DCGT070204FS-M1 WDN10 indexable turning insert by Walter Tools — PCD grade, rhombic 55° geometry

DCGT070204FS-M1 WDN10 is an indexable turning insert designed for high‑wear, abrasive non‑ferrous materials, combining a polycrystalline diamond grade with a chipbreaker for controlled machining

• PCD grade for abrasive non‑ferrous materials
• Rhombic 55° geometry for versatile tool paths
• 7° relief angle for reduced cutting forces
• 0.4 mm corner radius for fine surface finish

Durable cutting performance for abrasive, non‑ferrous materials

The insert is manufactured in a PCD (polycrystalline diamond) grade, selected for high wear resistance when machining abrasive, non‑iron materials. Polycrystalline diamond provides an extremely hard cutting edge that maintains form over extended runs, reducing downtime for tool changes and improving process stability. For workshop planning this means longer tool life and fewer tool offsets, which supports predictable production scheduling. Users should verify the exact workpiece compatibility against the product matrix, since the grade is optimised specifically for non‑ferrous, abrasive substrates rather than conventional steel machining.

Geometry engineered to reduce forces and improve finish

The rhombic 55° shape and a 7° relief angle combine to lower cutting forces and enable accessible approach angles in turning operations. The integrated chipbreaker M1 guides swarf away from the cut, helping to avoid recutting and ensuring consistent chip formation, which is particularly important with abrasive materials that can accelerate edge wear. A 0.4 mm corner radius balances edge strength with the ability to achieve a fine surface finish, making the insert suitable for finishing passes where dimensional stability and surface quality are required. These geometric choices translate into smoother machining and more reliable outcomes in series production.

Process reliability and selection guidance for production use

Built within the Walter Tools portfolio, the insert benefits from a material and geometry combination developed for productive machining of challenging non‑ferrous parts. The open series designation highlights flexibility across multiple applications, but practical selection should consider the specific workpiece and process parameters. For best results, match the insert’s PCD properties and chipbreaker characteristics to cutting speeds, feeds and machine rigidity. For further guidance on feed and speed windows or to confirm suitability for a particular alloy, Metav Werkzeuge’s technical advisors can provide targeted recommendations and application data.

FAQ

What materials is this insert suited for?
The DCGT070204FS-M1 WDN10 insert is specified for abrasive, non‑ferrous materials; the WDN10 PCD grade is optimised for such applications and suitability should be checked against the product matrix.

What does PCD mean and why is it used here?
PCD stands for polycrystalline diamond; the DCGT070204FS-M1 WDN10 uses PCD to provide very high wear resistance and long tool life when machining abrasive, non‑iron workpieces.

How does the chipbreaker M1 affect machining?
The chipbreaker M1 on the insert controls chip formation and evacuation, improving swarf management and promoting consistent cutting behaviour during turning operations.

Which geometry features influence surface finish?
The rhombic 55° form, a 7° relief angle and a 0.4 mm corner radius together reduce cutting forces and support a fine surface finish in finishing passes.
