Precision Tooling for External Turning in CNC Swiss type Automatic Lathes
Tooling with WhizFix
clamping system
- when access is best from the back side
Tooling with Centre lock screw
- when access is best from the front side
One insert - two clamping systems
WhizCut patented tool holder
WhizCut provides an efficient solution to the problem of limited space when
indexing inserts in a modern CNC Swiss Type Automatic lathe. Almost all types of
external applications can be performed using two tool holders, one for
axial
turning and one mainly for radial turning (parting off etc.). The
WhizCut tooling system enables each tool holder to clamp up to 40 different kinds of inserts for various
applications.
The WhizFix tool holder system uses a pin and a nut to make it possible to index
or change the insert from the opposite side of the tool holder. The inserts can
be indexed within 15 seconds even without access to the insert, making it the
most effective tooling system on the market today for CNC Swiss automatic lathes.
The WhizCut screw type tool holder system, which utilizes the same inserts as the
WhizFix system, is used when there is no problem accessing the insert from the
insert side of the tool holder.
Fully ground edges for cleaner cuts
WhizCut inserts are specially developed to suit the cutting
conditions in bar feed automatic lathes such as CNC Swiss automatics.
The WhizCut precision inserts are made of
carbide which
results in maximum strength when looking at hardness and wear
resistance. All cutting edges are fully ground and exceptionally
sharp. This, together with the latest types of coating and
suitable cutting geometries, gives WhizCut inserts an excellent
tool life.
Innovative WhizCut inserts, such as the
back-turning inserts,
provide less cutting load and thereby higher precision and less
interruptions in production. WhizCut has a large variety
of standard inserts to cover almost all external
cutting tool applications, and special inserts can easily be produced if the
best geometry is not in the standard range. WhizCut inserts are designed to enable cost-efficient grinding
in order to obtain very competitive prices.
