Two for every eventuality<br />

Restructured boring and precision boring<br />

tools from WALTER<br />

To simplify handing for users, WALTER has restructured<br />

its tooling systems for boring and precision boring and<br />

changed the designations it uses. Its two-fl ute boring<br />

tools are now called WALTER Boring MEDIUM (working range<br />

between 20-153mm) and WALTER BoringMAXI (working<br />

range between 150-640mm). There is a widely diverse<br />

selection of indexable inserts available for the two<br />

boring tools, making use of different cutting materials and<br />

positive geometries. These cover the entire spectrum of<br />

metal materials for coarse to medium machining operations.<br />

WALTER Boring MEDIUM comes with NTC modular and<br />

ScrewFit adapters in cartridge versions for CC and WC shaped<br />

ISO indexable inserts. Both the adapter systems are short<br />

and consequently stable, affording outstanding concentricity<br />

properties and process reliability, even under diffi cult<br />

application conditions such as inclined boreholes, stepped<br />

boreholes, spectacle-shaped bores and so on. Positive<br />

locking cartridge fi xtures prevent lift-off or<br />

displacement even in this type of situation. The large<br />

diameter range of the WALTER Boring MAXI is implemented<br />

using an exchangeable bridge module.<br />

The single-fl uted precision boring tools WALTER<br />

<strong>Precision</strong> MEDIUM und WALTER <strong>Precision</strong> MAXI have also<br />

been restructured. As their new designation suggests, these<br />

have now been adapted in line with the boring tools in terms<br />

of their diameter graduations and working ranges. The<br />

WALTER <strong>Precision</strong> MEDIUM series additionally offers<br />

automatic imbalance compensation, permitting cutting<br />

speeds of up to 2000 m/min. Both WALTER precision<br />

tools permit backlash-free precision nonius setting up to<br />

precisely 0.002 mm. For special precision machining<br />

operations, alongside carbide industrial inserts, CBN and<br />

PCD cutting materials with a positive geometry are also<br />

available.<br />

As both the WALTER Boring and WALTER <strong>Precision</strong><br />

series have the same external dimensions, they offer two<br />

additional benefi ts which should not be underestimated:<br />

Firstly the programming input is reduced, and secondly no<br />

separate collision checks need to be performed. Accessories<br />

such as adapters, extensions and so on are also identical.<br />

Xtra.tec ® For precision processing of even smaller<br />

diameters, users are able to call upon the WALTER<br />

<strong>Precision</strong> MINI system (working range 2-45mm). These tools<br />

are fi tted with boring bars in a solid carbide or indexable<br />

insert version. Here too, manual imbalance compensation<br />

permits cutting speeds of up to 2000m/min. Setting<br />

accuracy is also around 0.002mm.<br />

Boring tools / precision tools<br />

The new boring and<br />

precision boring tools<br />

WALTER BoringMEDIUM and<br />

WALTER Boring MAXI /<br />

WALTER <strong>Precision</strong>MEDIUM<br />

and WALTER <strong>Precision</strong> MAXI<br />

have been formed to create<br />

a real tooling family:<br />

Dimensionally coordinated, they<br />

simplify handling and reduce the<br />

input required for programming and collision<br />

control. (picture: WALTER AG)
