Developed jointly with Kennametal, the Spinning Tool takes advantage of live tooling
on a multitasking machine tool
for turning operations.
The Spinning Tool is mounted in a live-tooling pocket on the tool turret or in the milling spindle of a rotary head and rotates as it engages the OD of a workpiece rotating in a chuck or between centers. The Spinning Tool was designed so cutting forces push primarily against the spindle or the tool turret, this makes the cut more stable and resistant to chatter.
