Tight grip for milling inserts
Advanced Carbide Tooling is offering users of Metal Masters face milling cutters free-of-charge a new type of insert clamping screw and T-bar driver for securing the patented Frustum inserts.
ACT has been the UK distributor for Mircona face-grooving and parting-off tools since its formation in 1984 and also distributes a number of other specialist tooling systems in the UK.
More recently it developed its own range of parting-off and grooving tools with cutting widths from 0.5mm to 2.2mm, which is being sold in the UK and through distributors on the Continent.
Sister company Advanced Microlubrication manufactures and installs vegetable-based precision lubrication systems as an alternative to flood coolant.
"ACT is well established as one of the UK's leading specialist tooling suppliers, particularly in face-grooving.
The new structure will enable the directors to focus on specific areas of responsibility and build on our expertise and reputation," said Keith London.
