In the field of metal processing, cemented carbide lathe tools with their excellent wear resistance, high hardness, and long lifespan, have become indispensable cutting tools in lathe machining.
Whether it's rough machining or fine machining, choosing the right lathe tool can significantly improve production efficiency and reduce costs.
We will recommend several classic cemented carbide lathe tool models for you and analyze the applicable processing materials and scenarios.
Core Advantages of Cemented Carbide Lathe Tools
- High Hardness ：Cemented carbide materials (such as tungsten cobalt) can easily handle high-hardness metals such as steel, stainless steel, and cast iron.
- High Temperature Resistance ：During high-speed cutting, the tip can withstand 800℃ or higher temperatures, preventing rapid wear.
- Strong Versatility ：By changing the blade shape (such as diamond, triangle) or cutting edge angle, it can adapt to different processing needs.
Recommended Lathe Tool Models and Application Scenarios
1. Roughing Lathe Tool (such as Puwei CNMG-PV )
Applicable Materials ：Carbon steel, alloy steel, cast steel.
Features ：Large rake angle design, smooth chip removal, suitable for strong cutting.
Scenarios ：Rough machining of automotive parts, rough turning of shafts in heavy machinery.
2. Finishing Lathe Tool (such as Puwei CNMG-TSF )
Applicable Materials ：Stainless steel, high-temperature alloys (such as Inconel ).
Features ：Sharp cutting edge and coating technology achieve high surface finish.
Scenarios ：Precision machining of aerospace parts, medical device components.
3. Multi-functional Lathe Tool (such as Puwei general-purpose lathe tool CNMG-43 )
Applicable Materials ：Cast iron, non-ferrous metals (aluminum alloy, copper alloy).
Features ：Multi-edge indexable inserts, economical and efficient.
Scenarios ：Mold manufacturing, mass production of general machinery.
How to Choose the Right Cutting Tool for Lathe ？
Matching Material Hardness ：
When machining steel parts, prioritize wear-resistant coated inserts (such as TiAlN ).
Cutting cast iron can use high impact resistance uncoated cemented carbide.
Optimizing Cutting Parameters ：
Rough machining uses low speed, large feed rate; fine machining requires high speed, small depth of cut.
Focus on the geometry of the blade ：
Positive rake angle blades are suitable for soft materials, and negative rake angle blades are suitable for high-hardness materials.
Cemented carbide lathe tools ( Lathe Cutting Tool ) are the “ all-arounder ” ” of metal processing, and correct selection can greatly unleash the potential of the lathe.
It is recommended to select matching blade and shank combinations based on material properties, processing stage, and budget. Whether machining steel or high-temperature alloys, a high-quality Turning Tool can make your production twice the result with half the effort!
