Grooving
For grooving applications we offer dedicated geometries with the CoroCut system, e. g. GF,
GM, TF and TM. These geometries are designed to give specific benefits in both radial and
face grooving, and other machining methods such as external and internal multiple grooving
and plunge turning.
The different geometries are suitable for high or low feed machining.
For circlip grooving, U-Lock 154.0 is the first choice for productive solutions.
TF – First choice, all-round geometry.
TM – Productive side turning.
GM – Chip control in different material.
GF – Precision grooving.
For more information about cutting speed, see page 74.
