PCD/CBN Category Tools

Our PCBN inserts and brazed tools are manufactured with premium Polycrystalline Cubic Boron Nitride materials made by world class manufacturers selected to suit your application to insure the most cost effective solution to your cutting tool problems.

PCBN offers huge advantages when machining hardened steels instead of costly grinding procedures.

Our PCD inserts and brazed tools are manufactured with the finest polycrystalline diamond materials available, selected to suit your specific application to insure the most cost effective solution to your cutting tool problems.

• PCBN inserts allow faster speeds and feeds compared to any other conventional cutting tool material—up to 300% faster cycle times.
• PCBN inserts reduce scrap and improve workpiece quality with tight dimensional control and excellent surface finishes.
• PCBN inserts optimize machine tool efficiency by increasing production capacity—reducing the need for new equipment. For example: a CNC lathe used in hard turning is about 1/3 the cost of a grinder.
• PCBN inserts allow multiple machining operations in one chucking on a lathe as opposed to several set-ups with grinding.
• PCBN cutting tools have a positive environmental impact by reducing or eliminating grinding swarf. These oil-based coolants are costly to dispose of. Most hard turning operations do not require coolant; therefore, the chips can be recycled.
