Eckmesserkopf T178TM — Corner turning head for APXT 1003 indexable inserts, 90° cutting angle (Teknik Makina)

The Eckmesserkopf T178TM is a purpose-built corner turning head engineered for precise external turning and profiling using APKT/APXT 1003 indexable inserts in standard turning stations.

  • 90° cutting angle for precise corner turning
  • Compatible with APKT 1003 / APXT 1003 inserts
  • 22 mm shank diameter for stable clamping
  • Torx M2.5 fastening; T8 key for quick assembly

Consistent corner accuracy for repeatable parts

The 90° cutting geometry delivers a defined cutting datum that simplifies setup and reduces machining variation. With a clear 90° cutting angle, the tool head produces reproducible corner radii and shoulder faces, which supports tighter tolerances and less post-process rework. The controlled geometry is especially beneficial in batch production where consistent part-to-part accuracy reduces scrap rates and improves downstream assembly quality.

Robust clamping and rapid insert changes to cut downtime

Designed with a 22 mm shank for secure mounting and a Torx fastening system, the head uses a Torx M2.5 screw tightened with a T8 key to hold the insert firmly. This combination provides stable clamping that minimises vibration and tool deflection, improving surface finish and tool life. The compatibility with APKT 1003 / APXT 1003 insert formats means insert replacement is swift and standardised, turning maintenance windows into brief service intervals and supporting a more efficient production rhythm.

Compact dimensions that integrate easily into workshop setups

With a 63 mm diameter, overall length 40 mm and a mass of 0.543 kg, the turning head balances rigidity with a compact footprint for tighter toolpost arrangements. The moderate weight and compact size ease handling during tool changes and reduce cantilever loads on the turret, helping to preserve machine accuracy. Compatible with Korloy insert geometries, the tool head integrates with common indexable insert portfolios, allowing workshop standardisation and simplified stocking of spare parts.
