Tungaloy has expanded its ModuMini-Turn exchangeable-head modular turning tool system for Swiss machines

Tungaloy's ModuMini-Turn exchangeable-head modular turning tool system for Swiss machines adds new cutting heads for turning, grooving, and threading on Swiss machines.
The new cutting heads uses the Y-axis feed, instead of conventional X axis motions, to machine small parts more effectively, while eliminating chip bird-nesting.
The cutting heads enter the cut sideways, in the Y-axis direction, into the barstock. This new approach allows the insert to be set with the chipbreaker on the insert rake facing downward, directing the chips, aided also by gravity, downward and away from the cutting point, helping to prevent bird-nesting, and ensure quality surface finishes, said the company.
In addition, the downfacing insert arrangement allows the brunt of the cutting force to be absorbed in the longitudinal direction.
