DPCW 11T3ZF NS740 — Tungaloy indexable insert for milling (DoFeed, 55°)

DPCW 11T3ZF NS740 is a rhombic, high-feed indexable insert designed for productive milling operations such as pocketing and face milling in the DoFeed family

• High-feed DoFeed family design
• NS740 cermet for fine surface finish
• Rhombic 55° geometry for stable cutting
• Cylindrical hole with 40°–60° countersink

Maximise material removal with high-feed DoFeed geometry

The DoFeed design enables large time‑chip volumes at small axial depths, which translates into higher productivity for repetitive machining tasks. The insert’s rhombic 55° geometry and carbide substrate combine to maintain cutting edge stability even under elevated feed rates. This geometry reduces engagement per tooth while keeping consistent chip thickness, promoting faster cycle times without sacrificing dimensional control. The insert’s construction is optimised for integration into a complete milling system comprising the milling body, matching indexable inserts and fastening screws, ensuring straightforward replacement and predictable process behaviour.

Achieve superior surface finish and steady wear with NS740

The NS740 grade is a cermet or coated cermet formulation selected for finishing to light machining of steel, emphasising surface quality and dimensional accuracy. Cermet grades offer a fine-grained edge that resists built-up edge and produces a smoother contact with the workpiece than some carbide grades. The result is improved part finish and more uniform flank wear, which reduces the need for intermediate dressing or rework. For operations where consistent tolerance and an elevated finish are priorities, this grade supports longer intervals between insert changes while preserving component quality.

Secure clamping and versatile insert form for reliable fixing

The insert features a rhombic plate form with a central cylindrical hole and a single‑sided countersink (40°–60°), enabling positive, repeatable clamping in compatible holders. The relief angle of 11° and a plate thickness of 3.97 mm contribute to a balanced edge strength suitable for the intended finishing and light machining tasks. The absence of a chipbreaker makes the geometry particularly suitable for producing fine surface finishes and predictable chip flow when combined with the correct milling body and clamping screws. Where high process security is required, the mechanical fixings and countersunk interface provide stable seating under typical milling loads.

Recommended uses and process considerations for daily production

Intended primarily for milling operations such as high‑feed milling, pocketing and face milling, the insert performs best in applications prioritising surface integrity and repeatable results. The system approach—milling body, matching inserts and screws—simplifies tool management and replacement cycles. Given the NS740 cutting grade and the insert geometry, adaptations in feed per tooth and cutting speed should aim to exploit the high‑feed advantage while maintaining light axial engagement; this yields efficient volume removal with controlled temperatures and wear. For unfamiliar setups, a brief trial cut on representative material is recommended to confirm the combination of feeds and speeds.
