Sandvik Coromant’s CoroCut QD system is designed for machining deep grooves and parting off with long overhangs. Based on the company’s Q-Cut and CoroCut ranges, the system combines tools and inserts with rigid clamping and efficient coolant supply. The tool material offers high fatigue resistance, while the inserts provide quality coating adhesion and high edge-line security for longer tool life in parting off operations. The tool tip seat features a backstop so that the insert stays in position, preventing the seat from wearing down when the insert is indexed. Plug-and-play adapters ease the connection of over and under coolant. According to the company, the coolant controls the temperature at the cutting edge to resist wear and promote chip evacuation, while the rigid clamping mechanism simplifies insert changes. The system is said to ensure process security and ease handling for increased machining efficiency.
