   • Insertable Grooving Tools: Use replaceable inserts for different groove sizes and profiles, allowing for quick changes and extended tool life.
   • Solid Grooving Tools: Made from solid materials like high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide.

3. Tool Geometry:

   • The geometry of grooving tools, including rake and clearance angles, is optimized for efficient chip removal and reduced cutting forces.

• Creating Slots: Used in applications where a precise slot is needed, such as for keys or fasteners.
