Copy Turning - Efficient Plastic Machining
As the only supplier on the market, we offer a tool program specifically tailored for plastic copy turning. Developed for plastic chip removal, indexable turning inserts, together with the optimally matched ISO turning insert and PCD exchangeable cutting inserts, form a comprehensive machining system for copy turning of plastics. This unique machining system provides numerous advantages over conventional tools in terms of machining and the production of plastic turn parts.
System KP-VCGT
Dieterle Special Tools has developed special geometries for precise plastic processing in the standard program. Perfect results through efficient processes.
ISO-Indexable inserts
Our selection of ISO turning inserts tailored for plastic processing for precise copy turning. Efficient solutions through outstanding sharpness.
PCD - ISO Indexable Inserts
Depending on the application areas, plastics are reinforced with glass or carbon fibers (GFR/ CFR) to improve mechanical properties. For the machining of these reinforced plastics, we recommend our indexable inserts with PCD tooling.
SALP for SSXA
Dieterle SALP inserts connect two worlds by copy turning and chipless-cutting. On our SSXA swiss-type system, the SALP cutting plate can both cutting off and face copy turning, of course with a guided chip.

SDAC-KP
Highly positive indexable inserts for copy turning - ideal for spherical turning - with 7.5 ° basic shape
PK-VCGT-16 for SDAC-KP-1635 PK-VCGT-22 for SDAC-KP-2235
SDAC-1135
Highly positive indexable inserts for copy turning - ideal for spherical turning - with 35 ° basic shape
KP-VCGT für SDAC-KP-90
The KP-VCGT indexable inserts have been specially developed for grooving, long turning and copy turning of plastics. Their highly positive and extensively ground geometry with polished rake angle guarantees a very aggressive, yet soft cut. Thanks to their slim geometry, these interchangeable inserts are ideally suited to realizing the finest contours even behind the shoulder.
The KP-VCGT indexable inserts are available in sizes VCGT-0702 .. and VCGT-1303 .. with R0.2 and R0.4. A cutting depth of up to 5.5 mm can be achieved. The right tool holder SDAC-KP-90.. guarantees turning at an angle of 90° to the axis of rotation. The tool holder SDAC-KP-90 is available in the usual shank sizes.
KP-VCGT-07 for SDAC-KP-90 KP-VCGT-13 for SDAC-KP-90
The following types of indexable inserts are available for machining plastics with the KP-VCGT system:
KP-VCGT-07 + KP-VCGT-13
KP-VCGT-07 l tmax 2,8mm SDAC-KP-90-07 tool holder
KP-VCGT-13 l tmax 5,5mm SDAC-KP-90-13 tool holder
