Ideal Applications
Cutting inserts wear from the heat generated in the machining process. Conventional inserts generally use a corner or flat edge at the point of contact with the work piece. RTC’s round inserts, mounted on a robust cartridge in the tool body, rotate during the cut, spreading the heat over the 360? cutting edge.
