VCMT110304-RM4 WMP20S Drehwendeschneidplatte (Rhombus 35°, 7° clearance) by Walter Tools

VCMT110304-RM4 WMP20S is an indexable turning insert developed for robust machining of rostfreiem Stahl, combining a high-performance coating and a dedicated chipformer for secure, repeatable results

• Tiger·tec Silver coating for extended tool life
• Optimised RM4 chipformer for reliable chip control
• Rhombic 35° geometry for versatile turning
• 7° clearance angle for secure cutting engagement

Predictable cutting performance for rostfreiem Stahl

The VCMT110304-RM4 WMP20S is engineered as a coated carbide indexable insert that supports consistent machining under medium to robust conditions. The Tiger·tec Silver technology provides improved resistance to adhesive wear and thermal loads, which helps to maintain a stable cutting edge during longer cycles. The integrated RM4 chipformer promotes controlled chip formation when turning materials in ISO group M, reducing the risk of built-up edge and unplanned interruptions. By prioritising process reliability and tool life, this solution contributes directly to measurable productivity gains on turning centres.

Better surface finish and reduced machining times

A rhombic 35° nose and a small 0.4 mm corner radius offer a balance between versatility and surface quality: the geometry supports both light finishing passes and deeper material engagement without sacrificing stability. The positive cutting angle and the 7° clearance reduce cutting forces, which often leads to lower spindle load and more consistent part dimensions. For operations where cycle time and repeatability are critical, this insert’s design can shorten set-up iterations and minimise tool-change frequency, supporting an improved cost-per-part calculation in series production.

Practical guidance for tool selection and application

For turning rostfreiem Stahl, matching insert geometry and grade to workpiece condition is essential. The WMP20S grade is a coated carbide developed for these materials and designed to handle heat and adhesion tendencies typical of rostfreiem Stahl; this means improved chip control and longer edge life compared with uncoated alternatives. When specifying holders and cutting parameters, consider the insert’s RM4 chipformer and rhombic angle to choose feeds and speeds that encourage segmented, manageable chips. For bespoke recommendations on feeds, speeds or toolholder pairing, technical consultation is available to ensure the component meets production targets.
