A Few Of Advancements In Carbide Inserts By Iscar

Iscar is starting a brand new unique milling system with tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has considerable advantages compared to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has additional cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in increased performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the outside of a variety of milling cutter types, providing unmatchable conditions also for heavy-duty applications with excellent surface quality, saving several other finishing operations. Mills are available for 90 degree shoulder milling and for facing with 45 degree lead angles.

Each carbide insert includes eight cutting edges, 4 for right-hand and 4 for left-hand cutting, upgrading the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges furnish on one side strong and accurate clamping of insert in the tool body, and on the other side, the positive axial rake angle. The usability of this positive axial rake design decreases the cutting forces owed to softer cut and easier penetration into the material, as well as changing force direction which is required for use on modernized machining centers with pallet systems less solid than on the classical transfer lines.

In normal applications like in the auto 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 auto 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 put into use.

New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal

Contemporary advancements coming from the headquarters of Iscar, delivering the new Upgrade campaign, which guarantees that they are looking to the future. The new Upgrade campaign, scheduled to be made public 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 improve productivity on the shop floor and to raise 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 functionality. Iscar's future trends include new carbide insert grades for efficient and money-saving machining, more cutting edges per insert and exceptional tangential clamping systems which can significantly diminish the cutting forces. The induction of the AL-TEC, PVD coating essentially for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating mainly for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for refined strength will revolutionize the way manufacturers machines cast iron. In addition, Iscar manufacturing mini inserts is an alternative trend within the Upgrade movement, referring to decreasing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to facilitate fine pitch configuration which will quicken feed rates. In addition, the small size of the carbide inserts and their tangential position in the pockets permit a much greater core diameter, in terms of tool design, when compared to regular radially positioned inserts.

Iscar Recently Releases Several Original 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.

Completely New Tools 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.

The Latest In Carbide Endmill Architectures 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.
