Insert turning tool G5011 series

for aeronautics

Overview
The unique stability of the Groov·tec® double-serration profile increases achievable cutting parameters, process reliability and part quality.

Process safety and performance
Walter Groov·tec® GD is a tool system designed to enhance process security for parting and grooving operations. Its removable insert clamp with double serration, engaging from top and bottom, prevents lateral ejection of the cutting insert. This ensures improved process reliability and can extend tool life by up to 150% compared to prismatic clamping systems.

New "Double Serration" technology
The new insert design with a double-serration profile—insert GD26 and the tool body pocket—forms a precise interlock. The form-fit connection better absorbs lateral forces during turning and parting. Conventional systems (e.g. dual-prism clamps) provide significantly lower stability in comparison.

Tool features
From the highly stable double-serration to Tiger·tec® Gold coated inserts with high wear resistance, integrated Walter precision coolant, and innovative chipbreaker geometries: Groov·tec® brings together features that set industrial benchmarks.
