Modern turning works in any direction
PrimeTurning™ and Y-axis parting are new turning methods revolutionizing the industry. By making use of the opportunities provided by modern CNC machines and challenging conventional machining directions, gains in productivity and tool life can reach levels never seen before.
Find out where these innovations will lead you.
CoroTurn® Prime and PrimeTurning™
Our new turning concept, the PrimeTurning™ method and CoroTurn® Prime tool, allows you to do turning in all directions and gives you huge productivity gains as a result. Delivering a 50% increase or higher in productivity compared to conventional turning solutions, it is unlike any other turning concept available today. This innovation presents countless possibilities to perform an existing turning operation much more efficiently and productively. This is not just a new tool—it is a totally new way of doing turning.
CoroCut® QD for Y-axis parting
CoroCut® QD for Y-axis parting includes all the great features of CoroCut® QD, but with one important change: the insert pocket is rotated 90 degrees. We call it Y-axis parting, and this completely new way of parting off gives a more beneficial direction to the cutting force, resulting in much higher stability. It eliminates vibration and reduces noise levels to a minimum.
