Ingersoll’s Form-MasterR inserts are designed for die and mold applications. The double-sided inserts are available in round and serrated styles. Both offer free-cutting geometry and an anti-rotation clamping system. The serrated style expands the tools’ application range to include extended-reach operations and high-temperature alloys. The serrations also increase stability on the cut and enhance chip management, the company says. Through-the-tool coolant is standard on both end mills and face mills.
At its New Product Rollout, Ingersoll showcased a number of options for high-feed machining, demonstrating the strategy’s growing footprint in the industry.
This new quick-change tooling system enables shops to get more production from their Swiss turning centers through reduced tool setup time and matches the performance of a solid tool.
