WALTER PRESENTS DOUBLE-SERRATED GD GROOVING SYSTEM
With the new Groov·tec™ GD 5011-P grooving system and the GD26 cutting inserts, Walter is offering a new platform for parting off, grooving, copy turning and groove turning. The system, consisting of toolholder and two-edged indexable inserts, is characterized by a patented double-serration profile. This ensures a uniquely stable, positive-locking connection between the tool body and indexable insert. This reliably absorbs lateral forces and prevents the cutting insert from being pushed (…)
