Original Press Release:
New Spherical Ball Nose System Provides Truly Indexable Finishing Inserts, Allows for the Longest Unattended Runs
Truly indexable finishing inserts have arrived with the new EDGE²® Spherical Ball Nose (SBN) system from DAPRA Corporation.
SBN inserts feature two usable cutting edges, delivering both cost savings and the highest-quality finishes. Thicker carbide construction provides better heat and stress absorption, and outstanding insert life allows for the longest unattended finishing runs – with superior surface finishes created by an improved grinding process. The SBN series is also excellent for tip-cutting, 3D profiling, semi-finishing and light roughing.
Fully thru-hardened SBN cutter bodies provide optimum strength and longevity. High accuracy and centrality ensure minimal runout to provide the best finishes and tool life, and a close-tolerance insert pocket produced by EDM removes less body material for improved insert support. Solid carbide and carbide core cutter bodies are available, as are screw-on modular heads and modular extensions.
SBN system tools are part of DAPRA’s revolutionary new EDGE²® line, a truly indexable tool family built around high-performance, twin-edged inserts and heavy-duty cutter bodies for superior roughing and finishing.
