New ISO-EcoTurn Turning Holders for Swiss Machines

Iwaki, Japan –Tungaloy Corporation extends its ‘Eco’nomical small-sized insert series ISO-EcoTurn by introducing toolholders for VNMG1204 inserts. It is aimed at manufacturers seeking both cost efficiency and performance with Swiss-style machining. The inserts feature the identical chipbreaker geometry and thickness of regular-sized inserts to retain the same cutting performance at a depth of cut up to 3.0 mm (.118″), even though downsized for cost efficiency. In addition, toolholders with high pressure through-coolant capability for high-temperature alloy and other difficult-to-cut material applications where chip control is typically challenging are available.

The latest insert is designed for use on Swiss machines. Its lever lock clamp screw is located on the side of the holder, enabling better accessibility for easy insert replacements while the holder is still on the machine’s tool post. The square shank is available in 12×12 (1/2″) and 16×16 (5/8″) size, it can also be used on various machine models. Furthermore, 16×16, 20×20, and 25×25 shank holders are available in an offset-style version for use on standard CNC lathes and turning centers. The latest grades offer excellent cutting performance in a wide variety of applications. The CVD coated grade T9215 for ISO P application area provided stability in machining 400pcs while its tool life was estimated to be 200pcs. Other available grades for productivity are T9225 and AT9530 / GT9530 / NS9530 for ISO P materials, as well as AH630/ AH645 and T6120/ T6130 for ISO M materials.
