This question is for all you guys that should have PH D’s in machine application science by understanding the cryptic world of lathe tool selection: I purchased a Romi C420 cnc lathe with an 8 position turret. I now need to select 1-inch tool holders. I’m starting to decode some of the strange numbering assigned to the holders and carbide inserts. As a low budget job shop (more hobby than job at this point) I would like holders that will give me the most bang for the buck, machining a wide array of different metal types. Would a cnmg insert with its negative rank perform well on aluminum and steel? Any suggestions?
Thanks
