NTK’s new 3D molded chipbreakers are enhanced to achieve optimal chip control on the company’s Swiss tooling. They include: CTP–CX for cutoff operations, GTMH-GX for grooving or side turning, and TBP/TBPA-BM for “single-pass, back-turning” operations.

Also, NTK expands its best-selling, “Splash Series”, Swiss product line by releasing CTDP (cutoff) coolant-through holders with maximum bar stock cutoff diameter of 1 inch (25.4mm).

Related Glossary Terms

cutoff
cutoff
Step that prepares a slug, blank or other workpiece for machining or other processing by separating it from the original stock. Performed on lathes, chucking machines, automatic screw machines and other turning machines. Also performed on milling machines, machining centers with slitting saws and sawing machines with cold (circular) saws, hacksaws, bandsaws or abrasive cutoff saws. See saw, sawing machine; turning.
grooving
grooving
Machining grooves and shallow channels. Example: grooving ball-bearing raceways. Typically performed by tools that are capable of light cuts at high feed rates. Imparts high-quality finish.
turning
turning
Workpiece is held in a chuck, mounted on a face plate or secured between centers and rotated while a cutting tool, normally a single-point tool, is fed into it along its periphery or across its end or face. Takes the form of straight turning (cutting along the periphery of the workpiece); taper turning (creating a taper); step turning (turning different-size diameters on the same work); chamfering (beveling an edge or shoulder); facing (cutting on an end); turning threads (usually external but can be internal); roughing (high-volume metal removal); and finishing (final light cuts). Performed on lathes, turning centers, chucking machines, automatic screw machines and similar machines.
