Deskripsi
KBN015 is a new-generation coated Cubic Boron Nitride (CBN) insert developed by Kyocera for high-performance machining of hardened steel, typically in the range of HRC 55–65. Engineered for superior wear resistance, thermal stability, and surface finish, KBN015 is ideal for continuous to light interrupted cutting applications such as finish turning of die steels, tool steels, and carburized parts.
The advanced multilayer TiCN + Al2O3 coating enhances performance by protecting the CBN substrate from oxidation and wear, thereby extending tool life and maintaining dimensional accuracy over longer cycles.
