Clamping the Insert Face Machining Guide

Clamping an insert correctly into the holder Tool Selection - Follow these recommendations is necessary for stable machining. to choose the right tool for high peformance.

  • Be sure that the seat is clean of dirt and swarf.
  • In the first stage of clamping, ease the insert gently into place. Make sure that the prismatic surfaces match. Screw Clamping Torque W Insert Width Nxm
