Mapal's EA system makes handling easier for external reaming of small diameters

MAPAL introduces its the (EasyAdjust) system. With the EA system, the back taper of the insert is already integrated in the cassette that serves as insert holder. So there is no need set the back taper of the minor cutting edge. The only thing that needs to be set is the overhang of the insert with regard to the guide pads.
This new system involves the cassette of the EA System being integrated in an additional cassette. This cassette can be removed, and the insert can be set quickly and easily using a micrometer or a surface plate. The appropriate setting dimension for the insert is engraved on the reverse of the tool. This dimension corresponds to the midpoint of the tolerance for the fit to be created.
Once setting is complete, the cassette is mounted again. The changeover accuracy reaches 2 to 3 µm. The System can be used with indexable inserts with four or six cutting edges.
