Necessary Roughness: FixPerfect™ Turning System

October 31, 2012 / By The Chronicle

When you think of football stars, the first names that come to mind are rarely those of the offensive linemen. You probably think of the quarterback — the most visible member of the team, the one whose actions directly cause the outcome of the game. But what of the linemen, those steadfast players who act as the glue of the offense and rise to meet each challenge? It’s a job that may not get much recognition, but it is the anchor of a team.

The Kennametal FixPerfect Turning System is like the dependable offensive linemen. This system leaves the finesse of finishing to the other guys and takes on roughing operations for medium to high feed rates.

The tangential design yields an extremely strong and reliable system. The more challenging the conditions, the more FixPerfect excels, providing stability where conditions are even more volatile than those caused by a particularly efficient pass rusher. Rigid clamping stabilizes inserts while low cutting forces and excellent chip control result in smooth, vibration-free cutting.

While the blades themselves get all the attention for their cutting abilities, it is the FixPerfect system that holds it all together — just like those offensive linemen.
