CNMU120608-D57T WSP45G milling indexable insert, Tiger·tec Gold by Walter Tools — Rhombic 80°, D57T chipbreaker

The CNMU120608-D57G WSP45G is a rhombic 80° milling insert engineered for versatile face and peripheral milling across a wide range of engineering alloys

• Tiger·tec Gold PVD-coated grade
• Suitable for Stahl, rostfreier Stahl and superalloys
• Rhombic 80° geometry with 0° negative rake
• 0.8 mm corner radius and D57T chipbreaker

Increased process reliability through a tough PVD grade

The Tiger·tec Gold series combines a PVD-coated surface with a specially developed substrate to deliver a balance of toughness and wear resistance. The WSP45G grade is optimised for milling operations where fluctuating cutting forces and moderate build-up of heat occur; this reduces unexpected edge failure and extends productive tool life. For production environments this translates into fewer insert changes and more consistent component quality, supporting efficient cycle times and lower tool consumption.

Geometry and chip control that improve surface quality

The rhombic 80° shape with a 0° negative rake and a 0.8 mm corner radius provides a stable cutting edge suited to both interrupted and continuous cuts. The D57T chipbreaker is designed to promote predictable chip formation and evacuation, which helps to avoid surface defects and reduces the risk of built-up edge. Explained simply: a stable edge geometry plus an optimised chip former lead to improved surface finish and repeatable dimensional results on each pass.

Broad material capability for versatile milling strategies

Designed for machining Stahl, rostfreier Stahl and heat-resistant alloys including titanium and superalloys, the insert’s combination of substrate and coating copes with high thermal loads and tough material behaviour. The grade supports safe chip formation where poor heat conduction or ductility would otherwise destabilise the process. For end users this means fewer process adjustments when switching between roughing and finishing operations and more predictable tool life across mixed production lots.

FAQ

What materials can be machined with this insert? The CNMU120608-D57T WSP45G is suitable for machining Stahl, rostfreier Stahl and heat-resistant superalloys including titanium, thanks to the Tiger·tec Gold PVD system and its robust substrate.

How does the D57T chipbreaker benefit milling operations? The D57T chipbreaker promotes predictable chip formation and efficient evacuation, which improves surface finish and reduces the incidence of built-up edge during milling with the WSP45G grade.

What impact does the rhombic 80° geometry have on cutting performance? The rhombic 80° shape with a 0° negative rake stabilises the cutting edge under load and the 0.8 mm corner radius helps maintain dimensional accuracy and edge resilience in both roughing and finishing passes.

Is the insert primarily for roughing or finishing? The insert’s balanced toughness and coating technology make it suitable for both roughing and finishing strategies; the WSP45G grade provides sustained edge life under varying cutting conditions.

Which series and grade does this insert belong to? This insert is part of the Tiger·tec Gold series and is supplied in the WSP45G grade, designed as a coated carbide solution for demanding milling applications.
