DNMM 150402 DX120 Tungaloy turning insert for high‑speed aluminium machining

The DNMM150402-DIA DX120 Tungaloy insert is an ISO‑standard rhombic turning insert designed for high‑speed external and internal turning of aluminium and other non‑ferrous, abrasive materials.

• PCD grade DX120 for aluminium and non‑ferrous
• ISO‑standard rhombic DNMM form
• 0.2 mm nose radius, 4.76 mm thickness
• Cylindrical hole for secure mounting

Maximise throughput with PCD performance

The DNMM150402‑DIA combines a PCD (polycrystalline diamond) cutting layer with a robust substrate to deliver very long tool life and the capacity for high cutting speeds when machining aluminium and other non‑ferrous materials. PCD is a hard, wear‑resistant cutting material that maintains a sharp edge under abrasive conditions; this results in fewer indexings and longer production runs. The direct benefit is improved productivity and reduced tooling downtime per component, which supports lean manufacturing targets.

Secure fit and consistent repeatability

Designed as an ISO indexable insert, the rhombic geometry and cylindrical hole ensure stable clamping in compatible DNMM holders. Compatibility depends on form, clearance angle, tolerance class, fastening method, size and thickness; these parameters allow the insert to be used reliably in standard external and internal turning setups. The 0° clearance angle and 55° cutting edge geometry give a predictable contact zone, while the 0.2 mm nose radius supports accurate contouring and consistent surface finish without compromising edge strength.

Material suitability and cost effectiveness

The DX120 PCD grade is optimised for aluminium, non‑ferrous metals and abrasive non‑metallic materials, enabling higher feed and speed settings than conventional cemented‑carbide inserts. This leads to a favourable cost‑per‑part ratio on long runs and abrasive workpieces. As PCD is not intended for machining steels or heat‑treatable materials, selecting the correct grade and chipbreaker is essential for process reliability. For many aluminium applications the result is lower tool consumption, improved surface quality and consistent part tolerances.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The DNMM150402‑DIA DX120 Tungaloy insert is optimised for aluminium, other non‑ferrous metals and abrasive non‑metallic materials.

Does the DX120 grade allow higher cutting speeds?
Yes, the DX120 PCD grade provides high cutting‑speed capability and extended tool life compared with conventional carbide in suitable applications.

How is the insert fixed in the holder?
The insert features a cylindrical hole for secure mounting; correct clamping and compatible holder geometry ensure repeatable positioning.

Is this insert suitable for steel machining?
The DX120 PCD grade is not recommended for machining steels or hardenable materials; it is specifically intended for non‑ferrous and abrasive non‑metallic workpieces.

What dimensions and geometry should be checked for compatibility?
Check the ISO code (150402), insert size (15 mm), thickness (4.76 mm), nose radius (0.2 mm), clearance angle (0°) and rhombic form to ensure compatibility with the chosen DNMM holder.
