TURNING TOOLS

Turning Holders

ISO external turning toolholders for turning, facing, profiling and general lathe machining.

Select the holder by clamping system, insert shape, tool hand, approach angle and shank size. Match the toolholder to the selected ISO insert and machining conditions before finalising the setup.

HOLDER SELECTION

Choose by Clamping System

The clamping system affects insert retention, accessibility, rigidity and suitability for different turning conditions.

BEFORE SELECTING A HOLDER

Check the Complete Tooling Setup

The holder must match both the insert and the machine setup.

Insert Shape

Confirm compatibility with the selected CNMG, DNMG, TNMG, VNMG, WNMG, SNMG or other ISO insert shape.

Clearance Angle

Match the holder to positive or negative insert geometry.

Tool Hand

Select right-hand, left-hand or neutral configuration according to feed direction and machine setup.

Approach Angle

Consider component geometry, shoulder access, cutting force direction and facing requirement.

Shank Size

Match holder shank size to the machine tool post or turret capacity.

Machining Operation

Confirm whether the holder will be used for turning, facing, profiling or a combination of operations.
