Product catalog summary
Overview: The Flipcut™ tool by Cogsdill Tool Products, Inc. is engineered for back-spotfacing and chamfering operations from one side in a single setup, suitable for both inch and metric hole sizes.
Specifications: Available for inch hole sizes from 0.281 to 1.344 inches and metric sizes from 7.00 to 34.00 mm, the tool features a durable brazed carbide cutter and a unique over-center cam action for mechanical closure, enhanced by centrifugal force.
Design Features: The tool operates with right-hand rotation to open the cutter and left-hand rotation to close it, designed for rugged use with internal coolant capability for certain sizes.
Tool Options: Two standard cutters are available: one for back-spotfacing and front-chamfering, and another for back- and front-chamfering. Custom designs are available upon request.
Operating Guidelines: Requires sufficient spindle speed to open the cutter and must always be used with coolant. Not suitable for use in a lathe with a static turret; rotation is necessary. After cutting, the tool should be fed off the part before stopping the spindle.
Speeds and Feeds: Coolant flow is essential for lubrication and chip removal. The tool should rotate in both directions, with a maximum feed rate of 0.008 IPR (0.20 mm/rev). For horizontal applications, the tool should run at twice the recommended speed.
Ordering Information: Specific hole and spotface diameters must be specified according to chart sizes. For non-standard sizes, contact Cogsdill Tool Products.
Specifications and Procedures: Operational specifications include spindle speeds from 250 to 600 rpm and a maximum feed rate of 0.008 IPR (0.20 mm/rev). Periodic inspection for cutter axial movement and wear is emphasized, with necessary adjustments to the retaining screw.
Maintenance: Regular inspection is recommended to ensure optimal performance, including checking for cutter wear and replacing or sharpening as needed. The retaining screw should also be inspected for wear or damage.
Operation and Assembly: Detailed assembly instructions include the placement of spacers and insertion of the retaining screw, ensuring minimal axial movement while allowing free hinging. The correct axial gap should be between 0.005 to 0.010 inches (0.013 to 0.025 mm).
Cutter Regrinding: Instructions for regrinding the standard cutter include specific angles and measurements for grinding and honing the cutting edge, with a hone cutting edge radius of approximately 0.003 inches (0.08 mm).
Ordering Information: Customers should refer to the tool specification charts for ordering. Standard tools are available for quick delivery, while special tools require a quotation.
Contact Information: Contact details for Cogsdill Tool Products are provided, including addresses, phone numbers, and website information for both USA and UK locations.

■ Cutter flips open to machine back spotface or back chamfer; flips back to closedposition for tool withdrawal. Can also be used for cutting front chamfers. No refixturing or repositioning of workpiece required. ■ Right-hand rotation opens cutter; left-hand rotation (spindle reversal) closes cutter. ■ Unique tool design: over-center cam action initiates positive mechanical closureof the cutter, aided by centrifugal force, for superior tool performance. ■ Brazed carbide cutter construction. Cutter is rigidly supported for enhanced accuracy and long tool life. ■ Both cutter and arbor are designed...

The Flipcut > TM tool is designed to perform back-spotfacing or back-chamfering operations in one set-up . Thecutter extends, with right-hand rotation of the tool, to cut the back spotface or back chamfer. Left-hand spindle rotation initiates positive mechanical closure of the cutter; the closing action is assisted by centrifugal force. When the cutter is fully enclosed within the arbor pocket, the tool can be easily withdrawn from the bore. The Flipcut > TM tool is designed for rugged use on all types of plant equipment and in all kinds of manufacturingenvironments. Tools for hole sizes from...

٢֠ Always ensure that the cutter rotates freely in the arbor and that no end float can be detected. This canbe accomplished by adjusting the retaining screw (see photo below) until the cutter binds, then backing off approximately 5 degrees. Using the locking screw, lock the retaining screw at this position. ■ Ensure that the spindle speed is sufficient to allow the cutter to open. ■ After the cut has been completed, and the tool withdrawn from the hole, make sure that enough coolantis supplied to the end of the tool to flush away any remaining chips that might prevent the tool from opening and...

When the cutter is worn, loosen the locking screw (refer to the drawing below). Remove both locking screwand pad. Loosen the retaining screw and remove the worn cutter. The cutter may be reground (see page 12, ٓCutter Regrinding) or replaced.Clean all components thoroughly and apply light lubricating oil to each part for assembly.Referring to diagram belowԅ > Place and hold (2) spacers at the front and rear barrel diameter of the cutter while assembling intothe slot on the arbor. > With cutter and spacers in place, insert retaining screw through the threaded hole in the endof the arbor and then...
