KGDF: Face grooving

Separate type toolholder (toolholder + blade) and Integral type toolholder are available.

Adaptable to a wide range of face grooving applications by changing blades

Separate type toolholder

Insert clamping system "W grip"

Toolholder

Unique "W Grip" (insert anti-slip structure) provides stable machining quality

1. Prevents abnormal machining surface and / or insert breakage resulting

from slip of insert. Insert Top and bottom profiles

of the part gripped GG 2. Improves repetitive installation accuracy of insert (GDFM and GDFMS inserts are not applicable to KGD external grooving, cut-off and KGDI internal grooving toolholders.) Toolholder

W grip technology

Smooth chip control

For general purpose GM chipbreaker, for high feed grooving GH chipbreaker, for deep grooving DM chipbreaker

Advantages of chipbreaker

GM: General purposeGH: High feed groovingDM: Deep grooving
Smooth surface from cutting edgeGradually raised surface:
to the far side:Keeps curling of chips inConcave part in middle: Concave part in middle:
Enhances breaking of chips andconstant shape.Control chips upward.Enhances breaking of chips.

maintains their evacuation Inflated inner surface: direction constant. Dots jutted out center side: Changes chip shape smoothly. Enhances breaking of chips Stable chip control during and maintains their evacuation

shoulder grooving. direction constant.

Slope portion: Constantly curled chips.

Flat cutting edge line: Improves chip control.

Negative cutting edge line: Smooth surface up to the far
Improvement of strong edge. side standing wall:
Reduces cutting force, enhances
Steep surface near the cutting edge: breaking of chips and maintains
Good chip control during shoulder grooving.their evacuation in constant
direction.
Curved lead edge:
