Some Of The Many Improvements In Carbide Inserts Coming From Iscar From Over The Years

Iscar is starting a completely new unique milling system using tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has noteworthy advantages compared to the current flat, square shapes. The new design has more cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in elevated performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the periphery of a number of milling cutter types, providing unsurpassed conditions also for heavy-duty applications with remarkable surface quality, saving several other finishing operations. Cutters are presented for 90 degree shoulder milling and for facing with 45 degree lead angles.

Each carbide insert has eight cutting edges, 4 for right-hand and four for left-hand cutting, upgrading the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges supply on one side strong and dependable clamping of insert in the tool body, and on the other side, the positive axial rake angle. The usefulness of this positive axial rake design reduces the cutting forces due to softer cut and easier penetration into the material, as well as changing force direction which is mandatory for use on modern machining centers with pallet systems less solid than on the conventional transfer lines.

In standard applications like in the auto industry, the depth-of-cut is less than thirty thousandths of an inch enabling the use of all 8 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 8 cutting edges of the Tangmill inserts can be used.

New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal

Contemporary progress coming from the headquarters of Iscar, delivering the new Upgrade campaign, which guarantees that they are looking to the future. The new Upgrade campaign, proposed to be released at the end of year 2008, will offer new tools for milling, turning, hole making and multifunction operations, complementing the FMR (Fast Metal Removal) tool families with one aim in mind - to increase productivity on the shop floor and to raise profits.

Iscar's focus for this year, with no doubt, are the new coatings, new substrate compositions, new cutting edge geometries, new sizes, new tangential clamping mechanisms and new coolant nozzle functionality. Iscar's future trends incorporate new carbide insert grades for effectual and cost-effective machining, more cutting edges per insert and upper-level tangential clamping mechanisms which can significantly cut down the cutting strain. The launching of the AL-TEC, PVD coating mainly for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating largely for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for enhanced strength will revolutionize the way manufacturers machines cast iron. Furthermore, Iscar manufacturing mini inserts is an additional trend within the Upgrade movement, referring to minimizing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to simplify fine pitch configuration which will accelerate feed rates. In addition, the small size of the carbide inserts and their tangential position in the pockets enable a much greater core diameter, in terms of tool configuration, when compared to standard radially positioned inserts.

Brand New Tools And Carbide Insert Configurations From Iscar To Better Maximize The Machining Process
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.

The Most Recent In Carbide Endmill Designs In A Extended And Successful 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.

Numerous Advancements 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.

Iscar Adds Their Latest Innovations To A Extensive Line Of Outstanding 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.

Iscar Recently Releases Numerous Revolutionary Lines To Increase 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.
