Machine breakdowns need a quick response - ACT's range of Mircona parting off inserts and holders are the tools for the job.

Stanley A. Ratcliffe & Co. is a company that prides itself on the quality and service it offers its customers when they have machine breakdowns.

They have been servicing their customers for 30 years from their premises in Ashby-De-La-Zouch.

“When we get the call from our customers we have to be able to respond immediately by making a part usually from bar material, this means it inevitably has to be Parted Off”, explained Mr. Ratcliffe.

“In the early days we tried lots of different parting systems but none were as strong and as ridgid as the Mircona Tooling.

“We need to have a tool that stands up to every type of material, gives us the surface finish and flatness on the part we require so we don’t have to face it on a second operation.

"The combination of a Mircona Tool holder R151RF2525x35x3 with MP3 TNF150 insert fulfils this requirement.”
