The SWISSCUT line is designed for Swiss-type lathes controlled by CNC and for Swiss-
type automatics (known also as screw-type machines). The unique SWISSCUT line
is characterized by ergonomic insert clamping and simple handling. This system is an THREAD TURNING
important element for the high precision Swiss-type machine industry. The insert included
in this line has two cutting edges and all ground. The SWISSCUT line includes two types of

line offers a solution for partial profiles and full profiles and is suitable for the production of
external threading.
