Note: Initial dimensional adjustments may be required depending on the machining condition.
High rigidity and chip control ensures consistently superior surface finishes
Lack of chip control leads to a poor machined surface finish
Coolant through holders are available for TFX inserts to provide further machining stability
① Coolant stream directed to evacuate chips
② Coolant stream improves insert tool life

The current tool required 4 passes to remove the large amount of material.
TFX machined the same material removal in 1 pass.
The feed rate was reduced to improve chip control.
Cycle time was significantly shortened and tool life increased.
