CCGW 060202 DX140 ISO turning insert — Tungaloy, PCD grade for aluminium machining

A CCGW060202 DX140 indexable insert engineered for high-speed turning of aluminium and other non-ferrous and abrasive non-metallic materials.

• PCD cutting material for long tool life
• Rhombic shape, size 06
• 0.2 mm corner radius for fine finishes
• 7° relief angle for positive cutting
• Hole with cylindrical bore and one-sided countersink (40°–60°)

Faster cycles and predictable tool life for aluminium components

The polycrystalline diamond (PCD) cutting layer delivers high cutting speed capability and long tool life when machining aluminium and similar non-ferrous materials. The combination of a carbide substrate and a PCD cutting edge reduces flank wear and abrasion, which in turn lowers tool-change frequency and increases uptime. For production environments where cycle time and repeatability matter, this geometry supports consistent component quality and predictable tool costs over long runs.

Geometry engineered for surface quality and chip control

The rhombic plate form with an included angle of 80° and a 0.2 mm corner radius produces fine surface finishes while preserving edge strength. The 7° relief angle provides a positive engagement that reduces cutting forces and heat generation, helping to maintain dimensional accuracy. Although the insert is supplied without a dedicated chipbreaker, the PCD grade exhibits smooth shearing on soft, gummy alloys; selecting a matching toolholder and cutting parameters optimises chip evacuation and workpiece integrity.

Substrate and grade benefits for abrasive applications

The substrate material is carbide, supporting the deposition and bonding of the DX140 PCD cutting material. This arrangement gives the insert excellent resistance to abrasive inclusions often present in non-metallic workpieces and certain aluminium alloys. The DX140 grade is tailored for productive machining: it enables higher surface footage and extended edge life compared with conventional carbide grades, which translates into fewer interruptions and lower overall tooling consumption.

Straightforward integration into ISO tool systems

As an ISO-format turning insert, compatibility with holders depends on form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The insert’s size 06, thickness 2.38 mm, and the centre hole with cylindrical bore plus one-sided countersink (40°–60°) match common clamping systems, allowing easy retrofitting into existing assemblies comprising an outer holder or a boring bar plus the correct seat and clamp set. Ensure the chosen holder supports PCD tooling for optimal rigidity and cooling strategies.

Practical recommendations for process setup

When switching to PCD inserts like this grade, increase cutting speeds compared with carbide tooling while maintaining moderate feed to protect the edge form. Coolant strategies and toolpath planning should focus on stable clamping and efficient chip removal. The ISO designation and standardised geometry simplify spare management in production, allowing quick swaps without extensive setup changes and supporting lean inventory practices.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suitable for?
The DX140 grade with PCD cutting material is designed primarily for aluminium, other non-ferrous metals and abrasive non-metallic materials; it provides high cutting speed capability and extended wear resistance for these substrates.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect the finish?
A 0.2 mm corner radius balances edge strength and surface quality, enabling finer finishes on thin-walled and delicate workpieces while maintaining sufficient robustness for continuous production.

Is the insert compatible with standard ISO holders?
The CCGW060202 insert follows ISO geometry; compatibility depends on holder form, relief angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness. The 2.38 mm thickness and size 06 align with common clamping systems.

Why choose a PCD grade like DX140 over carbide?
DX140 provides superior abrasion resistance and edge life on non-ferrous and abrasive materials, allowing higher cutting speeds and reduced tool-change frequency compared with conventional carbide inserts.

What is the significance of the hole with countersink?
The central hole with cylindrical bore and one-sided countersink (40°–60°) ensures secure clamping and precise axial positioning in many indexable holder designs, improving repeatability during tool indexing.
