Tool Holders, Attachments & Parts for Davenport � Machines

This 52 page catalog supplement features tooling offered by Somma for use on Davenport Machines, including our patented Quick Change Resharpenable, and Throw Away Style Insert, Tool Holders, HSS & Carbide circular and dovetail blanks, cut-off blades & inserts, Broaching Tools, Turning Tools, Reamer Holders, Tap Holders, Drill Holders, Bushings, Collets, and Thread Roll Attachments. Davenport � parts are not listed in this catalog - we offer Somma quality equivalents.

Somma RQC Insert Form Tool System booklet

Read about the features and benefits of the patented Somma Resharpenable Quick Change Insert System. Basically, this system offers resharpenable style inserts that can be sharpened by grinding material from the top surface and re-used without resetting, reducing machine down time since the inserts can be changed in less than one minute. This system is much less expensive than conventional HSS or carbide brazed form tools and Somma is the only manufacturer that sells both the blanks for you to EDM as well as the finish formed insert - your choice.

Form Tool Design Manual

This 60+ page manual was written by Herman Somma and it answers many questions and offers helpful ideas about form tool designing. Thousands of copies have been requested over the years. You can still request a printed copy or, preferably, you can download it at www.sommatool.com

A new Somma catalog is in the works

We are working on the next printing of the Somma catalog, #2011. It should be available in May 2011. New products will be featured, while discontinued & obsolete items will be removed. We are also reviewing our prices and will have some price adjustments in January. Notices will follow.
