“XSYTIN-1 has the potential to be as revolutionary as WG-300 was when it changed machining with its introduction in 1985,” said Jan Andersson, global manager, TechTeam and marketing, at the product lunch in America earlier this year.
XSYTIN-1 is a “revolutionary” phase-toughened ceramic insert grade complementing Greenleaf’s line of ceramic insert cutting tools. It is engineered “to machine more materials than any other ceramic grade in the industry today”. It is designed to mill, turn and groove the most difficult materials on the market at extreme feed rates with the high surface footage of ceramic inserts.
The strongest ceramic insert grade ever produced by Greenleaf, XSYTIN-1 is ideal for use in interrupted cuts, removal of scale, roughing, semi-finish and finish cuts in heat-resistant superalloy materials, cast irons, nodular irons, ductile irons, steel alloys and stainless steels.
