System 208: Precision and process reliability for sliding head turning technology
With the new System 208, Gühring is launching a grooving system that has been specially developed for sliding headstock lathes.
Its special geometry, high interchangeability and proven service life advantages specifically meet the requirements for machining complex micro-turned parts.
Compact design for confined spaces
Sliding headstock lathes often operate in extremely confined spaces. This is exactly where System 208 comes in. The rhombic, ground indexable insert with two cutting edges is designed so that it can be used precisely even in small machines with bar feeders. With a maximum groovin depth of 8 mm, the system covers common machining operations from parting off to grooving and longitudinal turning.
