LNMU 0303ZE AH8015 indexable insert for high-feed milling — Tungaloy

The LNMU 0303ZE AH8015 indexable insert is a rectangular, double-sided carbide insert engineered for high-feed milling, pocketing and face machining in demanding applications.

• PVD-coated carbide AH8015 grade
• Designed for high-feed milling
• Double-sided chipbreaker geometry
• Cylindrical hole with countersink

Increased throughput with the DoFeed concept

The DoFeed family is designed for productive machining where large time-material volumes are required with small axial depths. By combining a dedicated cutter body with matching indexable inserts, this system reduces non-cutting time and increases material removal per pass. The insert’s PVD-coated carbide matrix provides a reliable compromise between wear resistance and edge stability, enabling consistent cycle times and fewer tool changes during longer production runs.

Durable edge and consistent surface quality

The AH8015 grade is a PVD-coated carbide choice optimised for the general machining of heat-resistant alloys. Its coating improves thermal stability at the cutting edge while the substrate delivers toughness to withstand intermittent loads. The result is extended tool life and steadier part quality over repeated indexing cycles, which reduces rework and supports predictable process windows for series production.

Precision geometry for secure seating and repeatable indexing

A compact rectangular 03 format with a plate thickness of 3.18 mm and a cylindrical hole + countersink (40°–60°) ensures stable clamping and accurate positioning in high-feed cutter bodies. The insert’s double-sided chipbreaker and 0° relief combine with a 90° approach geometry to deliver clean pocket walls and planar surfaces when used in the correct body. The system construction—cutter body, matching indexable inserts and clamping screws—permits straightforward replacement and repeatable mounting, reducing setup variability on the machine.

Practical application notes and material suitability

Optimised for high-feed milling, the insert is particularly suited to pocketing and face operations where small axial depths and high feed per tooth are applied. The AH8015 grade performs well on heat-resistant alloys and provides a broadly applicable solution for similar alloys encountered in aerospace and energy sector components.
