Sandvik Coromant QS system now supports parting and grooving
Sandvik Coromant's innovative new range of CoroCut QS toolholders improve stability and part quality when performing parting and grooving operations on sliding-head automatic lathes.
Already well established for conventional turning operations on sliding head machines, the CoroCut QS system now supports parting and grooving.
CoroCut QS is a proven high productivity alternative to conventional toolholders for sliding-head machines, offering rapid tool change times.
In comparison with the 12 steps required when changing conventional one-piece toolholders, the QS system offers a two-step set-up procedure to reduce downtime.
The single screw release design of CoroCut QS reduces tool change times by around 66%, while the patented spring-loaded wedges ensure quick and safe extraction, and reduce the risk of dropping the holder.
The new CoroCut QS holders for parting and grooving are available with tip-seats to suit D, E, F and G size inserts. In total, there are 24 holders in the range.
