Procarb plays a vital role in the Power Generation industry, a sector crucial for global infrastructure that involves the machining of extremely robust and specialized components for turbines, boilers, and auxiliary systems in both traditional and renewable energy plants. This industry demands tools capable of working with high-performance, heat-resistant materials, primarily categorized as Stainless Steel (M), Cast Iron (K), and most critically, High-Temperature Alloys and Superalloys (S). Procarb’s cutting tool solutions are tailored to the severe operating conditions of this sector: ProTurn is essential for large-scale machining of turbine rotors and shafts, featuring durable inserts including Ceramic and CBN options, which are indispensable for managing the high heat and wear when performing Roughing, Facing, and Profiling on tough materials; ProMill is used for creating precision features on turbine blades and casings, engineered for high metal removal rates via Shoulder Milling and High-Feed Milling; and the entire process is supported by ProDrill for Deep-hole Drilling in thick-walled components and ProGrip tool holders, which ensure the necessary dimensional stability and extended tool life to maintain plant efficiency and long-term reliability.
