ACT tooling starter kits at MACH 2010

The Nine9 range of indexable cutting tools enables the user to interchange a wide variety of form tool inserts and grades, with a single toolholder. For the MACH 2010 show, ACT will be offering visitors starter kits that will be available to buy from the company's stand. The starter kit will include a toolholder, three indexable engraving inserts and a torx key. The engraving inserts have two cutting edges and are available with a 45 or 60 degree angle and 0.2 mm radius. The adaptable Nine9 tooling system is cost effective, providing the customer with interchangeable inserts for engraving, spot drilling, centring and corner rounding machining operations. ACT will also be offering promotional packages on its corner rounding insert series. Corner radius inserts are available with radii from 1 to 6 mm; again each tool holder can accommodate different sizes. The corner radius starter kit will include a range of inserts with differing radii to offer customers a cost effective solution for all its machining needs.
