Walter recently introduced the new Walter Cut—Modular System G2612/2622, SX system tools for deep grooving and parting operations.
According to the company, the new system is suitable for grooving and parting-off operations for all machine types, ranging from small to large diameters. The G2612/2622 allows users to simply replace the module to change to a different operation or insert size, without removing the holder from the machine. The result is decreased production times and costs.
In addition, these new modules allow all GX and SX style inserts for radial and axial grooving to be used in the same holder.
The new Walter Cut tools come in two versions, the G2612 (0°) and the G2622 (90°). Each permits the flexible use of several cutting widths per module on the same base holder and each has cutting widths of 0.079 - 0.315 in. (2-8 mm) and cutting depths of 0.787 - 1.772 in. (20-45 mm).
Shank sizes are 3/4 - 1¼ in. (20-32 mm) in module sizes E20, E25 and E32.
