Such negative rake inserts are normally configured so that the cutting edge toward the direction of cut is inclined downwardly from the body of the insert. This is in contrast to conventional inserts with a cutting edge which is directed obliquely towards the direction of cutting. As a result of this peculiar structure, Carbide Gear Hobs Cutting Tool negative rake inserts can contribute to improving machining performance.
Rolls performed the comparison with comparable studies from traditional inserts. An advantage is, in particular, that a better stability can be achieved during machining. This means the tool performs with less vibration, bounce, and chatter resulting in a smoother, hole finish.
A further benefit of the negative rake inserts is that they may aid in reducing the production of heat during machining. This can be particularly useful since excessive heat can destroy both the material being cut as well as the cutting tool. This negative rake insert feature allows you to keep the heat down and the temperature on the cutting edge to prevent problems related to heat.
Negative rake inserts are also useful in enhancing the tool life. Since these inserts are designed to be more robust and produce less heat, they can also last longer than other inserts. So, it’s possible you won’t have to replace them fully quite as frequently, which can help time- and pocket-book-wise in the long haul.

How to properly use and maintain negative rake inserts There are some important points to consider when using and maintaining negative secondary cutting angle inserts. 1. Select the right insert First things first: Make sure you have the correct insert before you start the test! This will entail picking the correct size, shape, and material shank for the material cut and type of cut being made.

It is also essential to have the cutting parameters adjusted properly with negative rake inserts. This will have things like cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut in it. Understanding these factors can help you determine how the inserts operate and the best results to obtain.

Besides these practical advice, is also nice to see how much you can do with negative rake inserts in different applications. They may be utilized for a variety of materials such as metals, plastics, and composites. They can also be applied for various cuts including normal cut (roughing), finish cut (finishing), and profile cut (profiling).
