Wiper Technology in Turning Inserts

Wiper technology refers to special cutting edge geometries on turning inserts designed to improve surface quality during turning, particularly at higher feed rates.

Features:

  • The cutting edge has a flattened or “rounded” wiper surface that smooths the workpiece during cutting.
  • Allows higher cutting speeds and feed rates without deteriorating surface roughness.
  • Improves dimensional accuracy, reduces rework, and increases productivity.

Application example: This technology can be implemented on URMA spindle tools through the use of special insert holders.
