Widia launches productivity scoring Victory turning inserts

High performance Widia Victory turning inserts are aimed at steel, stainless steel, cast irons and special alloys and are claimed to deliver significantly more parts per insert. The portfolio includes 10 different grades and 14 different geometries, including an additional five Widia chipbreaker designs, for applications ranging from light or medium turning under favourable conditions to heavy duty roughing with heavy interrupted cuts.

Widia´s Victory inserts employ coating technologies to improve wear resistance and allow for higher speed and/or feed capabilities. Additional post-coat treatment provides increased cutting-edge toughness to reduce the depth of cut notching and extend tool life. The inserts are ground after coating to provide a secure seating surface to enhance tool reliability.
