DCGW070202EM-2 WBS10 — Indexable turning insert (CBN), Rhombic 55° — Walter Tools

DCGW070202EM-2 WBS10 is a Walter Tools indexable turning insert developed for hard-material turning tasks, combining a CBN cutting grade with a rhombic geometry to deliver repeatable edge performance in demanding production environments.

• CBN cutting grade WBS10 for hard materials
• Rhombic 55° insert geometry
• 7° clearance angle for secure cutting
• 0.2 mm corner radius for precision

High-performance cutting for hardened materials

The CBN-based WBS10 grade provides exceptional wear resistance, particularly in the machining of hardened steels and similarly abrasive workpieces. As a consequence, cycle times are kept stable and unplanned tool changes are reduced, which improves overall productivity. The insert’s design supports predictable wear behaviour, enabling process planners to schedule maintenance and replacement with greater confidence. Where a consistent cutting edge is essential, the combination of CBN technology and a dedicated insert form delivers measurable production benefits.

Reliable chip control and consistent workpiece finish

The Rhombic 55° form and integrated chipbreaker are tuned to promote controlled chip formation and evacuation under higher cutting stresses. Together with tolerance class G, these characteristics contribute to a steady cutting force profile and a repeatable surface finish. The insert’s geometry supports fine finishing passes while handling interruptions in feed or material variability with minimal compromise to the final surface. For mixed production runs or components with hardened zones, this insert offers a balance between robustness and precision.

Secure seating, edge strength and economical use

A 7° clearance angle and a 0.2 mm corner radius ensure a secure cutting edge and reduced vibration tendency during turning. The insert size and thickness provide stable clamping and enable consistent radial engagement, which helps to extend usable edge life and maintain dimensional accuracy across batches. The design is oriented towards productive turning operations where repeatability and low downtime are priorities. For optimal results, verify the suitability of the CBN grade against the specific component material and machining parameters, consulting the product matrix where necessary.

FAQ

Which materials is this insert designed to machine?
The DCGW070202EM-2 WBS10 insert is specified for hard and highly abrasive materials; the WBS10 CBN grade is primarily intended for hardened steels and, depending on the product matrix, may be suitable for certain cast materials or superalloys.

What does the designation DCGW070202EM-2 tell me?
The designation encodes the insert geometry and size: the DCGW form and size 07 identify the rhombic 55° shape and standard envelope, while the additional numerals and letters denote thickness and specific edge form as used in Walter Tools naming.

How does the 0.2 mm corner radius affect machining?
A 0.2 mm radius balances edge strength and surface integrity; it helps to reduce edge chipping under interrupted cuts while still supporting fine surface finishes during turning operations.

Is the CBN grade WBS10 suitable for finishing operations?
Yes, the combination of CBN technology, controlled chip formation and a small corner radius makes the insert appropriate for finishing hardened components, provided cutting parameters and machine rigidity are adequate.

How can the correct insert be identified for a specific holder or tool system?
Match the ISO designation DCGW070202EM-2 WBS10 and the SKU DCGW070202EM-2-WBS10-WALTER with the toolholder catalogue; confirm insert orientation, clamping type and permissible cutting data with the holder manufacturer and the Walter Tools documentation
