MSS-SXhighlight enhanced with 26 mm blade option

The system can be used for grooving and longitudinal turning at feed rates up to 0.3 mm/rev at up to 3 mm depth of cut using a range of inserts in 1 mm widths from 2 through to 6 mm wide. In addition to the 26 mm blade extension, the range of inserts has been developed to include the new -M1 chipformer. With its stable cutting edge it is ideally suited to machining higher strength materials, while at the same time delivering perfectly controlled swarf and process stability. Available in left- and right-handed styles, they are capable of producing either pipless parts, or barstock, depending on the customer’s preference. WNT has also introduced a range of MSS modules that fit onto a varied range of toolholders, including round shank holders for internal work. This modular approach to parting and grooving provides users with the same interface for all of their parting, grooving and threading applications. Combined with this are the systems ease-of-use, stability, rigidity and enhanced machining performance.
