Iscar is announcing a brand new unique milling system using tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has meaningful advantages in comparison 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 perimeter of different milling cutter types, providing unmatched conditions also for heavy-duty applications with remarkable surface quality, saving additional finishing operations. End 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, enhancing the economy of use. The two, toward-center-slanted cutting edges furnish on one side strong and dependable 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 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 stable than on the classical transfer lines.

In standard applications like in the automotive industry, the depth-of-cut is less than thirty thousandths of an inch providing 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 utilized.

New ISCAR UPGRADES for Fast Metal Removal

Newly born advancements coming from the headquarters of Iscar, delivering the new Upgrade campaign, which guarantees that they are looking toward the future. The new Upgrade movement, planned 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 enhance productivity on the shop floor and to expand profits.

Iscar's focal point 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 capabilities. Iscar's future trends unite new carbide insert grades for effective and economical machining, more cutting edges per insert and upper-level tangential clamping apparatus which can significantly lessen the cutting strain. The inception of the AL-TEC, PVD coating largely for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating essentially for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for improved strength will revolutionize the way manufacturers machines cast iron. Moreover, Iscar offering mini inserts is an alternate trend within the Upgrade campaign, referring to reducing 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 make possible a much bigger core diameter, in terms of tool configuration, when compared to standard radially oriented inserts.

The Latest In Carbide Endmill Designs In A Lengthy And Effective Family 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.

Iscar Announces A Revolutionary Line Of Slitting Cutters Using Tang-Grip Technology And The Durability 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.
