The 31st International Metallurgical Exhibition (Metal-Expo 2025) — the flagship event for the Russian and CIS metallurgical industry — will be held from November 11 to 14 at the Expocentre Fairgrounds in Moscow.
As a high-tech enterprise deeply rooted in the superhard cutting tools sector,
MORESUPERHARD will participate as an exhibitor, bringing innovative CBN (cubic boron nitride) tool solutions for machining high-hardness, high-wear-resistant materials to metallurgical companies worldwide. At this exhibition, MORESUPERHARD will focus on its
CBN series tools and roll grooving tools (Carbide and PCD Notching Tools) tailored for the metallurgical roll industry. These offerings will provide efficient machining solutions for high-hardness, high-strength materials in the local metallurgical sector while deepening industrial collaboration with markets in Eastern Europe and Central Asia.
Metal-Expo Russia: A Core Hub for the Global Metallurgical Industry to Connect with the Eastern European Market
Founded in 2000, Metal-Expo Russia has grown into the largest and most professional full-industry-chain platform for metallurgy in the Russian and CIS region. Each year, it attracts hundreds of metallurgical equipment manufacturers, material suppliers, and processing technology firms from across the globe, covering core fields such as steel, non-ferrous metals, and metallurgical auxiliary materials.
The exhibition’s core audience includes purchasing decision-makers, equipment maintenance engineers, and R&D teams from metallurgical plants in Russia and neighboring countries (e.g., Ukraine, Kazakhstan). Their primary focus lies in upgrading metallurgical processing technologies toward greater efficiency, precision, and environmental friendliness.
Currently, the Russian metallurgical industry is accelerating equipment upgrades, driving a surge in demand for precision machining of high-strength materials like roll steel, bearing steel, and heat-resistant alloys. As key equipment for solving high-hardness material machining challenges, superhard cutting tools are among the exhibition’s core focuses — creating an ideal market match for MORESUPERHARD’s CBN series products.
“We are eager to showcase our technological strength in Russia, a critical industrial market,” said the head of MORESUPERHARD’s tooling product line. “The rapid development of the metallurgical industry has raised higher standards for machining tools, and our CBN products are designed to meet these challenges. Through this exhibition, we aim to engage in in-depth exchanges with industry peers and jointly advance machining technology.”
Core Exhibits: Targeting Pain Points in Metallurgical Machining
As a specialist in R&D and production of superhard cutting tools (including PCD [polycrystalline diamond], CBN, and MCD [monocrystalline diamond] tools), MORESUPERHARD’s exhibition lineup is fully customized to the metallurgical industry’s machining needs, with each product serving clear application scenarios:
1. CBN Inserts for Heavy Stock Removal, Rough Turning, Notching & Marking
This category includes standard CBN inserts, such as brazed CBN inserts and solid CBN inserts.
• Brazed CBN Inserts: Crafted with a high-strength brazing process, these tools deliver a seamless combination of a CBN superhard layer and a cemented carbide matrix. They offer exceptional wear resistance and impact toughness, with edge stability far exceeding traditional tools. Ideal for “heavy-load cutting” scenarios in metallurgy — such as finishing and semi-finishing of metallurgical rolls, large castings, and high-hardness cast iron/quenched steel (HRC ≥ 45) — they withstand high cutting loads, reduce edge chipping risks (even for tough alloys), and significantly lower tool change frequency.
• Solid CBN Inserts: Featuring a one-piece integral CBN structure (no bonding interface), these inserts boast extreme thermal stability and impact resistance. With a hardness exceeding HV3000 (second only to diamond), their wear resistance is 5–10 times that of traditional cemented carbide tools. Specifically designed for precision machining of high-hardness materials (e.g., quenched steel, high-speed steel with HRC ≥ 50) in metallurgy, they achieve IT5-level machining accuracy. This effectively enhances the surface finish and dimensional consistency of core metallurgical equipment components (e.g., transmission bearings, precision gears), ensuring long-term stable operation of equipment.
2. Carbide and PCD Notching Tools
Tailored for grooving applications in metallurgical roll machining, MORESUPERHARD offers two material options:
• Carbide Notching Tools: Boasting high impact resistance, they are suitable for grooving low-hardness rolls in the metallurgical roll industry. They handle medium cutting loads effectively and minimize tool breakage.
• PCD Notching Tools: Leveraging the high hardness and wear resistance of polycrystalline diamond, these tools excel in grooving non-ferrous metals (e.g., copper alloy conductive components) or applications requiring high polishing. Machined grooves are burr-free, with a surface finish of Ra ≤ 0.2μm — eliminating the need for secondary grinding and drastically improving efficiency.
This series supports customization of groove width and depth to meet full-size machining requirements for metallurgical components.
Notably, MORESUPERHARD’s CBN tools have been successfully deployed in numerous large-scale Chinese metallurgical enterprises. For example, a roll manufacturer saw its roll machining efficiency rise by over 30%, tool life extended to eight times the original, and overall processing costs dropped by nearly 25% after adopting these tools. These real-world cases will be highlighted at the exhibition to provide practical references for overseas customers.
On-Site Engagement & Invitation
We cordially invite you to visit MORESUPERHARD’s booth (Booth No.: 5B20) to experience the superior performance of CBN cutting tools firsthand. Our senior engineering team will be on hand throughout the exhibition to provide one-on-one solutions for customer pain points — including “optimizing cutting parameters for high-hardness materials,” “extending tool life,” and “custom machining of special workpieces.” We will also offer personalized tool selection and optimization plans based on your specific needs.
Looking ahead, MORESUPERHARD will continue to focus on superhard tool technology iteration, developing more targeted products to solve machining challenges in high-end manufacturing fields (e.g., metallurgy, aerospace, new energy). Its participation in this exhibition marks a crucial step in expanding the company’s global footprint and further enhances the competitiveness of Chinese superhard tool brands in the global high-end manufacturing sector.
We warmly invite you to visit MORESUPERHARD’s booth at the Russian Metallurgical Exhibition (November 11–14) to explore new opportunities for superhard cutting tools in metallurgical processing and discuss the industry’s future!
