Y-Pro Series – Expansion of ground-grade YCGT inserts

In small parts machining, applications such as fitting components on automatic lathes, medical implants, and precision shafts demand high-precision tapering, profiling, and undercutting. Achieving consistent machining accuracy and surface quality is increasingly important, particularly with the rising need for inserts featuring a 25° corner angle. Existing ground inserts often fail to deliver the necessary stability and precision, creating challenges in complex turning operations.




Solution: Y-Pro Series Inserts
The Y-Pro Series offers ground YCGT inserts specifically designed for profiling, undercutting, and V-groove machining. The unique 25° corner angle allows precise machining of intricate shapes while avoiding interference with adjacent features. The inserts are compatible with multi-tasking machines and automatic lathes, providing flexibility across a wide range of high-precision applications.




Added Value: Precision, Surface Quality, and Productivity
Equipped with a 3D JS chip breaker, the Y-Pro Series ensures excellent chip control, reducing entanglement and interference with the workpiece. The SH7025 grade provides an optimal balance of wear resistance and toughness, delivering consistent tool life even during extended machining runs. Together, these features enable stable, precise machining and produce superior surface finishes, minimizing the need for secondary finishing operations. Compared with conventional inserts, the Y-Pro Series significantly improves dimensional accuracy, machining reliability, and operational efficiency in small parts manufacturing.
