Team Cutting Tools from Ceratizit to participate at Star GB open house

1 min read

The upcoming open house hosted by Star GB on 8-10 October at its Derby technology centre will provide an opportunity for visitors to see the latest sliding-head tooling developments from Team Cutting Tools, a Ceratizit brand.

Team Cutting Tools’ sliding-head range covers every element of machining, including turning, milling, grooving, drilling and a range of associated accessories. In addition, the series includes the company’s EcoCut, MiniCut and UltraMini turning and boring tools.

“The selection of tools, tool holders and bushes in our range provides a one-stop-shop for sliding-head tooling, and the Star open house is a perfect opportunity for Team Cutting Tools to highlight the full extent of the portfolio on offer,” says Tony Pennington, managing director, Ceratizit UK & Ireland. “With the latest Star machines and our tooling under one roof it will be ideal for customers to come along and discuss specific requirements. Our technical sales and applications engineers will be on-hand to ensure they get the best cutting-tool solution.”

In addition to talking about the latest cutting tools, visitors can also see them in action, with Team Cutting Tools providing tooling for live demonstrations on Star machines.

Of particular interest for turning will be WNT’s SOGX inserts, with four useable cutting edges. The inserts are tangentially mounted to ensure high process security, even under extreme cutting conditions, reports the company. This capability is further enhanced by a coolant supply that can be precisely directed and fed from either the rear or side of the tool holder.

SOGX inserts are available in two sizes, 7 and 11 mm, each with a choice of tool-coating options, making them suitable for materials that include steel, non-ferrous metals and titanium.
