Indexable insert for milling (APKT/APMT)Used in indexable-insert milling cutters for face and shoulder milling of steel and aluminium, where blunt inserts are quickly indexed or replaced without removing the cutter.
Solid carbide end mill (VHM)Used for shoulder, slot and profile milling of steel, stainless steel and aluminium on milling and machining centres, where dimensional and surface requirements are high.
Face mill with indexable insertsUsed to face large surfaces and remove stock allowance on workpieces on milling machines and machining centres; the inserts are replaced individually when worn.
Carbide twist drill (VHM)Used to drill holes in steel, stainless steel and cast iron on CNC machines, often as pre-drilling before threading or reaming.
NC spot drill / centre drillUsed to spot and centre hole positions before drilling on CNC milling machines, and to make 90° chamfers on hole edges.
Machine tapUsed for tapping holes on drilling and milling machines, often with a synchronised tapping cycle; the type is chosen for blind or through holes.
Threading insert (indexable insert for thread turning)Used for single-point thread turning on a CNC lathe (G76 cycle), where the profile matches the thread's pitch and form (e.g. metric 60°).
Clamping
4
ER colletUsed to clamp cutters and drills in ER tool holders on milling and machining centres; each collet covers a small diameter range.
Precision machine viceUsed to clamp prismatic workpieces on milling machines and machining centres; the fixed jaw forms the reference for dimensioning.
Three-jaw self-centring lathe chuckUsed to clamp round and hexagonal workpieces on a lathe; jaws can be reversed or replaced for internal and external clamping.
Live centre (rotating tailstock centre)Used to support the free end of long workpieces between centres on a lathe, so the workpiece does not bend under the cut.

Tool holder (VDI / BT)Used to mount turning holders, drills and cutters in the machine, so tools can be changed and reset quickly without losing the zero point.
Measuring tool
7
Digital calliper 150 mm~ ~149 krIndicative · thansen.dk · 2026-07
Outside micrometer 0–25 mmUsed for accurate checking of diameters and thicknesses where a calliper is not precise enough, e.g. for fit dimensions on turned shafts.
Dial gauge with magnetic standUsed to align workpieces, check runout and flatness and set the zero point relative to a reference surface on the machine.
Thread limit plug gauge (go/no-go)Used for quick function checks of tapped holes, so the thread tolerance is approved without measuring every single dimension.
Edge finderUsed to find the workpiece edge and set the zero point (X/Y) on milling machines before a program is run.
Radius and thread gaugeUsed for quick checks of corner radii and to determine the pitch of an unknown thread, e.g. when measuring an existing part.
Refractometer for concentration controlUsed to check and adjust the concentration in the coolant system daily, keeping lubrication, corrosion protection and skin safety right.

Cutting fluid concentrate (metalworking)Used in the coolant system of lathes and milling machines; typically mixed to 5–8 % and checked regularly with a refractometer according to the data sheet.
Deburring toolUsed to remove sharp burrs on machined edges and hole edges after milling and drilling, both outside and inside.
Safety equipment
1
Chip hookUsed to safely remove chip nests on lathes and milling machines; may only be used when the machine is at a standstill.
