Wiper cutting edge design N-LUW, N-SEW, N-GUW

The wi­per cutting ed­ges help with eli­mi­nation of sur­face pro­blems du­ring ma­chi­ning. The qua­lity of the ma­chined parts de­pends cru­cially on the sur­face qua­lity. Sur­face pro­blems can be mini­mized by appro­priate tools and tech­niques. Wiper chip brea­kers such as N-LUW, N-SEW and N-GUW play a cen­tral role in this.

After the cutting pro­cess, the so-called "drag edge" (wiper) smoothes the sur­face finish and thus achieves a sig­ni­fi­cantly better, mea­surable re­sult.

Wiper chip breakers: function and advantages

Wiper chip brea­kers en­sure an even and smooth sur­face. Their bene­fits in­clude im­proved sur­face finish, which is par­ti­cularly im­portant for pre­cision com­po­nents and auto­mo­tive appli­cations, higher pro­duc­tivity since they en­able higher feed rates with­out sa­cri­fi­cing sur­face finish and also flexi­bility as the wiper chip brea­kers are suit­able for various ma­terials and ma­chi­ning pro­cesses, such as tur­ning and mil­ling.

Wiper chip brea­kers are ideal for pre­cision com­po­nents, auto­motive like com­po­nents with strict qua­lity re­quire­ments and  ISO range appli­cations.

Technical features

Geo­metry: Spe­cial de­signs on the secon­dary cutting edge im­prove sur­face finish.

Feed range: 0.1 mm/rev to 0.4 mm/rev.

Cutting depth range: 0.3 mm to 3 mm.

Ma­terial va­riety: Can be used on steel, stain­less steels, cast ma­terials and more.

Troubleshooting specific issues

Vi­bra­tions: Re­duced ma­chi­ning noise due to stable cut­ting ed­ges.

Chip flow: Opti­mi­zation through spe­cial cutting edge geo­metries such as chip brea­kers.

Ma­chine over­load: Ad­just­ment of feed rate and cutting depth as well as use of stable cutting edge geo­metries.

The use of wi­per chip brea­kers is an effec­tive way to fix sur­face pro­blems in ma­chi­ning. They offer a com­bi­na­tion of high pro­duct­ivity, flexi­bility and im­proved sur­face finish that is in­dis­pen­sable in de­man­ding appli­cations.

SumiTurn X-Bar JE anti-vibration boring bar with internal coolant supply

The Sumi­Turn X-Bar is an inno­va­tive tool spe­cially de­signed to mini­mize sur­face pro­blems when ma­chi­ning long work­pieces. The tar­geted in­ter­nal coo­lant supply effi­ciently re­du­ces and dissi­pates the tem­pera­ture gene­rated du­ring ma­chi­ning:

Im­proved sur­face qua­lity: Tar­geted cooling pro­tects the cutting edge from over­hea­ting, and the anti-vi­bra­tion pro­per­ties re­sult in a smoo­ther sur­face.

In­creased pre­cision: Pre­cise coo­ling helps to mini­mize tool wear and en­sure the di­men­sional accu­racy and re­quired sur­face finish of the work­piece

Longer tool life: Coo­ling pre­vents the cutting edge from over­hea­ting, which ex­tends the life of the tool.
