At the EMO exhibition in 2017, Guhring gave a world premiere to a multitude of new cutting tool lines, and these innovations will receive their UK exhibition premiere at MACH (hall 18, stand 540).

The company will present new turning systems that include the 104 and 106 series for grooving, boring, broaching and threading, and the 305 system, a three-fold interchangeable indexable insert for external and internal machining. From a milling perspective, Guhring will be keen to demonstrate its latest Ratio line of roughing end mills. Ratio offers flat-crested geometry and an optimised roughing profile that is said to demonstrate 60% longer service life.
