A Couple Of Advancements In Carbide Inserts Coming From Iscar Over The Last Decade

Iscar is announcing a brand new unique milling system that includes tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has considerable advantages in comparison to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has additional cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in higher performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the border of different milling cutter types, providing unmatchable conditions also for heavy-duty applications with superior surface quality, saving several other finishing operations. Mills are available 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 four for left-hand cutting, enhancing the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges furnish on one side strong and exact clamping of insert in the tool body, and on the other side, the positive axial rake angle. The usability of this positive axial rake composition decreases the cutting forces owed to softer cut and easier penetration into the material, as well as changing force direction which is essential for use on new machining centers with pallet systems less stable than on the classical transfer lines.

In common applications like in the auto industry, the depth-of-cut is less than thirty thousandths of an inch facilitating the use of all eight cutting edges of the Tangmill carbide inserts. Furthermore, in the automotive industry it is common 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 applied.

New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal

Newly born advancements coming from the headquarters of Iscar, delivering the new Upgrade movement, which guarantees that they are looking to the future. The new Upgrade movement, scheduled to be made public at the end of year 2008, will offer new tools for milling, turning, hole making and multifunction applications, complementing the FMR (Fast Metal Removal) tool families with one aim in mind - to boost productivity on the shop floor and to expand profits.

Iscar's feature for this year, with no doubt, are the new coatings, new substrate combinations, new cutting edge geometries, new sizes, new tangential clamping mechanisms and new coolant nozzle functionality. Iscar's future trends combine new carbide insert grades for efficient and money-saving machining, more cutting edges per insert and advanced tangential clamping mechanisms which can significantly diminish the cutting tension. The induction of the AL-TEC, PVD coating essentially for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating mainly for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for better strength will revolutionize the way industry machines cast iron. Furthermore, Iscar offering mini inserts is an alternative direction within the Upgrade movement, referring to decreasing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to facilitate fine pitch configuration which will expedite feed rates. In addition, the small size of the carbide inserts and their tangential orientation in the pockets allow a much bigger core diameter, in terms of tool design, when compared to traditional radially positioned inserts.

The Newest In Carbide Endmill Configuration In A Long And Successful Family 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 Brand New Family Of Slitting Cutters Applying 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.

Iscar Recently Releases Many Revolutionary Lines To Continue 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.

A Variety Of Progressions Have Multiplied Iscar's Line Of Indexable Endmills For Expanded 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.

Completely New End Mills Coming From Iscar Can Increase Productivity While Cutting Down 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.
