With close to 50 years of reliability in preventing vibration, the tool-holding system Silent Tools from Sandvik Coromant has aided machining at long overhangs by effectively damping vibrations.

Thanks to the upgrade, Silent Tools turning adaptors will ensure improved consistency and machining repeatability over all available length-to-diameter ratios for a more reliable and higher-performing product.

To further ensure accuracy in setups and optimal tool health, the upgraded turning adaptors are accompanied by a new digital device, Tool Status Checker.

Now, 37 cylindrical items from the turning adaptor range (diameters 32–100 mm, and 1 1/4–4 in.) have been improved and equipped with an overhauled and refined damping mechanism.

Axner says, “It’s now possible to make sure that the adaptor is operational before machining starts. Thanks to Tool Status Checker’s tap-test feature and the included hammer, it’s easy to compare the current setup to a previous one and get a go or no-go result directly in the software. This is a feature that our customers have long requested, and we’)re delighted to deliver it to them.”

(Sandvik Coromant: Sandviken, Sweden; Mebane, NC) — Cutting tools specialist Sandvik Coromant has upgraded the damping mechanism for its Silent Tools turning adaptors for an even more consistent performance and improved surface finish during internal turning operations at long overhangs.

“Tool Status Checker is designed for seamless monitoring of Silent Tools turning adaptors on a Windows tablet or computer,” Axner says. “It’s compatible with all versions of our turning adaptors. Just snap it onto the adaptor’s serration lock interface using the built-in magnet, download the software, and you’re ready to go.”
