Coromant Capto with new spring clamping system, available in C3-C8
Sandvik Coromant will expand its new, patented clamping system for the company's CoroCut 1-2 shanks to include face grooving shanks with over and under coolant through the tool. "Using its extremely rigid and precise spring clamping mechanism, the upgraded CoroCut 1-2 ensures truly secure and efficient parting and grooving," said a company spokesperson.
"Using Coromant Capto and other plug and play adaptors, coolant has never been so simple to connect. The new spring clamp design not only ensures high rigidity and a precise clamping force to secure inserts, but also eliminates the nuisance of a top clamp screw."
Easy and correct clamping every time
"The shanks' spring loaded clamping system allows correct clamping every time," said a company spokesperson. Its internal spring stack eliminates the need for a torque wrench and clamping screw. The insert tip seat has a rail for 0.157 in (4 mm) and larger inserts. In addition, the shanks' new alloy material improves rigidity and fatigue resistance by 12 percent over the previous version.
Over and under coolant is available on all tools including Coromant Capto holders, shanks and QS shanks. Over coolant improves chip control and even insert life; under coolant controls the temperature and reduces wear. Coolant connections are easy when using Sandvik Coromant's plug and play adaptors including Coromant Capto, HSK, and VDI.
Coromant Capto is offered in C3-C8 in insert widths 0.079-0.394 in (2-10 mm). The 1.25 inch shank uses insert widths 0.236 in, 0.315 in and 0.394 in (4, 6 and 8 mm). QS shanks are available in 0.75 and 1 in, insert widths 0.079-0.394 in. "All types are designed to go into Sandvik Coromant adaptors with no additional plumbing needed, or into standard lathes using our coolant connection kits without an adaptor," said the spokesperson.
