Ni-based alloys – they withstand high thermal and mechanical loads, are extremely corrosion-resistant and are suitable for many possible applications. The other side of the coin: the machining process for these super alloys is extremely challenging. For these challenges, Ceratizit has developed the MonsterMill NCR end mill with the innovative Dragonskin coating.
Whether in the aerospace sector, the chemical industry or in energy technology – components made from Ni-based alloys are often used wherever high thermal and mechanical loads prevail. The special properties of these materials speak for themselves: they have excellent heat resistance, are tremendously hard even at high temperatures and on top of that, are also extremely corrosion-resistant. At the same time, these are the properties that often push machinists and tools to their limits. Manufacturing facilities that use state-of-the-art machining processes can only remain process-secure and efficient by using tools that have been specially designed for this application.
