Walter customers can use the Internet to order any one of the 12,000 or so products within the company's indexable insert and tooling range for turning, boring and milling applications.

"With the Helitronic Vision offering tool grinding productivity gains of up to 50 per cent, and Xtra.tec being capable of halving machining times on steel workpieces, we have ensured that our MACH display is of appeal to companies of any size and with every budget," he adds.
