Insert tooling is fast
becoming one of the best products a
woodworker can buy for today's materials and
high demand applications. Between its
extended run times and the ability to keep
running even through tool changes it is the
premium tooling system. With available
options for multi-profile, dedicated
profile, and straight profile you can use
insert tooling for just about any
application.
Extended tool life in manmade
materials is one of the benefits that brings
many woodworkers to insert tooling. The tool
life increase is due to the higher grade
carbides that insert tools are made from.
These grades are made with finer grain
structured carbides that are harder than the
standard grades used for the typical brazed
cutting tools. Some of the best applications
for these harder carbides include man-made
materials, exotic hardwoods, and long run
applications.
The ability of the user to
change inserts in their tooling is the other
great advantage. This saves the typical user
from having to have multiple sets of the
same tooling just to make it between
sharpening's. The user simply replaces a
dull set of carbide knives with a new set
and continues running, many times with out
changing the setup. The dull inserts can be
sharpened for some profiles and on others
they are simply thrown out or recycled.
The greatest advantage of
insert tooling is its ability to maintain
the exact same profile throughout its
entire life. Since the inserts are CNC
ground to the same program and the majority
of the time they are not sharpened the
profiles are never changed. A typical brazed
cutter is sharpened 6 to 7 times and the
profile changes with each sharpening due to
the cutting clearances.
