Peeling inserts for the world's largest peeling machine
The carbide processor Ceratizit has demonstrated its expertise in the field of skiving and developed innovative skiving inserts for what is probably the world's largest skiving lathe.
At the Wire + Tube trade fair in Düsseldorf, visitors to the Ceratizit stand will not only be able to find out about the new peeling inserts, but will also see an exhibit of a peeled shaft with a diameter of 600 mm that has been machined using Ceratizit tools.
The exhibit comes from BGH Edelstahl Siegen, which has had what is probably currently the largest peeling machine in operation for a good two years. The PMH 600 peeling machine comes from the SMS Group and enables BGH to peel steel bars to a finished diameter of up to 600 millimeters. Whether gear steel for wind turbines, stainless steels for the oil and gas industry or tool steels - BGH uses this gigantic peeling machine to produce the primary material efficiently, quickly and to a high quality.
Ceratizit has been working closely with BGH since 2005 and has developed new types of skiving inserts to meet the requirements of the largest skiving machine. The new hexagonal roughing inserts from Ceratizit are already being used successfully in the PMH 600 and defy the extremely high cutting values with the best chip formation. High process reliability, the best surface finishes and maximum chip removal rates are among the outstanding qualities of these innovative inserts. am
