NTK Cutting Tools has introduced its new ‘ECO Series’, expanding its existing Thread Whirling product line. The ECO Series is designed to offer significant cost advantages over conventional thread whirling tools by allowing users to customize the number of teeth and corners on the insert to match specific workpieces, optimizing production efficiency.
The new lineup also features cutters compatible with left-hand threads, a capability not available in the previous series, providing a versatile solution for a wider range of applications.
Key features:
- Selectable Number of Teeth to Meet User Requirements
The conventional cutter had only 9 teeth, but now can choose from 3, 6, or 9 teeth depending on their needs for productivity and surface finish quality. - Selectable Insert Corner Count Based on Production Volume
For small-lot production such as medical screws, can choose 1-corner or 2-corner inserts depending on the lot size, helping to minimize production costs. - Standard Cutters for Left-Hand Threads
Previously, only right-hand thread cutters were available, but now cutters for left-hand threads are included in the standard lineup, making it possible to accommodate all types of thread shapes.
