M Geometry Insert for GEN3SYS XT Pro



Allied Machine and Engineering has released the M geometry insert for the GEN3SYS XT Pro high penetration drill. The M geometry insert is designed for all 300 series, 400 series and super duplex stainless steels in addition to other hard-to-machine materials in the ISO M group.

"Adding the M geometry insert with Allied's AM460 coating to the GEN3SYS XT Pro high penetration drilling system gives machinists access to an insert with industry-leading tool life in stainless steel applications," said a company spokesperson. "With a substrate that provides the best balance of toughness and wear resistance necessary to excel in stainless steels, the M geometry is designed for improved chip formation while drilling high penetration rates within industries such as oil and gas, HVAC, automotive, construction, medical and pharmaceutical, and food and kitchenware."

The spokesperson added: "Not only does the M geometry insert achieve better tool life in difficult-to-machine stainless materials, but it also offers consistent failure modes to reduce the risk of catastrophic failures. Furthermore, in job shop environments, machinists can utilize one holder with multiple tip geometries when switching between stainless steels and other materials."
