2-2) ADICO PCBN Cutting Tool Product Application Areas

	The range of workpiece materials that Adico PCBN can successfully machine is constantly ex-panding, but the main material groups are:
	1. Hardened steels 2. Hard facing alloys 3. Chilled cast iron 4. Pearlitic grey cast irons		5. Sintered iron 6. Superalloys e.g. Inconel 718 7. Powder metal e.g. automotive valve seats
	ADICO PCBN Products		Successful machining applications have been established in the automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries, and some examples are:
	High CBN-content PCBN ATN10, ATN16
	ATN10	gray cast iron cylinder boring (GG 20/25) nodular cast iron tuning (GGG50, 38-42 HRC with good cylindricity & higher feed rates than other tools)
	ATN16	brake drum tuning (GG20) TiAl₆V₄ exceptionally good for tuning applications internal gear tuning with very good surface finish ball nose end milling (CF53, 62HRC) with extremely high edge-stability and better surface quality sintered geared tuning (SK72-01, 60HRC)
	Low CBN-content PCBN ATN35C, ATN35N, ATN40C, ATN45N, ATN45C, ATN55N
	ATN 35C ATN 35N ATN 40C ATN 45N ATN 45C ATN 55N	finish machining difficult grey cast irons (milling) and hardened steels severe interrupted turning of hardened steels and die steels continuous & interrupted turning on hardened steels and valve seat turning applications (both continuous and interrupted) of hardened steelsand cast irons for superior surface finish finish turning on case hardened steels and crank shaft, cam shaft, and gears moderate interrupted hard turning, finish hard milling & high speedcontinuous turning It gives an exceptional surface finish to workpiece andprovides toughness to cutting tools grooving cam shafts & surface milling (cold work tool steel) mild & slight interrupted turning of gear shafts
