Back in the seventies, ISCAR introduced SELF-GRIP, the brand name of the original blockbuster parting tool design concept. According to the design concept of the SELF-GRIP tool (Fig. 1), a pressed carbide insert was clamped into a tool blade using the blade’s elastic forces without the need for mechanical securing elements. At that time, other manufacturers also attempted to clamp inserts into a parting tool using the same principle. However, it was ISCAR that invented a reliable, truly workable concept that set the benchmark for parting applications. The SELF-GRIP tool proved to be a game changer in parting. Shortly after…

In those times, as CNC machines…
