Horn S224 indexable insert system optimized for Swiss-type lathes

Horn has introduced the S224 indexable insert system for grooving and parting-off operations.
The company has revised the insert’s clamping setup for use in Swiss-type lathes. Machinists do not to have to remove the holder to index or change the insert because the clamping screw has been relocated to the side.
Clamping now takes place via a camshaft. This allows the insert to be clamped quickly at either side of the holder without having to remove it. Furthermore, this type of insert also eliminates the need to invest in special quick-change systems.
Holder systems are available in left and right versions as a 16- by 16-mm square shank. All variants of the holder are equipped with an interface for internal coolant supply from above and below.
