Selecting inserts
To match the correct insert to the cutting condition,
the following variables must be considered:
- Width of cut (width of insert)
- Chip breaker style
- Lead angle
- Corner radii
- Carbide grade
Width of cut (WOC) and depth of cut (DOC)
- To select the proper width and depth of cut, the application must be considered
The ratio DOC = 8 x WOC can be used when cutting steel
For example, the maximum DOC for a 3mm wide insert is 24mm for parting a 48mm diameter bar
- Neutral inserts with a 0 lead angle provide the maximum DOC
Lead angle
- Use inserts with a lead angle to minimize pips or burrs
- Inserts are available with either R or L hand, with the point of angle toward the fnished surface
- Increasing the lead angle reduces the pips or burrs, but will also produce a poor surface fnish and short tool life
Neutral inserts are recommended when a pip/burr is acceptable
Insert support
- Integral shank toolholders offer the best rigidity
- A self clamp holder is only recommended for radial machining
- A screw clamp holder is recommended for axial and radial machining

Blade or holder size
To minimize vibration and deflection choose:
- Blade or toolholder with the smallest possible overhang (Tmax)
- Toolholder with the maximum shank size (H)
- Blade height that is larger than Tmax
- Blade or toolholder with the maximum blade width (largest possible insert seat size)
90 Mounting
The insert must be mounted 90 to the workpiece to obtain perpendicular surfaces
and minimize vibration.
Selecting preference priority
- The center height of the insert should be maintained within 0.1mm
- The parting operation should be as close to the chuck as possible
Selecting preference priority
- Use insert with 0 lead angle
- Use the largest blade size possible
- The smallest appropriate width of cut

Machining
- Consistency of speed and feed improve performance
- Apply coolant abundantly (excluding Ceramic AB30)
- Secure insert into clean pockets
- Cutting forces on soft workpiece materials may be insuffcient to push insert well into pocket.
Tap insert into place using a plastic hammer.
- On a conventional lathe, lock the carriage to prevent axial motion during parting-off
Usage
- Replace worn inserts immediately
The price of a new insert is much less than the risk of damage from continuing with a worn edge
- Replace blade or damaged pockets
- Never try to repair damaged pockets
Chip breaker
The chip breakers function is to narrow the chip it occurs near the cutting edge
at high temperature.
Producing chips that are narrower than the groove gives the following advantages:
- Eliminates friction with groove walls
- Prevents chip overload
- Permits higher feeds
- Produces unscratched surfaces, eliminating additional facing
Curling chips into compact spirals or breaking chips simplifies disposal
Curling is affected by the chip breaker type and the machining conditions
Select an appropriate chip breaker for the specific application

Practical trouble shooting
To reduce burr
- On a CNC machine, reduce feed by 50% when approaching
center stub diameters WOC
- Check center height of cutting edge
- Use insert with lead angle
- If 0 lead angle must be used for whatever reason,
apply narrow WOC
- Apply a supporting part-catcher (or adjust concentricity)
- For hollow bars, it is better to machine chamfers using ID
boring tool prior to parting operation. (See picture)
To improve surface finish
- Increase cutting speed
- Use neutral inserts
- Select chip breaker that provides optimum chip control
- Use coated carbide
- Improve coolant application
- Eliminate chatter
To improve flatness
- Check inserts and replace any that show wear
- Use neutral inserts
- Use largest blade possible, i.e., TGB 32- instead of TGB 26-
- Increase blade thickness and insert width
- Minimize blade overhang
- Check alignment and perpendicularity of tool to machine axis
- Optimize workpiece chucking
- Lock the carriage on manually operated lathes
- Apply coolant abundantly (excluding Ceramic AB30)
- Reduce feed
To improve chip control
- Replace worn inserts
- Choose a more appropriate chip breaker
- Use a neutral insert
- Check alignment and perpendicularity of tool to machine axis
- Apply coolant abundantly
- Increase feed
- At initial groove depth, interrupt feed momentarily to let the chip
enter slot

To improve chip control
- Part-off as close to chuck as possible
- Minimize blade overhang
- Improve chucking and monitor tool setup
- Change the RPM
- Increase the feed
- Lock the carriage on manually operated lathes
To prevent chipping of cutting edge
- Use appropriate carbide grade and geometry
- Use insert with larger corner radii
- Reduce feed at end of cut
- Eliminate chatter
- Increase speed
- Use strong grade
- Increase tool and setup rigidity
- Eliminate built-up edges
To prevent or reduce built-up edge
- Use appropriate carbide grade and geometry
- Increase speed
- Reduce feed
- Increase coolant fow/concentration
Parting on eccentric tubes
- Inserts with 4 degree lead angle are usually recommended
for tubes; however, the combination of an eccentric bore and
a robust machine may increase feed-snap on breakthrough
and damage the cutting edge. Changing to an 8 degree lead
angle insert will regulate the breakthrough.

Toolholder or blade size
To minimize risk of vibration and deflection always choose:
- Toolholder or blade with the smallest possible overhang
- Toolholder with maximum shank dimension
90 Mounting
To minimize risk of vibration and deflection:
It is very important that the insert is mounted at 90 to the center line of the workpiece in order to obtain
a perpendicular surface and reduce the risk of vibration

Selecting inserts
Insert width
- Insert width strongly affects strength
- For most effcient machining select the widest possible insert
- Chipbreaking range depends on insert width
- A narrow width improves chipbreaking at lower feed rates
- Wide inserts and strong blades require high forces and feed rates to achieve a frontal clearance angle
Corner radii - Lateral turning
- Choose large corner radii for long tool life
- Choose small corner radii to reduce cutting load and lower feed with narrow inserts
Turning feed
- Feed depends on chipbreaking range of the insert
- Maximum feed depends on insert width and is relative to the maximum load
- High feed with small corner radii may reduce tool life
- Maximum feed should not exceed the corner radii
- For better chip formation when grooving, feed can be interrupted at small intervals
Small radii - Strong side forces
Large radii - Small side forces
Maximum feed:
fmax= W0.075

Depth of cut
- Minimum depth of cut equals the corner radii
- Maximum depth of cut depends on maximum possible load
- Depth of cut depends on chipbreaking range
Principle of turning with T-CLAMP ULTRA PLUS tools
The clearance angle is a function of the side cutting forces and is not constant as is the case
with ISO inserts.
Maximum depth of cut: apmax= W 0.8
Large depth of cut causes large defection and large frontal clearance
With a small depth of cut the defection and frontal clearance may be too small
Technical Guide - Turning & Grooving
Clearance angle between the insert
and workpiece
The deflection is influenced by:
- Feed: f
- Depth of cut: ap
- Overhang: T
- Cutting speed: Vc
- Workpiece material
When these factors are properly applied,
the insert () creates a Wiper action providing
excellent surface quality and tolerance

Technical Guide - Turning & Grooving
Finishing operation: Diameter compensation
- A compensation factor for the fnish diameter must be used in the fnal machining operation. After grooving to the
desired diameter, the machining direction changes to longitudinal turning. At this point defection occurs.
If machining continues without tool compensation, corner A will penetrate the workpiecs as a result of the
defection phenomenon (See picture). This will result in two different diameters D1 from the grooving operation
and D2 from the turning operation. The difference between D1 and D2 is the change in diameter,
designated at Delta .
Tool compensation factor is calculated as shown:
- Using the compensation factor will eliminate the difference in part diameter.
Follow this simple procedure during machining
- The diagrams show experimental results for specifc machining conditions. These are sample values that will
vary with different workpiece materials and different holder types
Recommendation:
Measure the value for your fnishing operation in a short test using your selected fnishing conditions
Do not run your test using the fnal diameter
1. Groove to the final diameter 2. Pull the tool back, a distance
equal to the value of /2
3. Continue the finish turning

Multifunction operations
The multifunctional tools can operate in a sequence of grooving and turning modes. Moving from turning to
grooving requires consideration of each basic principle. This will eliminate the possibility of insert breakage.
In this situation, customers must release the side defection necessary in turning but not recommended in grooving.
Machining a radius or chamfer
The machining of a corner with a radius or a chamfer larger than the radius of the
insert always requires the combination of movement in two directions. Problems such as insert breakage result
when this combined operation is used while the insert is plunged into the workpiece with material on all sides.
Insert breakage is caused by forces acting simultaneously in two different directions as shown in F1 and F2.
Recommended procedure to optimize machining and eliminate insert breakage

Machining between walls
One of the most important advantages of the T-CLAMP ULTRA PLUS system is the ability to machine
between walls.
To achieve the best result - follow the recommended sequence:
Leave steps near the wall. Do not arrive at the same Z value!!!
Eliminating a Hanging Ring
When turning at the end of a bar or toward a recess between two walls, a 'Hanging Ring' may be formed.
To eliminate the Hanging Ring:

Optimizing internal machining
1. The frst pass uses one corner for roughing
2. The other corner is used on the return path for semi-fnishing or fnishing
3. Tool position looks out of sequence with the amount of material that is removed
4. Rapid position back to initial groove and then continue with face turning toward the center
Improving internal turning in a blind hole
Internal turning in a blind hole brings about the problem of chip evacuation.
When the tool reaches the rear side wall, chips may be caught between the wall and the insert, causing breakage.
Two solutions that can eliminate this problem:
Technical Guide - Turning & Grooving
First solution
1. Start by grooving at the rear wall
2. Continue by turning from the
inside toward the outside
Second solution
1. Start by grooving at the rear wall
2. Pull the tool back to the outside
Turn the fnal diameter from
outside toward the groove

Tool selection
Follow these three recommendations for selecting the correct cutting tool:
Tool adjustment
Prior to machining, check and adjust the following tool positions
Choose the widest possible
insert and tool, according to
the cutting width and geometry
to be machined
Choose the shortest toolholder
overhang, according to the
maximum depth required
Choose the tool range with the
largest diameter depending on
the initial grooving diameter
required in the application
Check the cutting-edge
height at center line, take a
light cut toward the center,
and check for a burr
Check parallelism of cutting edge and
the machined surface. Correct position
can guarantee good surface quality
when face turning in both directions

TMTECS small diameter, short solid carbide thread mills
- The TMTECS solid carbide thread mills are used for the production of small internal threads. These thread mills
feature a short 3-tooth cutting zone with 3 futes and a released neck between the cutting zone and the shank.
- This unique tool design offers very precise profles and a high performance TT9030 submicron carbide grade
with PVD titanium aluminum nitride coating. The very short profle exerts a low force which minimizes tool bending.
This facilitates parallel and high thread precision for the entire length.
- Compared to taps, the TS-THREAD is more accurate, thread machining is substantially faster
and there is no danger of a broken tap being stuck in the hole.
Thread mill vs. Tap
Features
- Minimum thread size: M1.4x0.3 (1.1mm bore diameter) up to M20x2.50
- 2xD and 3xD threading lengths
- High cutting speeds
- Short cycle time
- Low cutting forces due to the short contact profle
resulting in accurate and parallel thread
- Prevents oval threads near thin walls
- No more dealing with broken taps
- Reliable threading in blind holes
- Excellent performance on hardened steel, high temperature alloys
and titanium

T-TAP grade
Chamfer
The tap chamfer is the tapering of the threads to distribute cutting action over several teeth.
It generally reduces cutting forces, increases tool life and allows higher cutting speed. When the tap enters the
hole and begins to cut, each tooth in the chamfer gradually enlarges the thread in the part. Only the frst full
thread behind the chamfer produces the fnished size of the thread.
The teeth beyond the frst full thread serve to guide and support the tap as it creates the desired complete
threaded depth of the tapped hole. Chamfer lengths are selected based upon the type of hole to be tapped.

T-DRILL
On first hole please retract the drill after drilling to a depth of 3mm - 6mm
and check it has produced a small core within 0.2mm - 0.7mm
If a core is not created: - It can cause insert breakage and vibration when drilling
- Please reverse the drill body 180 degrees in tool post and try again
If core size is a higher than recommended values:
- Please adjust offsets to bring core to correct size
- Failure to do so can cause overload and vibration during drilling

0.02mm
Set up the drill in a
collet chuck - the total
run out must not
exceed 0.02mm
Clamping
Set the drill for point angle (140) and
1st clearance angle (10-17)
Keep the cutting edge in the horizontal plane
Grind the 1st clearance angle to a depth of
0.02 - 0.03mm, try spark-out 2 - 3 times
to keep the lip height within 0.02mm
when finishing
Grinding for 1st clearance angle
Set the drill for 2nd clearance angle
(25 - 30)
Grind the 2nd clearance faces of both
cutting edges one by one in order to
make the intersection between the
1st and 2nd clearance parallel with
cutting edge
Grinding for 2nd clearance angle
Thinning
Keep workhead horizontal
Using height gauge, keep two corners of
cutting edge horizontal
Rotate the drill to 50- 70 to keep the
chisel edge vertical
Set wheel location for thinning to 30- 50 with reference to drill axis
Edge part of thinning must be away from drill center by 0.04 - 0.07mm
Honing
After making negaland as shown,
finish with diamond hand lapper
Tool life can be affected by the surface roughness of negaland
Make uniform width of negaland
Use very fine hand stone (#1500)
SHO, SHD : 0.03 - 0.08mm
BHD : 0.06 - 0.08mm
Negaland width:
Check point Recommendation
Is the lip height within 0.02mm?
Is there any defect in cutting edge?
Is the negaland fine and uniform?
Recommend wet grinding
Diamond wheel: 250 - 400mesh
Diamond file: 140mesh
Diamond hand lapper: 800 - 1500mesh

Cutting edge for drilling
Insert positioning
Coolant pressure
Optimization of chip shape
Set-up
Cutting edge for drilling should be positioned in the center of tool body.
Pressure must be above 2 bar in 3xD drills, regardless of drilling diameter. (Optimal pressure is above 5 bar)
Material with low carbon content (low carbon steel / low carbon alloy steel)
- High speed machining is recommended to make the chips thinner as many problems are caused by thick chips
Material with medium to high carbon content (carbon steel / alloy steel)
-If too tight? Increase speed if the speed is slow or reduce feed
-If too loose? Reduce speed if the speed is high or increase feed
Core
/2
Please check formation of core and its size after drilling 3mm to 6mm depth
and diameter. Core should be within 0.15 - 0.45mm.
Please adjust Y-axis of tool body by using clamping unit if it is available
or reverse the tool body 180 and fix it into a turret to check the core again
if clamping unit is not available.
If a core does not appear,
- It can cause breakage of insert and vibration when drilling or turning
If the size of core is over the recommended limit.
- It will cause overload and vibration

Setting process
1) Rotate the adjustment screws
1 turn counter-clockwise (CCW).
2) Rotate the clamping screw CCW
from the top and/or clockwise from
the bottom, turning both sides
simultaneously.
3) Remove the insert. Clean the insert
and the pocket. Place the sharp
edge on the outer position.
4) Press the insert against the back
stopper and the two adjustment pins.
Tighten the clamping wedge by
rotating the clamping screw CW
from the top or CCW from the bottom.
There are two optional setting mechanisms: a comparison micrometer and a setting device.
TaeguTec designation: TB-SETTING L450
- Low cost solution and readily available for small workshops
- Prone to damage the cutting edge therefore not recommended
Comparison micrometer with dial gauge
- Shorter setting time
- Modular system
- Higher accuracy
- No risk of damaging the cutting edge
Setting device, located between centers
1) Set the micrometer to the correct diameter using
the precision blocks.
2) Adjust the frontal diameter and back taper by
turning the adjustment screw C.W.
The frontal diameter should be larger than the
rear diameter by approximately 0.015 mm.
TaeguTec is offering a mechanical setting device.
It enables an easy, quick and accurate adjustment.
Due to its modular construction, it can be used for
standard as well as for special and more
complicated reamer adjustments.

Choosing cutter diameter
The best cutter diameter (D) should be selected
upon the workpiece dimensions (a).
D
1.3 - 1.5 WOC
If the machine power is limited or the workpiece is
too wide, select a cutter diameter that takes more
than two passes or that matches the power of
machine.
When the appropriate cutter diameter is not available,
proper cutter position will give good results.
WOC = 3/4D
Cutter position
Conventional milling (Up milling)
The feed direction of the workpiece is opposite to that of cutter rotation.
The chip thickness starts at zero and increases to the maximum at the
end of cut. In Up milling, the insert wear is severe with excessive friction
and high temperature caused by the rubbing or burnishing effect in the
insert.
Channel milling (Up and down milling)
The cutter position is in the middle of the workpiece and the cutting force
is alternately changed in the radial direction. It causes vibration when
the spindle structure is weak. Channel milling is a combination of
conventional and climb milling. When channel milling is necessary use
positive geometry cutters at reduced speeds and feeds with coolant.
Climb milling (Down milling)
Climb milling is normally recommended.
The feed direction of workpiece is the same as that of cutter rotation.
So the chip thickness starts from the maximum and decreases to zero
at the end of cut. The tool life is long with less heat and minimum work
hardening of workpiece.

Rake angle
- Easy chip removal
- Apply to all materials under 300 brinell hardness
Especially on light setups and low HP 40 Taper
or smaller milling machines.
- Apply to cast iron which gives short chip.
Selection of entering angle
Entering angle of face mill is usually less than 90 for easy
chip fow and increased edge strength.
Generally, entering angle are 45 and 75 with the most
popular entering angle being 45. This is economical and
enables increased effciency of power consumption in milling
from fnishing to roughing.
45 entering angle is suitable for heavy cutting and provides
excellent cutting edge strength. With 45 entering angle,
axial cutting force is nearly equal to radial cutting force; this is
very effective for long overhang milling.
When corner damage is likely to occur in milling of cast iron,
45 entering angle is recommended.
When it is diffcult to position the cutter owing to workpiece
shape, bigger entering angles are preferable.
- Positive rake angle type is popular and this increases machine effciency and reduces heat generation.
It is possible to reduce machine damage compared to machining with negative rake angle insert,
which require high power consumption.
- For milling hard materials that require high edge strength, negative rake angle inserts are preferable.

Cutter entry
Climb milling enters the workpiece with a thick chip and exits with a thin chip. Honed inserts are recommended.
Conventional milling enters the workpiece with a thin chip and exits with a thick chip.
Sharp inserts are recommended. Climb milling should be used whenever possible, especially when replacing
high speed steel slotting cutters. On machines with backlash eliminators, climb milling is preferred.
Cutter mounting
The use of drive fange sets are recommended to prevent denting of arbor drive keys and to provide added
stability during increased metal removal rates.
Insert mounting
Manually place insert in pocket and seat in place by using a wooden or plastic hammer. This will ensure self
positioning for insert repeatability and minimal radial runout. Pockets must be clean and free of debris prior
to installation.

ER - Top clamping nut DIN 6499
Description
The friction ER Nut has a unique two piece exclusive friction mechanism combining radial and angular
self-centering movements.
Features
- Unique two piece friction bearing
- Radial and angular foat for better concentricity
- Powerful gripping force, 50-100% higher than standard ER nut due to the friction bearing mechanism
- Balanced for higher spindle speed due to unique extractor teeth design
- Compact design - general dimensions and size range are the same as the standard nut sealed design
for use with sealed collets
Operation
To insert collet: Always assemble the collet into the nut before mounting onto the collet chuck.
Inserting procedure
Insert the collet slantwise, ftting the two protruding extractor teeth (A) into the collet groove (B).
Place the two parts onto a clean and horizontal surface.
Press down with your thumb on the back end of the collet until it clicks into place (C).
Important
Never insert the collet parallel to the extractor ring. This will chip or break the teeth of the extractor.
When unclamping the nut, the collet will self release from the chuck by means of the extractor teeth.
Extracting procedure
1. Align the diamond-shaped engraved logo which is on the silver ring (D) to any of the key slots (E) of the nut.
2. Place the nut with the collet facing down on a clean and horizontal work surface.
3. Insert a screwdriver vertically between the nut slots and the collet on the reverse side of the diamond shaped
engraved logo (D).
4. Tilt the screwdriver outwards while helping the extraction by pushing the back of the collet in the opposite direction (F).

Read the results for the unbalance angle orientation and the gr x mm unbalance value.
5. Loosen the 3 locking screws on the angle reference ring and align the two balancing rings with the measured
unbalance value. Rotate both balancing rings to the unbalance angle on the angle reference ring (or to the laser
mark on balancing machines with a laser indicator). Tighten the locking screws.
6. Run a second test with the assembled collet chuck and read the results
- Note: The reading should be within tolerance or very close
If the necessary balance on the machine has been achieved, the tool is ready for
operation. If the balance is out of tolerance, one of the following procedures should
be performed:
- First option
: IF unbalance is within 0-3 gr x mm and within 20 from original angle,
THEN increase the original value of gr x mm on the balancing rings according to the reading on the machine,
without changing the original angle position.
- Second option
: IF unbalance is within 0-3 gr x mm at an angle of approximately 180 from original angle,
THEN decrease the original value of gr x mm on the balancing rings according to the reading on the machine
without changing the original angle position.
- Third option
: IF unbalance is less than 1 gr x mm at an angle between 20 to 90 from the original angle,
THEN rotate both balancing rings approximately 5 towards the indicated direction.
- Fourth option
: On some balancing machines it is possible to adjust the unbalance by rotating the peak point marked on
the balancing rings to the required angular position.

Grades Classification
The TaeguTec coated grades are produced from a specialized technical process that incorporates CVD and
PVD products that cover a wide cutting range. This range includes grades for high speed machining to heavy
rough machining. Such diversity is possible with TaeguTecs high wear resistant ceramic coating layer that has
characteristics such as chipping-resistance on hard and/or toughened substrates.
CVD coated products have two main coating layers that are strengthened MT CVD TiCN and a microstructure-
controlled Alpha Alumina with specially designed substrate that toughens the cutting edge. The PVD coated
products have been developed with a combination of TiAlN, AlTiN and AlTiCrN that is produced with TaeguTecs
unique process of controlling the nano-scale structure and residual stresses.
Following the coating process, TaeguTec introduces its Gold-Rush concept, this smooth new coating surface
with a shiny yellow color gives the cutting edge lower friction and an anti-adhesion to the material during
machining.
The best performance in each application is a result of selecting the suitable combination of grade and
geometry according to the machining environment. This accounts for the workpiece materials, cutting
conditions, coolants and machine.
