VQ, the top of the range series of carbide end mills from Mitsubishi Materials has recently expanded to include a new innovative type, the VQ4 MVM. This latest addition is ideal for machining stainless steels and difficult-to-cut-materials including titanium and heat resistant super alloys. The modern metal cutting world also demands versatility and a reduction of cutting tool inventory, therefore this new end mill is also suitable for carbon and alloy steel applications.

A new CVD-coated ceramic grade XC5010 has been added to the AHX series. The new grade displays far greater resistance to high temperatures than cemented carbide, therefore it can achieve stable machining even during high-speed cutting that can generate excess temperatures.

NEW CERMET GRADE MX3030 FOR MILLING: Cermet is a composite used successfully in cutting tools and consists of ceramic (cer) and metallic (met) materials. This combines the attractive properties of both main elements; ceramic provides the elevated temperature resistance whilst the metal component brings the plastic deformation properties of the material to prevent brittleness.

Tooling engineers and CNC machine programmers face a huge choice of turning insert grades and chipbreakers in the modern market place. Mitsubishi Materials has designed and developed two top class grades, MC6115 and MC6125. These 2 two grades have now been expanded to included positive 5°, 7° and 11° inserts.

For high performance turning of cast iron, Mitsubishi Materials has launched the MC5100 series, a brand new range of 3 different insert grades that are optimal for each type of cast iron machining application. The series also introduces an innovative new SUB-Grip layer that ensures a highly effective adhesion of the base TiCN coating layer to the carbide substrate.

To complement the AXD range of milling cutters, a series of screw-in types are now available in sizes from Ø25 - Ø40. The addition of a screw-in type brings extra versatility and efficiencies by allowing easy tool changes in situ. Additionally, the small diameters lend themselves to machining in smaller pockets and restricted areas in complex components.

Mitsubishi Materials has now extended its range of high feed FMAX cutters for finish machining. In a reversal of the existing philiosphy of a large number of teeth, the new MB type is designed with a minimum number of teeth to facilitate fine finish machining of non rigid components or when milling on smaller, less robust machining centres.

The MMT series, a comprehensive range of inserts and tools for threading has been expanded to include a new 3-D chipbreaker and a new versatile PVD coated grade. In total there are 88 new items now available.

The solid carbide drill, DFAS, for counter boring is a drill designed with a flat bottom shape so that the bottom of the hole is flat.
The DFAS drill is suitable for drilling on inclined or curved surfaces as well as thin plate machining, thus enabling a wide variety of machining applications.

The MICRO-MINI TWIN boring bar is a tool for machining the inner diameter of small, high precision parts on automatic lathes, capable of high quality machining of the inner diameter of holes from as small as 2.2 mm.

MITSUBISHI MATERIALS RECEIVE THE QUALITY AWARD FOR THE DIAEDGE TOOLS AT THE 2023 SCHAEFFLER SUPPLIER DAY: On May 23rd, Schaeffler welcomed over 450 guests to the Supplier Day Award ceremony at its HQ in Herzogenaurach/ Germany, to honour suppliers for their outstanding performance. Due to the close cooperation over 25 years as a supplier and technology partner in cutting tool solutions, MMC Hartmetall and Mitsubishi Materials have established an exceptional relationship with the Schaeffler Group. This year, the company was officially recognised with the Quality Award as a cutting tool manufacturer for outstanding performance, quality and reliability of the Mitsubishi Materials DIAEDGE tools. This Quality Award is a recognition of excellence in the DIAEDGE tools relating to high precision and stable machining processes as well as optimisation of manufacturing operations with reduced costs.

New insert grade for turning stainless steel small parts: To improve performance when conducting small part machining, Mitsubishi Materials has now introduced a new insert grade to its range of precision turning inserts. Ideal for sliding head turning centres and intricate machining, the new MS7025 grade is the insert of choice for machining stainless steels.
