A Few Of Improvements In Carbide Inserts By Iscar

Iscar is adding a new unique milling system with tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has significant advantages compared to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has more cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in elevated performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the perimeter of numerous milling cutter types, providing prime conditions also for heavy-duty applications with fantastic 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 has eight cutting edges, 4 for right-hand and 4 for left-hand cutting, increasing the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges provide on one side strong and accurate 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 diminishes 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 up-to-date machining centers with pallet systems less firm than on the traditional transfer lines.

In standard applications like in the automotive industry, the depth-of-cut is less than thirty thousandths of an inch empowering the use of all eight cutting edges of the Tangmill carbide inserts. Furthermore, in the automotive industry it is routine 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 utilized.

New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal

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

Iscar's feature 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 features. Iscar's future trends include new carbide insert grades for effective and cost-effective machining, more cutting edges per insert and upper-level tangential clamping apparatus which will significantly decrease the cutting strain. The introduction of the AL-TEC, PVD coating essentially for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating essentially for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for enhanced strength will change the way manufacturers machines cast iron. Moreover, Iscar producing mini inserts is a different trend 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 expedite feed rates. In addition, the small size of the carbide inserts and their tangential position in the pockets make possible a much larger core diameter, in terms of tool design, when compared to ordinary radially oriented inserts.

Iscar Recently Made Public A Variety Of Revolutionary 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.

Iscar Adds Their Latest Creations To A Lengthy Line Of Prospering 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.

New End Mills Coming From Iscar Can Multiply 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.

Numerous Developments Have Broadened 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.
