A special feature of carousel lathes is the vertical arrangement of the part on a rotating faceplate, which makes them indispensable when working with workpieces of large diameter and considerable weight, but relatively small height. This approach requires not only special skills from a carousel turner, but also a specially adapted tool.
"The cutters for the carousel machine work under conditions of high loads, large chip cross—section and often at increased cutting speeds," the plant's specialists note. — Therefore, increased requirements are placed on their strength, thermal conductivity and durability. Our new tool is designed with these specific conditions in mind."
Key advantages of the new cutters:
- Durable holders with increased cross-section (from 25x25 mm to 80x60 mm), which guarantees reliability when removing large allowances in one pass.
- Enlarged carbide plates, providing high durability and performance.
- Optimized geometry that facilitates easy chip separation and the formation of transportable chips.

The development was carried out with the direct participation of experienced carousel turners, which made it possible to create a tool that best meets the real needs of production. New cutters are becoming the key to high productivity and efficient processing of complex and massive parts.
"Our production and ninety years of experience allow us to provide turners all over Russia with a reliable tool to work with maximum efficiency," the Kirzhachsky Tool Factory emphasizes.
The new line of cutters is already available for order and is intended for enterprises of heavy machinery, power engineering and other industries where turning-carousel type equipment is used.
