FLP Tooling distributes the newly launched Applitec ZX10 and ZXT10 700 Series inserts, which reportedly provide greatly increased chip control with specialized chip breakers. These chip breakers pull the chips away from the material and promote faster chip break-away.
Both the ZX10 and ZXT10 are best for machining steel, stainless steel and titanium in grooving/turning and back turning operations Multiple thickness and radius options are available in TiAlN coating (TiN available upon request).

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.
