Insert geometry
        Correct insert geometry is a very important factor
        when using anti-vibration boring bars. The most
        recommended insert geometry for successful
        anti-vibration use, is a positive geometry insert
        with a positive rake angle, as this shape exerts a
        lower tangential cutting force when machining.

        Choosing the appropriate nose radius of the insert
        is also a vitally important consideration. A lower
        nose radius is recommended as this configuration
        significantly reduces the cutting forces, due to the
        lower contact between the insert and workpiece,
        which helps to limit and reduce vibration.


        A greater nose radius creates much larger radial
        and tangential cutting forces that can produce
        unwelcome vibrations.
