A Few Of The Numerous Improvements In Carbide Inserts By Iscar
Iscar is introducing a brand new unique milling system that includes tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has notable advantages in comparison to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has more cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in greater performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the edge of assorted milling cutter types, providing unmatched conditions also for heavy-duty applications with superior surface quality, saving further finishing operations. End mills are available 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, improving the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges furnish on one side strong and exact clamping of insert in the tool body, and on the other side, the positive axial rake angle. The value of this positive axial rake composition decreases the cutting forces due to softer cut and easier penetration into the material, as well as changing force direction which is needed for use on modernized machining centers with pallet systems less rigid than on the classical transfer lines.
In common applications like in the automotive industry, the depth-of-cut is less than thirty thousandths of an inch providing the use of all eight 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 implemented.
New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal
Recent advancements coming from the headquarters of Iscar, delivering the new Upgrade movement, which guarantees that they are looking toward the future. The new Upgrade movement, scheduled 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 improve productivity on the shop floor and to boost profits.
Iscar's focal point for this year, with no doubt, are the new coatings, new substrate combinations, new cutting edge geometries, new sizes, new tangential clamping mechanisms and new coolant nozzle qualities. Iscar's future trends unite new carbide insert grades for efficient and economical machining, more cutting edges per insert and forward-looking tangential clamping systems which will significantly lessen the cutting tension. The debut of the AL-TEC, PVD coating largely for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating mainly for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for improved strength will revolutionize the way manufacturers machines cast iron. In addition, Iscar producing mini inserts is an alternate direction within the Upgrade campaign, referring to reducing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to facilitate fine pitch configuration which will accelerate feed rates. In addition, the small size of the carbide inserts and their tangential arrangement in the pockets permit a much larger core diameter, in terms of tool configuration, when compared to traditional radially oriented inserts.
Some Improvements Have Enlarged Iscar's Line Of Indexable Endmills For Increased 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.
Cutting Edge Cutters And Carbide Insert Shapes 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.
