Axial grooving tool
CoroCut® Sandvik Coromant USA

For components having an axial groove into the component it is important to choose the correct tool holder. The tool holder must be adapted to the bending radius of the groove and should therefore be curved.

CoroCut 1- and 2-edged grooving and turning inserts with GM, TF and RM geometries can be used. For small first cut diameters Q-Cut 151.3 with geometry 7G and 7P can be used. Normal feed methods should be used, see turning of grooves.

The CoroCut MB and CoroTurn XS system are dedicated for a smaller diameter range and is available with face grooving inserts in widths from 1.0-3.0 mm.
