Iscar is introducing a new unique milling system with tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has meaningful advantages in comparison to the current flat, square shapes. The new design has additional cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in increased performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the perimeter of assorted milling cutter types, providing optimal conditions also for heavy-duty applications with excellent surface quality, saving additional finishing operations. End mills are offered for 90 degree shoulder milling and for facing with 45 degree lead angles.
Each carbide insert includes eight cutting edges, four for right-hand and 4 for left-hand cutting, improving the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges provide on one side strong and accurate clamping of insert in the tool body, and on the other side, the positive axial rake angle. The value of this positive axial rake composition diminishes the cutting forces owed to softer cut and easier penetration into the material, as well as changing force direction which is required for use on up-to-date machining centers with pallet systems less rigid than on the traditional transfer lines.
In normal applications like in the automotive industry, the depth-of-cut is less than thirty thousandths of an inch facilitating the use of all 8 cutting edges of the Tangmill carbide inserts. Furthermore, in the automotive industry it is routine to use a pair of cutters, one for right- and one for left-handed operations, which means that all eight cutting edges of the Tangmill inserts can be utilized.
New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal
Recent developments coming from the headquarters of Iscar, delivering the new Upgrade campaign, which guarantees that they are looking toward the future. The new Upgrade movement, planned to be made public at the end of year 2008, will offer brand new tools for milling, turning, hole making and multifunction applications, complementing the FMR (Fast Metal Removal) tool families with one aim in mind - to enhance productivity on the shop floor and to boost profits.
Iscar's highlights for this year, with no doubt, are the new coatings, new substrate compositions, new cutting edge geometries, new sizes, new tangential clamping mechanisms and new coolant nozzle capabilities. Iscar's future trends combine new carbide insert grades for effective and money-saving machining, more cutting edges per insert and exceptional tangential clamping apparatus which will significantly reduce the cutting forces. The inception of the AL-TEC, PVD coating principally for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating largely for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for better strength will change the way industry machines cast iron. Moreover, Iscar producing mini inserts is another trend within the Upgrade campaign, referring to reducing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to simplify fine pitch configuration which will expedite feed rates. In addition, the small size of the carbide inserts and their tangential location in the pockets facilitate a much larger core diameter, in terms of tool design, when compared to regular radially oriented inserts.
Iscar Recently Made Public Several Original Lines To Increase Their Family Of Milling Cutters
Iscar recently released a new family of High Speed Milling adjustable endmills and facemills that will improve milling of aluminum, non-metallics, cast iron and hardened steel. This should prove especially useful in the automotive and aerospace industries.
The Most Recent In Carbide Endmill Architectures In A Lengthy And Prosperous Line From Iscar
Manufacturers and die & mold shops can eliminate chatter problems in many milling operations with Iscar's new Chatterfree endmills. The cutters' variable-pitch flute pattern eliminates harmonic vibration, the main source of chatter. This enables faster cutting and finer finish in rough or finish slotting, shoulder milling and cavity milling.
Iscar Announces A Completely New Line Of Slitting Cutters Utilizing Tang-Grip Technology And The Durability Of Sumo Tec Grades
Iscar now offers a family of high-performance slitting tools that combine the convenience and security of Tang-Grip clamping with the added durability of the new Sumo Tec insert grades. The concept, already proven successful in Tang-Grip parting tools, has now been extended to slitting cutters.
A Variety Of Developments Have Enlarged Iscar's Line Of Indexable Endmills For Increased Productivity
Helido-Upfeed 04 Two years ago Iscar introduced the extremely efficient H600 indexable endmill line, based on conceptually new Helido-Upfeed double sided inserts with 6 cutting edges. The first insert launched was the H600 WXCU 0806..., which was designed for milling cutters in the diameter range of 50 to 125 mm.
Cutting Edge End Mills By Iscar Will Boost Productivity While Lowering Costs
Manufacturers and die & mold shops can banish chatter problems in numerous milling operations with Iscar's new Chatterfree end mills. The cutters' variable-pitch flute pattern eliminates harmonic vibration, the primary source of chatter. This enables faster cutting and finer finish in rough or finish slotting, shoulder milling and cavity milling.
Completely New Tools And Carbide Insert Arrangements From Iscar To Better Improve The Machining Procedure
Iscar is introducing Penta 34 carbide inserts with a new PB chipformer. The PB chipformer features a single cavity with a positive rake, neutral shoulder angle, and a honed edge. It is actually a C-type chipformer with a different frontal edge.
