Detailed Specification
The new Applitec FLO-Tool Backworking tools for sliding head turning machines. Ideally suited to machining parts in the sub-spindle of small turning centres, the new tools offer a host of application possibilities for producing parts on sliding head turning centres such as Tornos, Citizen and Star machines.
The key benefit of the new range of back working tools are the easy centre height adjustment facility and the diverse selection of tool holder solutions available.
In addition to the standard line of ISO insert holders, tool holders are available for 16ER threading inserts, collet adaptors, boring tools and also insert holders that will accept the range of Applitec inserts.
The latest addition to the Applitec line uses the twin screw Applitec 760/750 and 740/730 inserts from the TOP-Line range whilst a single screw version from the ECO-Line program is also available. The Applitec insert range offers a highly diverse variation of cutting geometries and grades that now include the latest laser generated 764ZXB range.
The wide choice of insert grades and geometries permit the Applitec line to be applied to a comprehensive range of materials, machining applications and parameters. Furthermore, the serrated inserts pocket corresponds with the ridged insert to improve insert location, clamping rigidity and overall performance.
