Iscar is starting a new unique milling system that includes tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has significant advantages in comparison to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has numerous cutting edges, positive rake face, lowered cutting forces resulting in elevated performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the boundary of a variety of milling cutter types, providing prime conditions also for heavy-duty applications with superior surface quality, saving additional finishing operations. Mills are offered for 90 degree shoulder milling and for facing with 45 degree lead angles.
Each carbide insert possesses 8 cutting edges, 4 for right-hand and four for left-hand cutting, upgrading the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges provide on one side strong and exact clamping of insert in the tool body, and on the other side, the positive axial rake angle. The use of this positive axial rake composition diminishes the cutting forces owing to softer cut and easier penetration into the metal, as well as changing force direction which is mandatory for use on new machining centers with pallet systems less solid than on the traditional transfer lines.
In common applications like in the automotive 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 auto industry it is popular to use a pair of cutters, one for right- and one for left-handed operations, which means that all 8 cutting edges of the Tangmill inserts can be employed.
New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal
Contemporary developments coming from the headquarters of Iscar, delivering the new Upgrade movement, which guarantees that they are looking toward the future. The new Upgrade movement, planned to be distributed at the end of year 2008, will offer cutting edge tools for milling, turning, hole making and multifunction operations, complementing the FMR (Fast Metal Removal) tool families with one aim in mind - to boost productivity on the shop floor and to raise 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 features. Iscar's future trends combine new carbide insert grades for effective and time-saving machining, more cutting edges for each insert and upper-level tangential clamping apparatus which can significantly decrease the cutting tension. The introduction of the AL-TEC, PVD coating principally for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating essentially for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for upgraded strength will transform the way manufacturers machines cast iron. Moreover, Iscar manufacturing mini inserts is a different direction within the Upgrade campaign, referring to decreasing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to aid fine pitch configuration which will quicken feed rates. In addition, the nominal size of the carbide inserts and their tangential position in the pockets facilitate a much greater core diameter, in terms of tool design, when compared to traditional radially oriented inserts.
The Most Recent In Carbide Endmill Configuration In A Extended And Prospering 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 Releases A Revolutionary Family Of Slitting Cutters Applying Tang-Grip Technology And The Sturdiness 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.
Some Advancements Have Enlarged Iscar's Line Of Indexable Endmills For Heightened 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.
New Cutters And Carbide Insert Configurations From Iscar To Better Maximize The Machining Method
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.
Revolutionary End Mills By Iscar Will Amplify Productivity While Decreasing 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.
