Chamfers are cut by the Xtra-tec D4580’s pair of double-edged, universal indexable inserts, which feature a multi-layer coating for long tool life. With a hard, nickel-plated surface that protects against wear and corrosion, the tool can be operated with or without internal coolant.
Walter unveils Xtra.tec D4580 all-in-one chamfering tool
Walter GB says that drilling and chamfering in one cost-effective operation is now possible with its Xtra.tec D4580. The chamfering tool can be fitted with solid carbide drills of 4 to 16 mm diameter, enabling users to switch drills for different holes sizes and depths, and for varying materials. This reduces overall tooling costs and tool changes, and compares favourably with the traditional route of using dedicated pilot hole chamfer drills and solid carbide chamfer drills with defined hole diameters and depths.
