Efficient working thanks to rotating indexable inserts
When using conventional tools, the cutting edge is fixed. This means that the user has to stop the machine after a certain amount of time in order to manually rotate the indexable insert and continue the work process. With the Spinworx system, however, this manual interruption is no longer necessary as the indexable insert rotates automatically. This means that the machine can be operated unattended over a longer period of time.
Maximum resource utilization and sustainability
A major advantage of the Spinworx system is that the indexable insert can be fully utilized without having to be interrupted or disposed of. With standard tools, the insert is usually only used 3-4 times before it is replaced. The Spinworx rotation system distributes wear evenly, which reduces material consumption and promotes sustainability. At the same time, the chip is guided evenly across the plate during operation, ensuring continuous use.
Longer service life for demanding materials
The Spinworx system is particularly advantageous for customers who machine demanding materials such as titanium. While conventional tools often only allow short tool life, the rotating indexable insert of the Spinworx system allows working times of up to 10 hours, even with materials that would otherwise require a tool change after a short time. This offers the customer significant added value, both in terms of productivity and cost efficiency.
