Micro tooling system speeds up auto lathe changes
Quick-change tooling system for automatic lathes, featured in the "Micro Machining Tools" catalogue, has achieved time savings of up to 40% and can be used in turning and boring operations.
Modular drill can be changed in the machine
Modular high-performance drill, that can be changed while in the machine, adds value by reducing machining time and down-time in drilling operations.
The drill has the patented Kennametal HP point geometry allowing high penetration rates and increased productivity.
Productivity gains of up to and beyond 30% can be achieved, increasing throughput and reducing manufacturing costs.
The drill is supplied in the Kennametal grade KC7315 which has a smooth multi layer TiAIN coating.
This smooth coating reduces built up edge and also promotes free flow of the chips away from the component.
It also ensures long predictable tool life even in the most demanding operations.
Such operating parameters are normally only associated with through coolant drills.
The drill can be applied in many applications and can be used to rationalize and reduce inventory and its associated costs.
The high metal removal rates and ability to run dry can significantly impact in costs associated with cutting fluids and subsequent cleaning of components.
The new B222HP in KC7315 is available from stock in cutting diameters from 3.0-19.05 mm with a form A cylindrical shank.
This new range complements by the short version, the B221HP.
