Comprehensive machining solutions on display at EMO Hannover

Visitors to EMO Hannover 2019 will discover there is a lot going on within the Ceratizit Group, the European cutting tool manufacturer.

The recently created Team Cutting Tools will offer even more comprehensive and complete machining solutions – that reason alone fully justifies a visit to stand B70 in Hall 5, but in addition there will be numerous impressive innovations and live product launches.

With the flagship brands of cutting solutions by Ceratizit, Komet, WNT and Klenk making up Team Cutting Tools, the machining sector has a genuine complete provider in the shape of the Ceratizit Group.

Collectively, the brands cover a multitude of products – indexable insert tools, hole production, solid carbide and HSS rotating tools, tool/workholding, and aerospace applications, respectively. These machining solutions, over 100,000 items, can be found in the new catalogue, which was published in July. Users can also visit the new online shop at cuttingtools.ceratizit.com to view the full range and access the complete programme.

Besides having one of the most comprehensive standard portfolios, Team Cutting Tools also offers sector-specific solutions. Visitors to EMO can experience its sector expertise first-hand. Interactive presentation spaces will provide a platform for demonstrating core skills in the automotive, aerospace, energy technology and heavy machining sectors.

One of the highlights making its world première at the fair: additive manufacturing tools for the machining of E-motors.

An exhibition wouldn’t be an exhibition new innovations. Team Cutting Tools claims it is set to revolutionise turning with its High Dynamic Turning and FreeTurn tools from Ceratizit.

The new technology offers huge potential for machining companies. With the help of the milling spindle on a multi-tasking turn/mill centre, the 360° rotation clearance angle allows the tool to be positioned at any angle relative to the workpiece.

Among the many advantages are higher feedrates and a longer service life, together with shorter tool changing times and fewer tools. All of which sounds fine in theory, but does it actually work in practice? Team Cutting Tools will provide the answer with a live demonstration on a turn-mill centre on the Ceratizit stand. EMO will also see the unveiling of the first standard range of FreeTurn tools.

Ceratizit will also address the highly topical subject of digital machining. A central aspect of this is the ToolScope monitoring and assistance system which permanently stores the signals that are generated by the machine during the manufacturing process. This information is visualised and used to monitor and supervise the machine controller. Special, patented statistical control processes are then employed to depict the condition of the tool and the machine.

This not only enables targeted wear and fracture monitoring to be carried out, it also greatly reduces manufacturing errors. Visitors to the innovation centre on the stand will also discover the potential offered by the sensory ‘spike’ toolholder from pro-micron and how One Identity can be used to clearly identify tools.

In addition to tool systems, digitisation solutions and innovations, Ceratizit will also be presenting its service offering, which plays a key role within the company. From project design for customers through to technical training and the 24/7 supply of tools, Ceratizit offers numerous additional services that companies in the metalworking and processing industries can find out about on the stand.

zit, the solid carbide specialists, on your fair itinerary so you don’t miss these and many other highlights. The entire Team Cutting Tools will be delighted to welcome you to Hall 5, Stand B70.
