A special cut-off system based on 16 mm long and with PVD Tiger coatings, if required, has been added to Walter GB’s GX16 parting off monoblock toolholder range.
Designed for the production of small parts on Swiss-type machines, the new development is, however, equally applicable to parting-off applications on standard lathes.
With a cutting tool holder in monoblock design having a permanently integrated screw clamp, the locking screw has a 20 degree incline in both radial and axial directions for easy insert changeover. Accessibility is the major benefit when utilising these toolholders.
Available in 2, 2.5 and 3 mm grooving widths, two insert variants are available both with very sharp cutting edges - CF4 precision sintered and CF6 peripheral ground.
Also offered with PVD Tiger grade designations WSP43 and WSM33, the new cut-off system is ideal for machining all types of steel, cast iron and alloys including difficult-to-machine materials.
