According to Walter, the efficiency of the system is such that only one type of cutting insert is required for both the left- and right-hand toolholder. And if one cutting edge breaks, work can continue with the three remaining edges.
Each insert is available in a trio of chipformer types – GD8, CF5 or RF – with the CF5 sintered chip geometry enabling high chip control at light feeds.
A self-aligning tangential clamping system and dowel pin location in the insert seat provide stability and prevent the inserts from being incorrectly fitted.
