Can Eco-Cut process flat surfaces? < Eco Cut>

Can Eco-Cut process flat surfaces? < Eco Cut>

Category : 

Answer

With Eco-Cut, you can perform processing work on flat surfaces, such as counterboring machining, with a single unit.

Minor diameter High-efficiency machining
Example) When starting Pilot hole φ16 to minor diameter machining, the boring bar usually uses φ12, but EcoCut can use φ16.
With high tool rigidity and flutes designed for chip evacuation, it achieves efficient and stable machining.

Tool rigidity and chip evacuation
  • High tool rigidity
  • Chips are discharged from flutes in the body.
Chips are discharged from grooves in the body.

 Chip discharge path

A Tool diameter φ16
B Pilot hole diameter φ16
  • Low tool rigidity and chattering
  • Chips are discharged from the clearance gap of the body and holes. Prone to chip jamming

Machined surface
Near the bottom of the hole Good processing surface and chip discharge! 

E Near the bottom of the hole
Good processing surface and chip discharge!

Near the bottom of the hole, chips cannot be discharged. Scratches appear on the machined surface 

F Near the bottom of the hole
G Chattering caused during processing

Near the bottom of the hole, chips cannot be discharged.
Scratches appear on the machined surface.



 

EcoCut vs Conventional Processing
Tool aggregation by EcoCut eliminates the need for frequent workpiece reversal and tool changes.
In addition, EcoCut's biggest advantage is the high efficiency of minor diameter turning, which significantly reduces machining time.
