Conicity Technologies Offers Radial Edge Preparation for CBN Tools


Visit Conicity Technologies at Booth #E-2681

CRESCO, PENNSYLVANIA - Conicity Technologies, the world leader in cutting edge preparation technology, is now offering a radial edge preparation advantage for cubic boron nitride (CBN) tools. Conicity's unique Engineered Micro-Geometry(TM) (EMG) process provides a superior alternative for removing defects on CBN tool edges. Stop by booth #E-2681 at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) 2006 September 6-13 in Chicago, IL to learn more about Conicity Technologies.

The T-Land has traditionally been the method used for removing defects found on tool edges after grinding. While applying a T-Land may eliminate the defects, it also creates a negative cutting condition, increasing cutting pressure and decreasing tool performance. Alternatively, Conicity's EMG radial edge preparation produces lower cutting forces and less corresponding wear, leading to a longer tool life.

Conicity also offers CBN inserts and CBN mini tip inserts with EMG preparation. PCD-tipped inserts, full-top CBN and PCD tools, and special CBN tool geometries are available on request. The size of the edge preparation applied to these tools can be customized depending on the demands of the application.
