Iscar adjustable Milling Cutters

Iscar recently made public a new family of High Speed Milling adjustable endmills and facemills that will advance milling of aluminum, non-metallics, cast iron and hardened steel. This should prove specifically beneficial in the automotive and aerospace industries.

The cutters are dynamically stabilized and particularly built to work with polycrystalline diamond (PCD) or cubic boron nitride (CBN) inserts. The use of these inserts will exceedingly increase surface finish. Conventional HSM-rated HELIMILL carbide inserts will additionally work with these tools. Internal coolant holes permit cooler cutting face and upgraded chip discharge and built-up edge resistance. The insert pockets have a flexible rear stopper, allowing for axial positioning of the cutting edge within 0.002 mm.

Iscar's endmills designated E90AD are obtainable in HSK A63 shanks in 4 diameters starting from 25 to 50 mm. Iscar Facemills designated F90AD cover the 50 to 80 mm diameter range are available in 4 diameters.

When implemented with Iscar HELIMILL carbide inserts, the adjustable high speed milling cutters produce a smooth cutting action at lesser cutting forces. HELIMILL inserts' helical cutting edges slowly enter the work piece diminishing the impact load on the cutting face.

CHATTERFREE Solid Carbide Endmills

Iscar is enlarging the exceptionally successful CHATTERFREE solid carbide 4 flute endmill family with the addition of smaller (3, 4 and 5 mm) and larger (25 mm) diameters. The latest solid carbide endmills are utilized for roughing and finishing operations. Due to their variable pitch they showcase outstanding chatter dampening capability. These endmills are an outstanding resolution for low power machines by increasing their material removal rate and decreasing vibration. They can be utilized for full slot machining of up to 2XD with solid carbide endmills.

Iscar's CHATTERFREE endmills improve material removal rate and cut down cycle time in most milling operations. Their special ground geometry provides exceptional surface finish and prolonged tool life, while machining at high material removal rates.

New ID5 PCD and IB85 PCBN Tipped Milling Inserts

Iscar is adding a completely new TANGMILL ID5 PCD wiper insert and 2 HELIMILL inserts tipped with IB85 PCBN, for machining cast iron and a extensive range of hard-to-machine metals at high cutting rates. The new LNAR 1106PN-R-S-W ID5 PCD tipped wiper insert has a extremely large frontal radius and sharp cutting edge. It provides a consistent clean-cut edge and fantastic surface finish of less than Ra 0.3 µm. Iscar's new HELIMILL insert ADKW 1505 PDER IB85 has an IB85 PCBN brazed tip and can be used on 90 separate milling cutters for semi-finishing and finish machining on cast iron. The insert includes a 0.8 mm corner radius and a honed cutting edge (0.03 mm). It can be used on the conventional F90AD...-SFR or the E90AD ...-HSK63-S axially adjustable milling tools.

By adjusting the axial position of the inserts, it is permissible to accomplish a 0.3-0.7 µm surface finish. IB85 is a fine grain polycrystalline cubic boron nitride grade. The minimal grain size enables grinding a tremendously sharp cutting edge and accomplishing high surface quality, which provide excellent tool life. The IB85 grade can be used for machining a wide range of challenging to machine metal at high cutting rates and provides superior tool life. IB85 contains 85% PCBN with Al Co and W binder.

It is a tremendously strong and tough material which can be employed for heavy roughing and interrupted cuts. The array of materials covered by IB85 encompasses hardened and cast steel of over 45 HRc, grey and nodular cast iron, powder compacted and sintered metals as well as heat resistant alloys.

Iscar Releases A Revolutionary Line Of Slitting Cutters Applying Tang-Grip Technology And The Sturdiness 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.

Brand New Tools And Carbide Insert Arrangements From Iscar To Better Enhance 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.

A Few Of Improvements In Carbide Inserts Provided By Iscar Over The Former Decade
Iscar is announcing a brand 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 more cutting edges, positive rake face, decreased cutting forces resulting in better performance.
