Tungaloy announces an expansion of TungCut inserts with 87 total additional inserts in the latest physical vapor deposition (PVD) grades AH6235 and AH8005.

TungCut is a flexible grooving tool system offering a large variety of chipbreakers and toolholders that range from standard mono blocks to modular blades with through-coolant capabilities. According to Tungaloy, the insert clamping system provides the tool with process security and long tool life.

AH6235 is the latest titanium-enriched, nano-multilayered PVD coating with an extremely hard microstructure. Combined with a dedicated carbide substrate, the grade is said to provide the insert with exceptional reliability during parting and grooving operations with interruptions. AH8005 is another PVD grade incorporating high aluminum-content multilayered coating with high hardness. The grade integrates a dedicated Machining Inserts carbide substrate with well-balanced hardness and fracture toughness, demonstrating superior wear resistance during high speed machining.

Together with the AH7025 grade, the AH6235 and AH8005 grades will enhance TungCut performances in parting and grooving operations with interruptions, as well as grooving and turning operations with aggressive conditions.

Tungaloy also expands its AddInternalCut indexable internal grooving tool system by increasing insert width options.

AddInternalCut internal grooving tool line features ground-to-precision inserts with four cutting edges. According to Tungaloy, the insert holding system provides tool rigidity and smooth chip evacuation, ensuring superior edge repeatability and precision machining.

The insert is clamped in the seat so that, in case the cutting edge is RCMX Insert broken during machining, the remaining unused cutting edges are protected, enabling all four edges to be used. Being supported at three points when clamped in the seat, the insert provides accurate insert position repeatability and stable performance even in high speed and feedrate conditions. Furthermore, the insert is double sided and can be mounted on either a right- or left-hand toolholder, enabling easy inventory management.

AddInternalCut inserts are available in two sizes: The TCIG10 size is for internal grooving of minimum bore diameter of 10.5 mm (0.413") and up, and the TCIG12 size enables a maximum groove depth (CDX) of 3.0 mm (0.118").

The newly introduced AddInternalCut grooving inserts are capable of cutting extremely thin internal grooves of 0.5 mm (0.020"), as well as groove widths from 1.22-2.77 mm (from 0.048-0.109"), covering industry-standard groove profiles such as circlips and O rings.

Plasma surface modification is one of the most economical solutions for clean-up and activating component surfaces for further processing. Plasma technology is one of the most versatile systems that can help get a good adhesive bond for plastics or metallic, enhance the adhesive qualities of a surface for printing ink, and to clean metals.

How plasma treatment works

For the most part, plasma is a partially ionized gas and a mixture of neutral atoms, atomic and molecular ions, electrons and surface milling cutters molecules in an agitated state. The positive and negative charges balance each other and are as a result electrically neutral. Plasma treatment occurs when the charged particles in plasma that have vast amounts of energy come together and interact with a particular surface. By selecting the appropriate gas, pressure and power, the effects of treatment on any surface can be specified and accurately controlled. Plasma treatment is usually conducted in a vacuum chamber where the air within is pumped out prior to the intro of the gasoline. The gas flows into the enclosure at a low pressure. Plasma treatment when performed at low temperatures is ideal for processing heat sensitive materials. The technique is known as cold plasma.

This treatment is used to clean surfaces, and for surface activation, deposition and etching. It is used at an industrial level to treat surfaces of various materials and prepare them for coating, printing and adhesion. It removes any foreign contaminants on the surface of the material so that is made suitable for additional processing. Applying plasma treatment on the surface of materials such as plastics results in an effective pre-treatment prior to gluing, lacquering or printing. Ceramics and glass region are also treated with plasma.

In silicone dispensing, plasma technology also improves the adhesive performance of silicone. It is one of the most economical processes that can be used in a wide range of applications. High swiftness plasma treatment techniques are made to enhance barrier performance and allows for high quality cleansing with the reduction of low molecular weight contaminants from the surface of the substrate. It also eliminates any absorption of humidity. The plasma field can be directed towards the film surface to allow for high performance cleaning.

Types of plasma treatment

There are several types of plasma cleaning and surface treatment. Blow ion systems are used on non-conductive and conductive surfaces for inks and coatings. In this type of treatment, air is forced through a single Carbide Threading Inserts electrode to produce positively charged ions which are pushed to the tip of the head and onto the surface to increase the surface energy of the material. In blow arc systems, the surface of materials are made more receptive to inks by passing air through high voltage electrodes to produce positively charged ions

Renovating and improving our homes is of course common to us. This is done mostly by hiring an expert in this task. But with the use of carbide flats this can be done personally with the effect of saving a lot of money.

Avoiding damaging ceramic tiles is made possible with the use of carbide flats. Ceramic tiles are normally used in shower stalks, bathrooms and kitchen. Fixing the damage to these tiles can be costly. But the most important thing to consider is the right material to be used to help you make your work perfect.

In purchasing carbide flats, consider these helpful tips to guide you in choosing the right tools. Since there are various tools out in the market, you should always consider the durability and affordability of the products. Carbide flats have lifetime warranty because the centennial carbide is more confident that the company's products are long lasting considering the materials used in its manufacture. This is better compared to tools with only a short time warranty of one year or two.

Additional features which sometimes are of no use to the users of carbide flats would just entail additional price thus making the product more expensive. Thus, looking at the features carefully can help you determine what affordable price from the expensive ones is. It is now more practical to buy products with features that users need most.

Considering the above, have a pick with the product specially designed for drilling ceramic tiles since this is your primary purpose. Then, look at the list of variable speed drills since you'll be working at a very low speed. It is necessary that the tool does not slip of the drill because it will just cause scratches on the tiles in which the results are unpleasing to the eyes.

Take note also that there is a carbide masonry tip because if you are working on porcelain tiles, the best tool is a diamond-tipped bit. Duct tapes are used to cover and protect the tiles you're working on. This is also for the purpose of preventing damage to the entire ceramic installation rod peeling inserts due to lost of control in handling the equipment. Make a marker on the tape even with a pencil for the purpose of guiding you where the hole needs to be and the tape you place will help the drill bit to get a purchase on this area. Avoiding the risk of drill-slip as well as damage to the ceramic tiles you're working on can be made possible with the use of carbide flats.

Drilling ceramic tiles in the bathroom for hanging a towel holder or creating a hole in the kitchen can be the most effective work with the use of the carbide flats. There is accuracy in the process and the finish appears more attractive. Chances are you are doing it without damaging or affecting the ceramic tiles are high; thus, making them appear more elegant and clean.
