Originally titled 'Modular Back Tools System Features a Range of Inserts'
GenSwiss offers the Multidec Back Tool toolholders for turning operations on the subspindle and from an ID tool position. Each holder is center height adjustable to + 0.20”, a critical feature for machines without a Y axis. The fully modular toolholder system features a range of shanks, spacers and insert modules. The system allows for use of Multidec ISO, TOP & CUT 1600 and 3000 series inserts for use in many Swiss-type machining installations. The system allows for use of any CUT 3000 series insert to perform grooving, threading or OD turning on the back side of a Swiss machine. In addition, the toolholder can be equipped with a Cool-Flex MBK adaptor to provide a coolant delivery system for optimal insert lubrication and cooling, longer cutting tool life and improved Swiss-type machining.
Presented by the Precision Machined Products Association and co-presented by Production Machining and Modern Machine Shop, PMTS gives you the opportunity to attend a show that’s been put together just for you – manufacturers of precision machined parts.
