Grooving, slotting, parting off – errors while performing any of these operations may result in the entire machining process wasted and an unusable workpiece. Powerful side and face milling cutters from Ceratizit's new MaxiMill – Slot-SX series with through coolant can now provide the highest levels of process security and optimum performance – even with diameters as large as 250 mm. The milling tools with indexable inserts from the Ceratizit MaxiMill series have a secure place in the machining market thanks to their high-quality standards and broad applications. "What we've been lacking is a program for slot milling that would enable our customers to machine slots and grooves and carry out parting operations in a process-secure manner. This led to the development of our MaxiMill – Slot-SX, which is modeled on the existing grooving inserts from the SX system and extends our portfolio with a range of robust solutions," explained Robert Frei, Product Manager at Ceratizit .
