Largest range of parting-off and grooving tools
A claim that its Mircona parting-off and grooving tools is the largest single range currently available from any manufacturer is being made by the UK supplier Advanced Carbide Tooling
A maximum 8mm reach allows parting-off up to 16mm diameter.
Toolholders are available with shanks 8mm, 10mm and 12mm square.
Standard inserts are manufactured from TiN-coated ASP-60 cobalt high speed steel, which performs successfully at the low surface speeds associated with small diameter parting-off and on difficult materials such as stainless steels.
Coated and uncoated sub-micrograin carbide grades are also available.
Inserts are available with either neutral or 150 approach angles.
Both insert types have a high-shear positive top rake which minimises cutting pressures and are held securely in position in a dovetail recess in the toolholder in order to provide secure clamping when machining.
In addition, a fixed back-stop ensures precise positioning of inserts.
