The modular grooving system from HORN, for grooving cartridges based on the system interface, 845 consists of:
base plate for turrets with BMT connectionHeight-adjustable grooving tool holderMatching cartridge range with different grooving widths and grooving depthsThe modular system has a selection of base plates for turrets with BMT connections, based on standard machine types.
Matching grooving tool holders with integrated coolant supply allow the cartridge heights to be adjusted and their adaptors to be set in a normal or overhead position, on the left or on the right of the grooving tool holder.
The cartridge system with system interface 845 serves as the holder for the S100 grooving insert system with a range of geometries and substrates. Grooving widths of 2.5, 3 and 4 mm (.098, .118 and .157”) are available with grooving depths of 22 to 105 mm (.866 to 4.134”). The
cartridges are equipped with an integrated coolant supply in versions for clamping finger and coolant support. This system offers a higher level of rigidity compared to cut-off blades and enables planar parting-off surfaces, even with large material diameters.
