Part-off and groove in the 'dry'
Advanced Carbide Tooling has introduced Futura-coated carbide inserts for its 2.2 parting-off and grooving system, allowing dry machining as well as higher cutting speeds.
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
The small size of the Max-Cut cartridge allows these cutters to carry 50 to 100% more teeth than other designs, at any given diameter.
Higher tooth density promotes faster feed rates and boosts productivity.
Ordinary cutters having closely pitched positive geometry inserts are rarely seen because the seats are so difficult (and expensive) to produce.
Max-Cut positions inserts at their optimal angle-of-attack for smooth aggressive cutting by generating the seats in tough shock resisting tool steel cartridges.
These cartridge seats hold up under long hard use without deforming, as those in soft cutter bodies do.
Well-supported inserts last longer and perform better.
Each stagger-toothed Slot-Max cutter offers extra value and versatility by side milling and slot cutting at five different face widths.
Max-Cut cartridges lock into the cutter body on vee grooves spaced at 0.0625in, so they can be shifted off center one or two spaces to either side.
No fine adjustments or special tools are required.
Removing a single screw lets you quickly and easily shift or remove a cartridge.
Slot-Max cutters are available in either a one-piece integral shank type, or the disk type paired with a Max-Cut arbor (flush cutting, extremely rigid, and included free).
Core-Max cutters are used for milling cavities and sizing cored holes by plunge cutting at extremely high feed rates.
Their high tooth density is made possible by the same ultra-compact Max-Cut cartridges.
Core-Max cutters are available with a long integral shank or in a shell mill mount.
Standard fractional, pre-threading, and pre-boring sizes start at one inch.
Custom sizes are also available.
All Max-Cut tools use standard inserts and are available with through coolant.
