Tungaloy Boring Toolholder Features Advanced Chip Evacuation
The TungBoreMini series includes an optimized chipbreaker and an advanced internal coolant supply system, which features two dedicated outlets for effective cooling and chip evacuation.
Tungaloy Corp. announces the expansion of its TungBoreMini series, introducing a toolholder for a minimum machining diameter of 8 mm (0.315″). This addition is said to enhance versatility, reduce toolchange frequency and increase productivity with advanced chip evacuation and internal coolant supply.
TungBoreMini is a versatile and multifunctional tool line capable of performing drilling and OD/ID turning operations without the need for tool exchanges. According to Tungaloy, this versatility results in significant time savings and helps manufacturers reduce tooling costs, ultimately leading to better operational efficiency.
The newly introduced 8-mm diameter toolholder further extends the existing diameter range of 10 to 32 mm, making it well suited for machining small components, improving efficiency in complex parts and allowing users to take on more detailed work that requires precision.
Key features of the TungBoreMini series include an optimized chipbreaker, designed to provide superior chip control across various cutting depths, and an advanced internal coolant supply system, which features two dedicated outlets for effective cooling and chip evacuation. One outlet is positioned close to the cutting edge, while the other directs coolant axially, providing efficient chip removal and maintaining cutting stability.
