New End Mills Coming From Iscar Will Enhance Productivity While Lowering Costs


Producers and die & mold shops can eradicate chatter problems in plenty milling operations with Iscar's new Chatterfree carbide end mills. The cutters' variable-pitch flute pattern eliminates harmonic vibration, the primary source of chatter. This allows faster cutting and superior finish in rough or finish slotting, shoulder milling and cavity milling. In addition, users also report prolonged edge life due to lowered chatter. The chatter-free feature is applicable in both solid carbide endmills and tips in Iscar's Multi-Master replaceable-tip line. Diameter range is 6 to 20mm for the solid carbide endmills, and 8 to 20mm for Multi-Master tips. These unique endmills are ideal for reduced power machines with ISO40 or BT40 adaptations. The solid carbide variant can handle full slot machining up to 2xD. Depth capability on the replaceable-tip version is more constrained since the active length is shorter. In full slotting applications on alloy steel, the solid carbide fabrication surely handles 0.03-0.05 feed rates at 180-220mm/min surface speed and 2xD depth of cut.

Finishred - Innovative Solid Carbide Endmills

Iscar is presenting the EFR.. B44 and the MM EFS.. Finishred a revolutionary solid carbide end mills family. The Finishred carbide endmill is a blending of both roughing and finishing endmills in a single tool. Roughing endmills remove material from work pieces more quickly and accurately than conventional endmills. However, roughing endmills leave grooves on the machined surface. In consequence, after using a roughing endmill, a finishing endmill needs to be used in order to achieve a even surface finish. This means time-consuming tool change, setup time and inevitably of maintaining two endmill types in the inventory.

Features of the Finishred Endmills:

The EFR.. B44 and the MM EFS.. endmills feature 4 flutes with 45 degree helix, two serrated flutes and two continuous flutes.

The cutting edges of the finishing flutes are radially farther from the tool axis than the cutting edges of the serrated flutes. The finishing flutes phase out the grooves created by the roughing flutes, leaving a flush surface finish.

The tool is fully competent and permits running at rough machining parameters, ending in finish surface quality.

The distinctive tool design lessens vibration at high load applications.

The tool creates short and long chips simultaneously. This chip mixture is evacuated more easily than each individual chip type, an extraordinary solution in slotting and cavity milling functions.

The Finishred is also made available with the Multi-Master indexable milling head alternative which couples the Finishred includes with the advantage of little setup time, no regrinding costs and the wide range of shank and extension choices are available for the Multi-Master milling heads.

A single tool replaces the roughing and finishing endmills; therefore lowering stock.

Tool change and setup time can be waived.

An additional tool position is produced on the machine

New Chip Splitting Solid Carbide Endmills for Raised Metal Removal Rates

ISCAR is announcing the ECP-3/4L family of chip splitting endmills. The revolutionary endmills are obtainable with 3 and four 38 degree flutes in grade IC900. They feature 2xD and long shanks with decreased neck diameter, which facilitate machining along high shoulders, at high feeds. These endmills, due to their chip splitting feature and force distribution can be used very effectively on lesser power machines (CAT40/BT40/ISO40). The serrated cutting edge includes flat peaks which leave a nicer surface finish, in comparison to the current rougher carbide endmills. The ECP endmills are favored for machining austenitic and martensitic stainless steel, at up to 2xD depth of cut. They can be used on alloyed steel as well. All of the preliminary tests conducted at numerous customers' locations showed exceptional results.
