Kennametal has released the FIX8 heavy-duty turning system, delivering maximum metal removal rates in steel, stainless steel and cast iron. With eight cutting edges per insert, the system increases productivity of any heavy-duty turning operation, providing the lowest cost per edge while reducing cutting forces up to 15 percent. "FIX8 is designed to cover a wide range of applications, including turning and facing, smooth surfaces, interrupted, and heavily interrupted cuts. From medium depth-of-cut to roughing in steels, cast iron and challenging materials like stainless steel, FIX8 handles it all. Even extreme feed rates of up to 1.4 mm (0.055") and depths of cut up to 12 mm (0.472") are possible with FIX8," says Matthew Fuerst, product manager, Kennametal.
