL ® 718, γ˝ (gamma ... When machining with CERAMIC tooling: • Higher cutting speeds of 600–4000 SFM are possible with ceramic tools (SiAlON and SiC whisker-reinforced Al 2O 3). • There is no need for coolant. • Depth-of-cut notching is more pronounced (versus carbides).
DetailsWhen Inconel is work-hardened, tooling can wear out as heat and pressure builds. Carefully inspecting tooling is critical for maximizing quality in Inconel machining. Tip #2: Start with a Solutionized Piece of Metal. Cold-drawing metal hardens the work surface. This makes Inconel even harder to work, causing more stress to tooling.
DetailsSlot milling of Inconel 718 with ceramic cutting tools Through substitution to the use of ceramic cutting tools instead of cemented carbide cutting tools, the performance of the cutting process can be increased. For ceramic tool substrates, slot milling performs a good cutting edge engagement.
DetailsFor instance, when machining an imbalanced part made of Inconel 718 with a hardness of 46 to 48 HRC, the low-end cutting speed needed for ceramics to plasticize the material is about 550 to 600 sfm. In contrast, an XYSTIN-1 insert can run at 350 to 400 sfm whereas a carbide tool would reach only 150 to 180 sfm.
DetailsMachining. Inconel is a difficult metal to shape and to machine using traditional cold forming techniques due to rapid work hardening. After the first machining pass, work hardening tends to plastically deform either the workpiece or the tool on subsequent passes. ...
