Recommended chipbreakers From a holder rigidity standpoint, we recommend machining from the external diameter toward the internal diameter.

External diameter side → Internal diameter side Internal diameter side → External diameter side

Feed direction Feed direction Cutting point Cutting point When machining from internal diameter to external diameter, the principal cutting force takes up less of the insert so it will become less rigid.

  • During face traverse machining, if the first groove is within the valid machining diameter range, there will not be any limitations from the second and later passes.
  • Choose the lower limit of the recommended cutting conditions for the chipbreaker and straighten and discharge the chip. (In face grooving, broken chips can easily get caught in the groove and cause a problem.)
  • Break chips by step feeding.

Recommended chipbreakers

If the prepared hole machining diameter is too small, use a low feed type chipbreaker ML type or GL type, that will make the chip curls smaller for efficient chip evacuation.
