Kennametal 6865884 Modular Cut-off Cutting Unit Head

Product Description

The KENNAMETAL 6865884 is a modular cut-off cutting unit head engineered for precision parting and grooving operations on CNC lathes and turning centers. Part of the Beyond Evolution series, this head is designed for maximum width of cut of 3.00 millimeters, making it well suited for tight-tolerance parting work in high-production environments. The modular design allows the cutting head to be indexed or replaced independently of the toolholder body, reducing downtime and tooling cost per part. Machinists and tooling specialists working in metalcutting production shops are the primary installers of this component.

This cutting unit head is intended for use in modular cut-off and grooving tooling systems on CNC turning equipment. The Beyond Evolution series targets demanding parting applications in materials ranging from steel and stainless to cast iron and high-temperature alloys. The 3.00mm cut width suits applications requiring narrow parting lines, minimal material loss, and consistent chip control in medium to high-volume production turning operations.

Key Features

• Maximum width of cut: 3.00 millimeters for narrow-kerf parting and grooving
• Part of the Beyond Evolution modular tooling series for flexible head changeout
• Modular construction supports quick head replacement without removing the full toolholder
• Designed for high-production CNC turning center environments
• Package quantity of 1 individual cutting unit head per unit

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style modular cut-off cutting unit head for use within compatible Beyond Evolution series modular grooving and parting toolholder systems. Specific system compatibility should be verified against KENNAMETAL Beyond Evolution toolholder documentation prior to ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist or tooling technician with the machine spindle fully stopped and the CNC control placed in an estop or locked-out state per facility lockout/tagout procedures. Ensure the mating toolholder body is clean and free of chips or debris before seating the cutting head. Follow the toolholder manufacturer torque and clamping specifications for the specific body this head is paired with. Do not exceed the rated maximum width of cut or depth-of-cut limits for the toolholder system.
