Biggest small-size technology is in town

If current manufacturing trends are anything to go by, the brand new RHINORUSH series of mini turning inserts from TaeguTec couldn’t have come at a more opportune time.
Improved forging and casting technologies have made it possible to create near-precise components that allow for significantly reduced removed-material quantities during machining. Such material wastage concerns increasingly underscore the futility of using standard size inserts for intricate application and small-dimension machining requirements. For instance, depths of cut in rough turning are predominantly in the range of 2-3 mm, thus making conventional ISO inserts with 12/15 mm cutting-edge lengths redundant. 
In the modern machining environment with high focus on cost reduction, TaeguTec is proud to launch the RHINORUSH range of turning tools to meet the manufacturing industry’s needs of reduced machining costs and high efficiency while looking out for our planet. Imagine the amount of precious carbide – a rare earth metal – that can be saved using optimally sized inserts.
Tiny and Mighty The smaller but optimal sized RHINORUSH inserts are invested with superior r durability and same thickness as ISO inserts. The 9 and 13 mm new line of inserts is just as strong as the 12, 15 and 16 mm inserts but at a fraction of the cost and size. Repeated tests have proven RHINORUSH™ to offer stable tool life even during high speed machining, interrupted cutting and in old machine set-ups.
Clamping System  Besides the new series’ small but durable size, TaeguTec’s RHINORUSH has a unique two directional clamping force that outperforms the conventional ISO directional clamping force tools available in the market.Chipbreakers and GradesRHINORUSH is available in an exhaustive yet constantly evolving range of hi-performance chipbreaker geometries and Gold Rush graders.
The newest chipbreakers include FG, PC, MT, FM and FT. The FG chipbreaker is to be used for finishing applications at a low cutting force on steel and stainless steel materials. For semi-finish to medium applications in steel machining, the PC chipbreaker’s positive geometry has excellent chip control and is the first choice for automotive component machining.
