The direction of the toolpaths provides the ability to machine right up against a 90-degree shoulder on parts. This allows the machine to achieve a higher feed rate – typically 2 to 3 times faster than conventional feed rates – while still maintaining the same close tolerances and quality finishing. The shape of the CoroTurn® Prime tool inserts, combined with toolpaths that turn in the opposite direction than a conventional turning process, makes it possible to achieve a much smaller entry angle and better chip control. PrimeTurning™ offers the flexibility for turning operations in all directions. HCL CAMWorks 2021Plus is one of the first integrated CAM systems to support Sandvik Coromant’s PrimeTurning™, which uses CoroTurn® Prime Type-A and Type-B tools in conjunction with unique toolpaths to achieve increased feeds and speeds, shorter cycle times and longer tool life. HCL Technologies (HCL), a leading global technology company, today announced the release of HCL CAMWorks 2021Plus, with support for Sandvik Coromant PrimeTurning™.
