Designed with increased productivity, tool life and part quality in mind, the new Seco 150.10-JETI system streamlines the heat removal process in high-speed parting-off applications.

 The parting-off system comprises High Speed Steel blades, Jetstream Tooling^® technology and tool blocks with coolant inlets. Together, these elements give high-pressure coolant a straight path to the cutting edge and provide an optimised means for effectively penetrating the friction zone between the cutting edge and workpiece. Thereby, manufacturers benefit from fast heat removal, proper chip evacuation and superior part surface finishes.

Plus, the 150.10-JETI system is able to move freely in tight workspaces and operate closer to the spindle thanks to its compact assembly free of external piping and connections. The elimination of these external components also saves users on spare part costs and reduces their tooling inventory.

Available in 15 mm 20 mm and 25 mm sizes, High Speed Steel blades ensure high insert stability. The blades accommodate insert widths from 2 mm to 6 mm and are compatible with a variety of tool blocks on the market. The square-shank blocks available through Seco come in metric and imperial sizes, with heights and widths that range from 10×10 to 32×32.

Seco recently improved the productivity and process safety of its line of Jetstream Tooling products through multiple enhancements, including a new lever clamping design and optional roughing inducer. These extras further increase the performance levels of Jetstream Tooling, enabling manufacturers to attain higher productivity and part quality by removing heat from turning applications.

A lever clamping design replaces the original pin-clamping systems for negative inserts to establish several new Jetstream Tooling advantages, including better indexing accuracy and prevention of insert movement under high loads in roughing applications.

On shanked toolholders equipped with Jetstream Tooling Duo, an additional coolant outlet underneath the holder directs a jet to the secondary heat zone just below the cutting edge. This boosts cooling efficiency and part quality. Additionally, an optional roughing inducer can be ordered separately to adapt the coolant jets for larger depths of cut and higher feed rates. On all inducers, the coolant outlet design has been improved to obtain further precision and efficiency of the jet.
