Reliable Performance in Turning Applications
Metal Removal by WIDIA (MRW) offers an extensive and proven range of products that can be used across turning applications. These products are designed to address most of our customers’ machining needs with reliable performance. Our versatile solutions span diverse work materials such as cast iron, steel, and stainless steel. In addition to a comprehensive assortment of tool holders, we offer the following turning insert grades:
MR2500M: These unique turning inserts feature a combination of wear resistance and toughness (tough microfine substrate, wear-resistant PVD coating) that provides reliability in continuous and interrupted cut applications.
MR2000K: Provides a balance between wear resistance and fracture toughness while machining cast iron. These turning insert properties are further strengthened with a thick CVD coating and post-coat treatment that provides long and consistent tool life.
MR2510P: A tough cobalt-enriched substrate, these turning inserts withstand high-impact loads and protect the edges from premature cracks and chip-offs. A superior, multi-layer CVD coating enables greater wear and chipping resistance.
New turning insert geometries from roughing to finishing
MRT3 Geometry Inserts
Designed to efficiently machine steel requiring rough to medium turning
MRT4 Geometry Inserts
Designed to efficiently machine stainless steel requiring medium to rough turning
MMT3 Geometry Inserts
Achieves medium-to-finish turning of stainless steel and steel by producing smooth, accurate surfaces with very good chip control, especially at low depths of cut.
Success Story
The MR2500M insert from Metal Removal by WIDIA proved to be an ideal solution for an operation involving outer diameter turning of flanges. The component required rough turning from the cast stage to the finished component, where the key challenge was to machine without insert breakages arising from varying input diameter.
