Carbide insert

Manufacturing and machining shops that rely on carbide inserts for high speed tooling typically go through thousands of inserts each year. Machine operators work with many inserts each day, relying on their complex combination of chemistry and geometry to provide the cutting edges needed for precision, high speed production. Understanding how carbide tools are made and how the insert manufacturing processes influences their capabilities can help machine operators and manufacturers better understand their tools and overall processes.
