4. Grade Details – Key Grade Characteristics
CA515 is a PVD-coated carbide grade specifically developed for steel machining applications. The multi-layer coating architecture combines a tough substrate with a hard, wear-resistant outer layer to deliver balanced performance in both continuous and interrupted cuts.
| Property | Specification |
|---|---|
| Substrate Type | Fine-grained tungsten carbide (WC-Co) |
| Coating Technology | Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) |
| Coating Layers | TiAlN-based multi-layer |
| Hardness (HV) | 1,600 – 1,800 HV |
| Transverse Rupture Strength | > 3,000 N/mm² |
| Application Range | ISO P15 – P30 (Steel, stainless steel) |
| Color Identification | Bronze/Copper |
5. Grade Comparison Matrix
| Grade | Coating | Best For | Speed vs. Toughness |
|---|---|---|---|
| CA515 | PVD TiAlN | General steel, finishing to medium | Balanced |
| CA510 | PVD TiAlN | High-speed finishing | Speed > Toughness |
| CA520 | PVD TiAlN | Interrupted cuts, roughing | Toughness > Speed |
| CA530 | PVD TiAlN | Stainless steel, high-temp alloys | Corrosion resistant |
6. Chipbreaker Profile
PG Chipbreaker: General-purpose chipbreaker with wide application range. Reliable performance across varied cutting conditions.
| Feature | PG Specification |
|---|---|
| Rake Face Angle | Optimized for chip curl and breakage |
| Groove Width | Matched to feed range of 0.1-0.3 mm/rev |
| Edge Preparation | T-land + hone for edge stability |
| Chip Form | Controlled 6-9 segment curl / C-type chips |
7. Recommended Applications & Workpiece Materials
The TNMG160404PG with CA515 is recommended for the following materials and industries:
- Materials: Carbon steel, alloy steel, cast iron, non-ferrous metals
- Industries: Automotive, aerospace, general engineering, mold & die, energy sector
- Component Types: Shafts, gears, bearing races, hydraulic cylinders, valve bodies
8. Application Map by Operation
| Operation | Suitability | Recommended Parameters |
|---|---|---|
| External Turning | ★★★★★ Excellent | Vc 120-200 m/min, fn 0.1-0.3 mm/rev |
| Internal Turning (Boring) | ★★★★☆ Very Good | Reduce Vc by 10-15% vs. external |
| Face Turning | ★★★★☆ Very Good | Use moderate ap to avoid notch wear |
| Profiling / Contouring | ★★★☆☆ Good | Small corner radius preferred for detail |
| Cut-Off / Grooving | ★★☆☆☆ Limited | Not recommended; use dedicated grooving inserts |
9. Recommended Cutting Conditions
Values below are starting recommendations for continuous cutting of carbon steel. Adjust based on machine rigidity, coolant, and workpiece condition.
| Parameter | Roughing | Medium | Finishing |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cutting Speed (Vc) | 96-140 m/min | 120-200 m/min | 220-260 m/min |
| Feed Rate (fn) | 0.24-0.3 mm/rev | 0.1-0.3 mm/rev | 0.1-0.15 mm/rev |
| Depth of Cut (ap) | 1.2-2.0 mm | 0.5-2.0 mm | 0.5-1.5 mm |
| Coolant | Emulsion 5-8% | Emulsion 5-8% or dry | Dry or minimal coolant |
10. Operating Guidelines
- Toolholder Selection: Use negative-rake toolholders (MTJNR, MTQNR, MTENN series) with 0° clearance to match the insert geometry.
- Insert Seating: Ensure the insert pocket is clean and free of chips before clamping. Verify full contact with the base and walls.
- Clamping Torque: Tighten the clamping screw to manufacturer specification (typically 2.5–3.5 N·m). Over-tightening causes micro-cracking.
- Coolant Strategy: For best tool life and surface finish, apply high-pressure coolant directed at the cutting zone. Avoid thermal shock by maintaining consistent coolant flow.
- Edge Inspection: Check for flank wear (VB < 0.3 mm) and crater wear. Replace the insert when wear limits are reached to maintain dimensional accuracy.
- Indexation: Utilize all three corners of the triangular insert. Rotate in a consistent direction to track wear patterns.
11. Toolholder Compatibility
| Toolholder Style | Compatible Series | Application |
|---|---|---|
| External Turning | MTJNR / MTJNL (93°), MTQNR / MTQNL (75°) | General OD turning, facing |
| Internal Turning | S16Q-MTJNR16, S20R-MTJNR16 | Boring, internal profiling |
| Face Turning | MTENN / MTENL (60°), MTFNR / MTFNL (91°) | Face grooving, facing |
| Screw Clamp | All standard TNMG16 screw-clamp holders | Secure clamping for heavy cuts |
