Turning tool
MAPAL

During hard turning the stiffness of the overall system is crucial in relation to the tool life that can be achieved. Here, above all, relative movement between indexable insert and workpiece must be avoided.

This is where the new MAPAL clamping system SolidGrip comes into play. It comprises special inserts with round clamping groove and matched clamping jaws. Due to the form locking between the insert and the clamping plate, the insert sits firmly in the high precision insert seats on the SolidGrip tool holder. This situation is ensured by the optimal force distribution due to the special geometrical arrangement.
