I’m experiencing problems fitting insert to tool holder. New to inserts and holders.
Kennametal “MCLNR-083A NI6” tool holder. ½ shank. Lock pin.
Got inserts “CNMG322"
My problem is the insert does not seem to fit. Viewed from the top it appears the hole in the insert and the lock pin do not align. The insert is not seating enough to match the lock pin. The holder was checked for burrs and obstruction. Looks good to my untrained eye.
The lock pin was removed from the holder. It easily fit the insert. The insert fits well with the lock pin removed.
The inserts were sent in an unmarked box. The insert measures 0.3755” with a 0.1445” center hole. Has “KC5010” printed on the side. So it appears to be a “CNMG322” insert.
Will call Kennametal next week but would appreciate any suggestions.
