Steel Machining with the Positive PP Chipbreaker

The PP chipbreaker, available in positive-rake geometries for steel machining. The PP chipbreaker promotes stable machining by solving problems such as productivity decline due to chip entanglement.

The PP chipbreaker’s performance is stable and reliable due to its high edge strength. The composite-dot chipbreaker design improves chip control in various applications.

Let’s check the chip-evacuation performance. The PP chipbreaker breaks steel into fine chips, preventing them from becoming entangled in the hole. There are no chips remaining in the workpiece after machining with the PP chipbreaker. A competitor’s chipbreaker generates irregular-shaped chips, but the PP generates consistent chips even while increasing the feed rate.

When machining soft steel, the competitor’s chipbreaker generates irregular chips, but the PP chipbreaker maintains stable chip control. This case study shows the PP chipbreaker’s excellent chip-evacuation performance.

The PP chipbreaker is offered in multiple insert grades, making it applicable to a wide range of steel machining applications. The PP chipbreaker has the potential to improve your finishing operation.
