Precision Without Compromise: Sandvik Coromant’s Silent Tools Turning Adapters Redefine Vibration Control!
By Ashutosh Arora
Sandvik Coromant continues to push the boundaries of machining performance with the latest expansion of its Silent Tools turning adapter range—specifically designed to tackle one of the most persistent challenges in metal cutting: vibration at long overhangs. These new-generation adapters offer enhanced stability, precision, and versatility, serving critical sectors such as aerospace, oil and gas, power generation, and general engineering.
The updated lineup now includes 75 new Coromant Capto adapters and six HSK-T adapters, increasing the total range to 187 tools. These additions, ranging in diameters from 32 mm to 100 mm (1.260″ to 3.937″), are ideal for internal turning, parting and grooving, and threading operations. Available in cylindrical, Coromant Capto, and HSK-T configurations, the adapters are tailored to meet the performance needs of today’s advanced manufacturing setups. Furthermore, customers can now benefit from Sandvik Coromant’s Tailor Made program, allowing for customized solutions to fit unique application requirements.
What truly sets the Silent Tools turning adapters apart is their integrated damping technology, which efficiently counteracts vibration forces even during operations with long tool overhangs. This ensures higher metal removal rates, better surface finishes, and significantly improved process security. By mitigating vibration-induced interruptions, these tools help manufacturers reduce downtime, scrap rates, and overall cost per component—making them an asset in high-precision environments.
A standout feature in this second-generation release is the automated calibration of the damper body. This advancement ensures each adapter is precisely assembled and tuned to the optimal frequency range for its intended use. The result is improved consistency, better repeatability, and enhanced reliability across a variety of setups and machining conditions.
In a time where productivity, accuracy, and tool longevity are more critical than ever, Sandvik Coromant’s Silent Tools turning adapters present a well-engineered solution to internal turning challenges—delivering silent strength where it matters most.
