GROOVE-TURNTEXT USER GUIDE Multifunction Operations Machining Between Walls The groove-turn tools are multifunction tools, able to One of the most important advantages of the operate in a sequence of grooving and turning modes. GROOVE-TURN systems is the ability to machine Moving from turning to grooving requires consideration of between walls. To achieve the best results, the basic Grip principle, thereby eliminating the possibility the following sequence is recommended: of insert breakage. In this situation one must release the side deflection which is necessary in turning, but not Roughing recommended in grooving. Plunge to depth of cut. Pull back 0.2 mm radially. Turn longitudinally, retract at the end of the cut by The following machining sequence is suggested:After completing the longitudinal turning, before startingthe grooving, the side deflection must be released.0.2 mm, simultaneously in radial and axial directions.Plunge again and repeat same cycle leaving stepsof 0.2 mm at the shoulders for the finishing cut. Move the tool in the direction opposite that of the feed, Minimum D.O.C. has to be ap≥Rx1.2 (corner radius). approximately 0.1 mm, and return to the original position Finishing without side load. Plunge on the right side, reaching the tangent of the Then, after the deflection has been released and bottom radius. Retract and relieve the tangent point the holder is perpendicular to the workpiece, of the radius on the other side. Retract and machine the grooving operation may start. all of the contour, pulling back by compensation value along the bottom (see page 423).
