A Couple Of Advancements In Carbide Inserts Coming From Iscar Over The Years



Iscar is announcing 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 additional cutting edges, positive rake face, diminished cutting forces resulting in elevated performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the perimeter of varied milling cutter types, providing unsurpassed 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 includes 8 cutting edges, 4 for right-hand and 4 for left-hand cutting, enhancing 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 owed to softer cut and easier penetration into the metal, as well as changing force direction which is mandatory for use on up-to-date machining centers with pallet systems less stable 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 automotive 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 utilized.

New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal

Newly born 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 made public 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 enhance productivity on the shop floor and to expand 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 money-saving machining, more cutting edges for each insert and upper-level tangential clamping apparatus which can significantly cut down the cutting pressure. The inception of the AL-TEC, PVD coating mainly for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating mainly for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for better strength will remodel the way manufacturers machines cast iron. Moreover, Iscar offering 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 facilitate fine pitch configuration which will expedite feed rates. In addition, the minimal size of the carbide inserts and their tangential position in the pockets facilitate a much bigger core diameter, in terms of tool configuration, when compared to normal radially oriented inserts.

Iscar Recently Made Public Many New Lines To Extend 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.

Push Pull Testing For Construction Industry With Calibrated Measuring Instruments. Stress Load Testing Methods For On Site Documentation To Testing Demands.
Push Pull Testing for the Railway industry for proof of reliable anchor fixings. Calibrated push pull force gauges are used for stress load testing along with tensile strength pull testing procedures. Proof of load testing undertaken, measured, recorded in a reliable and standard way to BS5080 Part 1 standards.

Iscar Releases A Revolutionary Family Of Slitting Cutters Using Tang-Grip Technology And The Strength 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.

Completely New Cutters And Carbide Insert Shapes 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.

Completely New End Mills Coming From Iscar Can Amplify Productivity While Reducing 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.
