On the new GARANT VG Basic pre-setting device, both the X and Z axes can be moved by up to 400 millimeters using a pneumatic quick adjustment device. This requires a compressed air supply of at least 73 psi. When an additional fine adjustment is made, the two axes can be positioned accurately enough that the exact tool dimensions can be determined…
Internal tests show the new GARANT Master Steel DEEP achieved impressive results in comparison to its predecessor and products from competitors: up to 30 percent higher metal removal rate, up to 70 percent higher process reliability and three times longer tool life.
The GARANT Master Tap INOX is suitable for producing through and blind hole threads with a tolerance of 6GX. As with all tools from the GARANT Master Tap product range, it provides top process reliability, performance capability, and a long working life because a special cutting edge geometry provides evenly turned chips that are ejected in a…
Last year the Hoffmann Group presented the Garant Xtric centering vice with clamping jaw quick-change system in line with the “Click&Clamp” principle. From April 2020, the small powerhouse, which acts directly on the component with up to 25 kN clamping force and hardly creates any jaw and component lift-off, will also be available with a…
Hoffmann Group USA has expanded its tool family for Parabolic Performance Cutting (PPC) to include a new PPC indexable insert and Garant PPC solid-carbide barrel milling cutters for high-alloy and hardened steels. The PPC process represents a further development of ball-nosed slot drill cutting and is also known as barrel milling.
Hoffmann Group USA announces the new centering vise called the GARANT Xtric. The vice is equipped with a new chuck jaw quick-change system, which enables easy, tool-free changeover. A click mechanism gives the vise an interchange accuracy in the micrometer range. Top jaws, which can be rotated by 180 degrees, allow for a large clamping range and…
Hoffmann Group USA announced that its Web-based eForm configurator has been optimized for free-form surfaces. Using eForm, Hoffmann Group USA customers can design their own customized rigid foam inlays, whereby individually placed tools are not only positioned next to each other, but also above one another.
