Modified inserts from ACT and Mircona

Both the Mircona and ACT UK manufactured range of grooving tooling incorporating a strength of design that allows special and semi-special inserts to be produced.

This supplements an extensive range of inserts already available ‘off the shelf ’ for operations such as: circlip grooving, relief grooves and ‘o’ring grooving.

Advanced Carbide Tooling supports a variety of areas such as the oil industry, Formula 1 racing teams, as well as medical and aircraft industries, with specially ground inserts that provide a wide range of grooving solutions.

Semi specials are produced from blank, with a fast turn around normally within 5-7 days and are tailor made for each customers individual requirements.

The ACT ‘Help Centre’ is available for customers wishing to submit a request for special tooling requirements, or simply fax or e-mail your component drawing for a fast response to your problem.
