JX1	10min
Competitor's whisker ceramic	3min

Long tool life

JX1 combines strength and excellent thermal conductivity for improved performance compared to whisker ceramics.
BIDEMICS outperformed with dramatically better tool life when run at same parameters as the whisker ceramic insert.

Turbine disc (Inconel - roughing)
Material : Inconel 718
Cutting speed : 200 m/min

Coolant : WET
JX1	120 cc/min
Competitor's whisker ceramic	60 cc/min

Faster speeds

BIDEMICS has excellent material characteristics to allow for high-speed machining.
JX1 machined at double the cutting speeds to improve productivity and eliminated the need for capital investments to improve production.

Coolant : WET
JX1	3 pass
Competitor's coated whisker	1 pass

Machines a wide range of heat resistant alloys

Unique material characteristics of JX1/JX3 allow them to machine difficult to cut materials such as high nickel / high cobalt / powdered metals / heat resistant alloys which have recently become more common in the market.

Chip formation comparison

Continuous chips are typical when machining heat resistant alloys but at higher cutting speeds the chips break easily.
