New Generation of Steel Turning Tools from GESAC Cutting Tools

Empower Efficient Steel Machining with “Low Cutting Forces”
In steel turning operations, cutting force is one of the key factors affecting tool life, workpiece accuracy, and surface quality. Especially when machining deformation-prone components like thin-walled parts and slender shafts, how to effectively reduce cutting force becomes a crucial challenge for enhancing machining stability and efficiency.

The geometry design for Gesac's new generation steel turning tools is the result of refined iterative development, leveraging advanced cutting simulation technology and a professional cutting force testing platform. Simulation technology accurately replicates the cutting process, modeling chip formation, stress distribution, and the variation of cutting forces, providing a scientific basis for optimizing the chip breaker geometry. This is followed by multiple rounds of validation using actual measured cutting force data, ensuring the design is highly synchronized with real-world machining conditions.

📢Better performance for Copy turning with Walter Tools

With increasing requirements on precision, process reliability and cost-effectiveness, the performance of modern copy turning and contour turning systems is becoming increasingly important. This is where the Walter Turn WL copy turning system comes in.

Thanks to the Walter Lock positive engagement (WL form fit), it offers:
✔ Exceptional stability
✔ Repeat accuracy
✔ Enables precise and trouble-free machining of even complex contours.

With the Walter Lock positive engagement between the toolholder and insert, as well as three contact surfaces, the Walter Turn WL copy turning system prevents the indexable insert from moving in the toolholder and ensures maximum stability and accuracy. Three-edged indexable inserts guarantee greater cost-effectiveness by extending the tool life per insert and reducing tool costs.

Your benefits:
⚡ High dimensional accuracy thanks to positive engagement of the WL connection
⚡ Long tool life for copy turning – up to 50° profiling
⚡ High flexibility: 4 types of indexable insert for the same tool
⚡ 50% higher changeover accuracy compared to ISO indexable inserts
