6. Chipbreaker Profile
Plain Negative Insert (No Chipbreaker)
Standard negative insert without molded chipbreaker. Double-sided design provides maximum economy with 4 usable cutting edges. Ideal for simple turning operations where chip control is managed by holder geometry or workpiece material.
- Double-sided design provides 4 usable cutting edges for maximum economy
- No chipbreaker restriction allows maximum edge strength
- Ideal for simple turning and facing where chip control is not critical
- Compatible with all standard negative toolholders with chipbreaker grooves
| Parameter | Range |
|---|---|
| Depth of Cut (ap) | 0.5 – 6.0 mm |
| Feed Rate (fn) | 0.10 – 0.50 mm/rev |
| Operation Class | General Turning / Facing |
7. Recommended Applications & Workpiece Materials
The DNMG150608 with CA525 grade is optimized for the following material groups and applications:
- Carbon Steels: C35, C45, C60, S235JR, S355JR – excellent for general structural and shaft machining.
- Alloy Steels: 4140 (42CrMo4), 4340, 8620 – ideal for automotive and aerospace component manufacturing.
- Tool Steels: H13, D2, O1 – suitable for die and mold industry applications.
- Free-Cutting Steels: 11SMn30, 12L14 – optimized for high-speed automatic lathe operations.
- Cast Steel: GS-52, GS-60 – stable performance in general engineering castings.
Note: For stainless steel, cast iron, or non-ferrous applications, refer to Kyocera CA6-series, CA4-series, or PR-series grades respectively. The CQ chipbreaker is specifically optimized for cast iron machining.
8. Application Map by Operation
| Operation | Depth of Cut (ap) | Feed (fn) | Cutting Speed (Vc) | Suitability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| External Turning | 0.5 – 7.0 | 0.10 – 0.55 | 130 – 210 m/min | ★★★★★ Excellent |
| Internal Turning / Boring | 0.5 – 7.0 | 0.10 – 0.55 | 130 – 210 m/min | ★★★★☆ Very Good |
| Facing | 0.5 – 7.0 | 0.10 – 0.55 | 130 – 210 m/min | ★★★★★ Excellent |
| Copy Turning / Contouring | 0.1 – 2.0 mm | 0.05 – 0.20 mm/rev | 130 – 210 m/min | ★★★☆☆ Good |
9. Recommended Cutting Conditions
Parameters below are starting recommendations for stable machining with average application conditions. Adjust based on machine rigidity, coolant delivery, and workpiece condition:
| Workpiece Material | Hardness (HB) | Cutting Speed Vc (m/min) | Feed fn (mm/rev) | Depth of Cut ap (mm) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Carbon Steel (C35, C45) | 125 – 190 | 110 – 210 | 0.10 – 0.55 | 0.5 – 7.0 |
| Alloy Steel (4140, 4340) | 180 – 280 | 100 – 190 | 0.10 – 0.55 | 0.5 – 7.0 |
| Tool Steel (H13, D2) | 200 – 350 | 90 – 170 | 0.10 – 0.55 | 0.5 – 7.0 |
| Free-Cutting Steel (11SMn30) | ≤ 190 | 140 – 220 | 0.10 – 0.55 | 0.5 – 7.0 |
Values shown are starting recommendations. For hardened materials (> 45 HRC), reduce Vc by 20–30%. For unstable or long overhang setups, reduce feed by 15–25%. Negative inserts generate higher cutting forces—ensure adequate machine rigidity.
10. Operating Guidelines
- Coolant Recommendation: Use water-soluble coolant at 6–8% concentration for optimal chip evacuation and thermal management. High-pressure coolant (≥ 20 bar) is recommended for deep-hole boring.
- Tool Overhang: Minimize tool overhang to reduce vibration. For internal turning, keep overhang ≤ 4× tool diameter. Negative inserts require rigid setups due to higher cutting forces.
- Edge Preparation: This insert features a molded chipbreaker; no additional edge honing is required. Plain inserts (no chipbreaker) offer maximum edge strength for roughing.
- Entry Strategy: Use ramp entry or arc-in programming to avoid sudden impact on the cutting edge. Negative inserts generate higher radial forces—ensure workpiece clamping is secure.
- Chip Control: Ensure adequate coolant pressure for deep-hole applications. Negative holders with chipbreaker grooves assist chip evacuation for plain inserts.
- Insert Change: Replace insert when flank wear (VB) exceeds 0.3 mm or when surface finish degrades noticeably. Double-sided design allows indexing to second side before replacement.
- Storage: Store in original packaging away from direct moisture and corrosive environments. Protect cutting edges from contact with other tools.
11. Toolholder Compatibility
The DNMG150608 is compatible with standard ISO negative toolholders featuring D, N, Q, or V clamping styles. Recommended holder series:
| Holder Series | Clamping Style | Insert Size | Shank Sizes | Application |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| DDJNR/L | Screw Clamp (D-style) | 15 | 25×25 mm, 32×32 mm, 40×40 mm | External Turning / Facing |
| DDNNR/L | Screw Clamp (N-style) | 15 | 25×25 mm, 32×32 mm, 40×40 mm | External Turning / Profiling |
| DDQNR/L | Screw Clamp (Q-style) | 15 | 25×25 mm, 32×32 mm, 40×40 mm | External Turning / Copying |
| DVJNR/L | Screw Clamp (V-style) | 15 | 25×25 mm, 32×32 mm, 40×40 mm | Internal Turning / Boring |
Important: Ensure the holder is designed for negative inserts (0° clearance). Using positive holders will result in incorrect geometry and accelerated wear. Double-sided inserts require holders with chip pockets or chipbreaker grooves for effective chip control.
