Applications
This turning tool opens up flexible applications in the industrial processing of non-ferrous materials. It is excellently suited for turning processes where aluminum components or various plastics are machined in a continuous cut. The exceptionally sharp cutting edge allows for the efficient production of clean contours and dimensionally accurate diameters.
Special features
The positive DCGT insert shape is designed for a smooth cutting action, helping to keep cutting forces low during operation. The uncoated RT100 solid carbide ensures that the cutting edge maintains a high degree of sharpness, which provides a distinct advantage when processing materials that are prone to built-up edges, such as aluminum.
