P |
P01 |
cast steel, steel |
Precise turning, precise boring |
Apply to cutting high-speed steel and small feed, or require the dimensional accuracy and good surface of the work piece, and work under no vibration state of processing. |
P10 |
cast steel, steel |
turning, by die cutting, thread cutting |
High ~ middle speed cutting, Small ~ middle milling area, middle feed or under good processing |
P20 |
