CoroCut® QD
The most reliable system for parting off
High precision coolant
Over- and under coolant system cools the cutting zone for better chip control, extended tool life and higher cutting data. Easy coolant connection with plug and play adaptors.
Grades and geometries for parting off
Geometries designed for good chip formation, high stability and coolant access in combination with grades that provide excellent edge-line security in all materials makes for inserts that excel in every parting off operation.
Y-axis parting
CoroCut® QD, for Y-axis parting, is designed with the insert pocket rotated 90 degrees, providing more than six times higher blade stiffness in turning centres, multi-task machines and sliding head machines with Y-axis.

Y-axis parting: turning re-invented
Get to know Y-axis parting – a completely new way of parting off. While conventional parting off uses feed motion along the X-axis with the cutting force directed through the weakest section of the blade, CoroCut® QD for Y-axis parting is designed with the top face of the insert perpendicular to the blade. This gives a more beneficial direction of the cutting force, resulting in considerably higher stability and reduced vibration.
CoroCut® QD for Y-axis parting is first choice for parting off in turning centres, multi-task machines and sliding head machines with Y-axis. It can machine large diameters, up to 180 mm (7 inch), and is particularly suitable for long overhangs to reach between main- and sub-chuck.
Comparison of conventional CoroCut® QD blade and blade for Y-axis parting
Highlights
Demo: Three times higher feed rate with Y-axis parting

Behind the scenes of Y-axis parting
To truly advance parting off operations, it is not enough to develop a new tool - you need to develop the method. Meet Staffan and Johan, the brains behind the new ingenious way of parting along the Y-axis, which challenges conventional machining.
New steel turning grade
CoroCut® QD with grade GC4425 is specifically optimized to combine wear resistance and reliability for parting off. GC4425 is first choice for parting off steel when conditions and set-up are stable.
