1 cutting edge Parting off

• Parting off
• Grooving

Just a few degrees in the right direction, lead to a new technique, which solves the old and well known system problems like

• Loss of center height
• Opening of insert pocket
• Fatigue of material
• Insert creeping

and increase tool life by 120%, stated by absolute authentic test series, compared with the system passt perfekt.

Grooved parting off edge with reinforced flanks. The deep and spacious chip-through gives excellent chip control. To be used on almost all materials.

IF Geometry with its cutting edge strengthening, ground chamfer is recommended for:

• Alloy steels
• Stainless steels
• Interrupted cuts

The arc shaped cutting edge with its reinforced flanks achieves ideal chips.

Recommended for free cutting and low alloy steels and stainless steels, also to be used on unstable machine tools.

The new IF ALU geometry has got a horizontally ground cutting edge with a flat chip breaker for high speed chip removal. The geometry is positive and sharply ground and is recommended for nonferrous heavy metals, pipes, thinwalled parts, unstable components, free cutting materials and titanium.
