THE TECHNOLOGY – ELEVATED GROOVING INSERT BENEFITS FOR YOU Existing grooving insert: The low chip shoulder makes the chip longer, meaning that it partially rubs against the top clamp. – Process reliability and reduced costs thanks to unique DX positive engagement design (the cutting insert does not move; wear and breakages are minimised) – Higher productivity thanks to improved chip breaking (no chip jams, longer tool life) Elevated grooving insert: Protects the top clamp and produces short chips. The chip runs towards the shoulder and is directed into small, thinner chip ribbons. These are easier...
