Tungaloy has expanded its range of internal and external toolholders for the EcoTurn small-insert series. The line now includes 40 toolholders. The EcoTurn inserts are dimensionally small but have insert thickness and chipbreakers identical to the regular-sized ISO turning inserts, making them capable of providing cutting performance and fracture resistance similar to the company’s regular-sized inserts. The inserts are suitable for general turning operations that require a depth of cut less than or equal to 0.120" (3.0 mm).
The toolholders for these inserts are designed to accommodate their small dimensions. By expanding the range of its internal and external toolholders, the EcoTurn series can now cover the same steel and stainless steel turning applications as regular-sized ISO inserts, according to the company.
