A Few Of The Several Advancements In Carbide Inserts By Iscar

Iscar is introducing a new unique milling system utilizing tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has meaningful advantages compared to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has additional cutting edges, positive rake face, decreased cutting forces resulting in higher performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the border of various milling cutter types, providing optimal conditions also for heavy-duty applications with wonderful surface quality, saving additional finishing operations. Cutters 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, improving the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges provide on one side strong and definitive clamping of insert in the tool body, and on the other side, the positive axial rake angle. The use of this positive axial rake design 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 modern machining centers with pallet systems less rigid than on the traditional transfer lines.

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

New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal

Recent developments coming from the headquarters of Iscar, delivering the new Upgrade movement, which guarantees that they are looking toward the future. The new Upgrade campaign, scheduled 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 increase productivity on the shop floor and to boost profits.

Iscar's highlights for this year, with no doubt, are the new coatings, new substrate formations, new cutting edge geometries, new sizes, new tangential clamping mechanisms and new coolant nozzle capabilities. Iscar's future trends incorporate new carbide insert grades for efficient and money-saving machining, more cutting edges per insert and advanced tangential clamping mechanisms which will significantly reduce the cutting stresses. The inception of the AL-TEC, PVD coating chiefly for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating mainly for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for refined strength will change the way industry machines cast iron. Furthermore, Iscar producing mini inserts is another progression within the Upgrade campaign, referring to minimizing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to facilitate fine pitch configuration which will quicken feed rates. In addition, the compact size of the carbide inserts and their tangential orientation in the pockets allow a much larger core diameter, in terms of tool design, when compared to typical radially oriented inserts.

Cutting Edge End Mills Coming From Iscar Will Raise Productivity While Shrinking 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.

Iscar Releases A Completely 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 Made Public Numerous Original 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.

The Latest In Carbide Endmill Architectures In A Lengthy And Effective 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.

Many Progressions Have Multiplied Iscar's Families Of Indexable Endmills For Elevated 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.
