Modular Turning Tool System for Swiss Machines
September 1, 2024
Tungaloy has updated its ModuMiniTurn modular turning tool system for Swiss machines by adding 30 new round shank toolholders that are suitable for machining the back side of the parts in the sub spindle.
The ModuMiniTurn modular turning tool system incorporates an advanced coupling mechanism between the modular head and tool shank, providing increased repeating accuracy for the cutting point. This system achieves repeatability accuracy within the 5 µm range, minimizing downtime during tooling changeovers. The system offers standard modular heads for a range of applications, including forward turning, back turning, grooving, thread turning, parting and productive Y-axis turning.
The round shank toolholders are designed to fit the cylindrical shank toolholders in most Swiss type lathes. Just as with the existing ModuMiniTurn square shank toolholders, the new round shank toolholders also feature high repeatability accuracy, which reduces downtime.
The modular heads for the round shank toolholders have a QR12 coupling connection and are available for forward turning, grooving and thread turning applications. The forward turning modular heads come in three standard cutting angle styles of L for 95°, U for 93° and Q for 107.5°, allowing operators to select optimal cutting angles for operations simply by swapping the modular cutting heads for the inserts.
The shank diameters are available in 16 mm (.630"), 19.05 mm (3/4") and 20 mm (.787").
