Cutting Tools Pages 59 to 76 Ball Nose Contour Roughers Ingersoll Cutting Tools offers the Pro-Trio line of ball nose contour roughers. This very unique design employs a three-effective flute ball nose configuration for increased 3X productivity and incorporates double-sided insert technology for more indexes. The Pro-Trio excels at copy, channel and deep pocket machining, the company states. The innovative and robust dovetail clamping system for the ball nose inserts ensures extra insert stability for rugged performance. Side cutting insert stations add increased performance and greater application flexibility when side milling. Customers using this new ball nose technology will benefit from faster feed rates, higher material removal rates, increased reliability and greater economy. Also new is the T-Micro system, specifically designed for the machining of very small internal diameters. The T-Micro system is a two-piece design, consisting of a sleeve and replaceable carbide inserts. Applications include grooving, profiling, chamfering, face grooving/deep face grooving, threading, and back turning starting at .024" (.6mm). The inserts feature coolant thru capabilities and are available in grade TT9030, a submicron substrate with PVD-TiAlN coating, making them an ideal solution for all miniature internal applications. Ingersoll's Form-Master offers the latest roughing technology for die/mold applications. Economical, double-sided inserts are available in two distinct styles: round and serrated. Both offer free-cutting geometry and an anti- rotation clamping system, but the serrated style expands the tools' application range to include extended-reach operations and high temperature alloys. The serrations also provide increased stability on the cut and enhanced chip management.
