Tungaloy has expanded its range of positive inserts for its DoOcto/DoQuad series of face milling cutters with two new types of eight-cornered inserts: the OWMT-ML and OWMT-HJ. The OWMT-ML insert offers chip control and low cutting force, and is suitable for machining difficult-to-cut materials and workpiece materials with low rigidity such as stainless steel and heat-resistant alloys. The OWMT-HJ insert is suitable for roughing large-sized workpiece materials with wide surfaces and promotes chip evacuation at high feed. The new AH3135 grade with alternately stacked layers is said to provide stable machining and long tool life with chipping and fracture resistance.
