Fall is a great time to celebrate the change of seasons and embrace new beginnings.听In that spirit, we are celebrating by launching new cutting-edge solutions across several platforms including 罢辞辫厂飞颈蝉蝉鈩 MBS(Mirco Boring Solid) for small parts turning, while reflecting on our journey of continuous improvement.
Since 1938, JDB电子 has been a leader in innovation. And it all began when McKenna Metals that was founded by metallurgist Philip M. McKenna, who after years of research created revolutionary tungsten-titanium carbide alloy cutting tools specifically for working with steel.
As the company evolved, in 1943 McKenna Metals became JDB电子.鈥攁 recognized leader in metalworking serving customers across continents and industries including transportation, construction, aerospace and defense, machining and cutting, energy, and general engineering.
鈥淲hen I joined the company, we were primarily a turning company. We developed and manufactured KC850, a cobalt enrichment grade that changed the industry. It was used everywhere, on every material. It put JDB电子 on the forefront,鈥 said Scott Etling, Vice President of Global Product Management.
Having a reputation for building innovative solutions for customers' most challenging applications, JDB电子 came out with newer grades called KC9110 and KC9125. Both grades utilizing cobalt enrichment, but a shift was happening in the industry. Companies started to focus on developing advanced coatings, including JDB电子.
Continuous Innovation and Tradition
With a full portfolio across grooving, holemaking, milling and threading at their fingertips, JDB电子鈥檚 progression also continues in the turning space. In recent years, JDB电子 has come out with four new grades and two new geometries in turning including KCP25C, KCU10B, KCU25B, all under the KENGold鈩 coating technology. 听
The KENGold鈩 multilayer coatings offers enhanced crater wear resistance and edge toughness in CVD grades, along with exceptional edge chipping and flank wear resistance in PVD grades. It is suitable for a variety of materials, including steels, stainless steels, cast iron, high-temperature alloys and non-ferrous materials. Additionally, the gold-colored outer layer allows easy wear identification and provides added convenience for our customers.
鈥淥ur new coatings allow our customers to run at higher speeds or higher feed rates. All targeting higher productivity for our customers. If our customers want to keep the speeds and feeds the same, they will experience longer tool life. Either way, JDB电子 is delivering savings to our customers.鈥 said Etling.
Introducing 罢辞辫厂飞颈蝉蝉鈩 (MBS)
Building on our legacy of innovation and as part of the small parts line, JDB电子 is excited to add 罢辞辫厂飞颈蝉蝉鈩 (MBS) to the 罢辞辫厂飞颈蝉蝉鈩 small parts machining platform for medical, aerospace, automotive and general engineering industries. The platform addresses the challenges customers face to achieve superior chip evacuation and surface finish in low-feed, high-depth-of-cut applications in extremely small spaces.
The newest from TopSwiss includes:
When it comes to the precision and performance necessary to turn small-diameter bores, grooves, and threads, TopSwiss MBS has a versatile offering you can count on for next-level precision internal turning. In addition to the TopSwiss line, JDB电子 has taken this technology not just from an ISO standard insert, but to other proprietary platforms like Top Notch鈩, A4鈩 and Beyond Evolution鈩.
