The CHIXIAO A40 series is engineered to machine a wide range of materials, including carbon steel, alloy steel, pre-hardened steel, and other medium-to-high hardness metallic substrates.
It features a high-performance advanced composite coating (typically AlTiN/TiAlN) which offers exceptional thermal stability, oxidation resistance, and superior hardness during dry or high-speed machining.
Yes. Thanks to its specialized coating and geometry, the A40 series performs outstandingly under high-temperature conditions, making it suitable for dry milling setups where coolant is restricted.
The optimized flute shape provides excellent chip evacuation capability, reducing friction and heat buildup, which directly translates to smoother surface finishes and longer tool life.
Optimal speeds and feeds depend on the specific material hardness and depth of cut. Standard operational parameter sheets are available to achieve maximum efficiency and tool longevity.
By utilizing ultra-fine micro-grain carbide substrates combined with a specialized coating application process, the tool tip exhibits superior resistance against both abrasive and thermal wear.
