SECO MDT-CLAMPING

The system can be used for

Turning
Profiling
Grooving
Parting-off

Suitable applications include turning of parts with many different diameters, complicated
profiles and grooves. For complex parts of this type, several standard and special tools
can be replaced by one Seco MDT tool. Savings can be achieved through fewer tool
changes and reduced stock.
Seco MDT has a unique insert clamping method - Secoloc; a combination of top clamp
and serrated contact surfaces between the insert and toolholder offers superb stability.
The relatively long length of the inserts also increases the stability.

The Benefits

Improved reliability
Increased cutting data
Good surface finish
Less risk of vibrations
Good repeatability (+/- 0, 03)


M5 Chip breaker

This robust insert with its highly protected chip groove tackles the most demanding
operations, heavy interruptions and rough skin successfully. An open chip groove with
well-adapted cutting angles ensures high feed rates and large cuts for efficient
machining and best economy.
Ductile materials can easily be handled with full control by the fine-tuned chip groove
design. For obtaining optimal tool life in a variety of materials the balanced rake face
minimizes the heat transferred to the insert.


M5 is the unsurpassable geometry for a great variety of workpiece materials such as
steel, stainless steel, cast iron and troublesome super alloys.
