### ADICO PCBN Cutting Tool Product Application Areas

| **The range of workpiece materials that Adico PCBN can successfully machine is constantly ex-panding, but the main material groups are:** |  |  |  |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1. Hardened steels 2. Hard facing alloys 3. Chilled cast iron 4. Pearlitic grey cast irons | 5. Sintered iron 6. Superalloys e.g. Inconel 718 7. Powder metal e.g. automotive valve seats |   |   |
| **ADICO PCBN Products** | **Successful machining applications have been established in the automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries, and some examples are:** |   |   |
| **High CBN-content PCBN** |   |   |  |
| **AN96** | - high chipping resistance and wear resistance due to fine grain size and increased CBN content - unique binder for toughness improvement - developed for heavy interrupted machining of hardened steel |   |   |
| **AN95, ATN10, ATN10N** | - gray cast iron cylinder boring (GG 20/25) - nodular cast iron tuning (GGG50, 38-42 HRC with good cylindricity & higher feed rates than other tools) |   |   |
| **AN90, ATN16** | - brake drum tuning (GG20) - TiAl₆V₄ exceptionally good for tuning applications - internal gear tuning with very good surface finish - ball nose end milling (CF53, 62HRC) with extremely high edge-stability and better surface quality - sintered geared tuning (SK72-01, 60HRC) |   |   |
| **Low CBN-content PCBN** |   |   |  |
| **AN65** | moderate to heavy interrupted hard turning, finish hard milling |   |   |
| **AN55** | continuous & slight interrupted turning of hardened steels |   |   |
| **AN45** | high speed finish turning on hardened steels |   |   |
