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)
