GESADUR® WN - Processing hints
Turning
- Use only carbide tools
- K10, lead angle to work ~ 5°
- Rake angle 0 - 10°
- v = 200 - 250 m/min
- First rough-turn and/or finish turning parts
- s rough turning ~ 0,25 - 0,5 mm/rev
- s smoothing < 0,15mm/rev.
- Select a cutting edge angle of 45° where possible
When turning workpieces whose exit side has already been finally planed, take these with the minor cutting edge of the turning chisel and then re-turn only when ready. This prevents the workpiece from breaking out on the exit side.
Superfinish of running surfaces
To ensure first-rate surface quality, a feed motion of 0.03 mm / rev. should be selected for superfinishing. Best surface quality is achieved by diamond cutting.
Drilling
Using only carbide-tipped twist or flat drills on the drill press, cutting angle ~ 90°, v = 40 m / min, drilling with SS spiral drill v = 15 - 20 m / min.
Clear chips regularly when using a twist drill.
