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

Iscar is introducing a completely new unique milling system that includes 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 numerous cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in better performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the edge of various milling cutter types, providing optimum conditions also for heavy-duty applications with exceptional 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 possesses 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 supply 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 design decreases the cutting forces owing to softer cut and easier penetration into the material, as well as changing force direction which is critical for use on up-to-date machining centers with pallet systems less rigid than on the conventional transfer lines.

In typical 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 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 implemented.

New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal

Recent progress 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 distributed 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 enhance productivity on the shop floor and to boost profits.

Iscar's focus 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 time-saving machining, more cutting edges per insert and superior tangential clamping systems which will significantly cut down the cutting pressure. The inception of the AL-TEC, PVD coating chiefly for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating chiefly for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for upgraded strength will revolutionize the way industry machines cast iron. In addition, Iscar producing mini inserts is an additional progression within the Upgrade campaign, referring to minimizing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to aid fine pitch configuration which will quicken feed rates. In addition, the small size of the carbide inserts and their tangential orientation in the pockets make possible a much larger core diameter, in terms of tool configuration, when compared to normal radially oriented inserts.

Completely New End Mills Coming From Iscar Can Boost 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.

Various Developments Have Extended 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.

Iscar Adds Their Latest Innovations To A Extended Line Of Prosperous Hole Making Solutions
Iscar recently released several different drilling innovations to meet their customers needs. These new products are Sumocham Drill, DR-DH and Deep Drills. Drawing off of their experience Iscar has come up with new and innovative ways to increase productivity for the end user.

Cutting Edge Cutters And Carbide Insert Shapes 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.
