MS Geometry Insert

The drill´s »X»-shaped pocket, and tapered seat provide stability in challenging applications while making it easy to change out the insert without disassembling the body from the holder. These key design features reduce unstable cutting conditions experienced with other drills commonly available in the market today, while enabling higher penetration rates and reducing overall machine set up times and costs.

SuperTurnZ

It represents a highly productive alternative to conventional turning where 80° & 35° corner inserts are fed in the same direction, and instead utilizes all 4 directions available on conventional 2 axis lathe (+Z, -Z, +X, -X) to maximize material removal. The double-sided positive SuperTurnZ inserts have the same axial & radial rake angle and capability as standard ISO positive inserts, allowing for low cutting forces, but with double the cutting edges and much higher feed rate capabilities.

W-1011-P/WL25 Copy Turn System

With this new tool, V or D-style inserts with just two cutting edges and lower stability (ISO VBMT, VCMT, DCMT) are replaced with triangular cutting inserts with three cutting edges and high stability. These three-edged inserts allow for a 50° undercut angle, ideal for profiling operations. Since the insert shape enables turning both towards as well as away from the spindle, both cutting edges of the insert get utilized, substantially increasing the tool life. Additionally, with the chip thinning calculations, substantially higher feeds can be achieved, especially when the insert is feeding away from spindle.

GC4415 and GC4425 Steel Turning Grades

To increase their use for steel turning applications across the automotive, energy and general engineering sectors, the upgrade includes more insert shapes for each grade. Having access to the correct insert shape is vital for effective finishing and roughing operations, and the insert shape should be selected relative to the entering angle accessibility required of the tool.

Tiger·tec Gold PVD Grade

The unique TiAlN-Al2O3 multilayer coating system makes the WSP45G both hard and tough, and thus extremely resistant to abrasive wear and high temperatures, with controlled residual stresses and less flank wear, all boosting tool life. A special mechanical post-treatment improves hairline crack performance and protects the cutting edge from micro-spalling. The light gold-colored topcoat of the multilayer system makes it easier to detect wear and thereby improves process reliability. Unused cutting edges are reliably identified, making it possible to utilize the full potential of the indexable insert and further extending tool life.

OEHT (octagonal) Insert

Suitable for use on machines with limited power, the combination of new inserts and cutter delivers high metal removal rates with low cutting force and reduced chatter. It features positive axial and radial face angles for good cutting action and directing chips away from the work-piece. Available in a variety of diameters, the S450E performs well with fragile work pieces, unstable fixturing or preventing stainless steel work hardening.

GC4415 and GC4425 Carbide Inserts

GC4415 and GC4425 are ideal for manufacturers operating in mass and batch production setups machining low-alloyed (P 2.1 to 2.6) and unalloyed (P 1.1 to 1.5) steels, respectively. Grade GC4425 has been shown to outperform competing inserts in a majority of steel turning applications. It features improved wear, heat resistance and toughness, which significantly expands the application range. Both it and GC4415 can be used from finishing to roughing in applications with continuous cuts and light interruptions.n
