How to select the right Turning grade for Non-Ferrous materials?
A mapping of Non-Ferrous Turning grades and how to select the right one.Material grouping and Grades references for Non-Ferrous
SMG N (Non-Ferrous) is divided in 5 sub-groups, to capture specific material characteristics and reduce the complexity of every specific material.
Based on grade portfolio, you can find a starting grade recommendation which can be optimized depending on the application, based on below mentioned grade mapping.
| SMG | Description | Reference |
| N1 | Aluminium alloys,
Si<9% | AW-7075 |
| N2 | Aluminium alloys,
9% < Si < 16% | AC-44200\nSi = 12% |
| N3 | Aluminium alloys,
Si>16% | AlSi17Cu5 |
| N11 | Copper alloys | CW614N |
