Iscar right now offers a family of high-performance slitting tools that incorporate the convenience and security of Tang-Grip clamping with the added strength of the revolutionary Sumo Tec insert grades.

The notion, already confirmed successful in Tang-Grip parting tools, has now been spread to slitting cutters. In the patented Tang-Grip clamping system, inserts are press-fit into their pockets accompanied by a specific hand tool, and are gripped firmly in place without the need without requiring clamps, upper jaws or set screws that can weaken the insert and obstruct chip flow. The pocket design uses cutting forces to hold the insert seated tightly in position, preventing any chance of insert pull-out. The Tang-Grip clamping system also fosters more accurate slitting cuts plus lengthened pocket and insert lifespan.

Iscar's Sumo Tec insert grades showcase a specialized post-coating treatment which considerably boosts tool life and dependability.

Unveiled in late '07, the brand new Sumo Tec treatment flattens the insert's coated surface to banish microscopic stress raisers, diminish heat and friction and enhance chip flow. The result is improved toughness and opposition to chipping and built-up edge, all leading to greater tool lifespan. The golden-colored flank on Sumo Tec inserts facilitates wear detection. Size for size, Tangslit cutters give more teeth than Iscar's SGSF cutters, providing higher feed rates.

Their increased rigidity leads to straighter, increased accurate cuts and lowered vibration even in large-diameter cutters. The brand new Tangslit TGSF cutters come in 100 to 160 mm diameters, 3 and 4 mm widths and can accept the exact same assortment of inserts as Tang-Grip parting tools. Additional sizes will be added.

Available Sumo Tec grades for Tangslit cutters include:
IC808, with a tough submicron substrate below a Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating, giving exceptional resistance to impact loads and built-up edge. This grade is recommended for slitting heat resistant alloys, austenitic stainless steel, hard alloys and carbon steel.

IC830, presenting increased toughness for heavier parting & grooving involving interrupted cuts. It is fitting for every stainless steel & high temperature alloys.

IC908, a hard, fine-grain substrate with outstanding chipping resistance, combined with a brand new Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating. It is perfect for nodular or grey cast iron.

IC928 and 928A, PVD TiAlN-coated tough grades suited for stainless steel, high temperature alloys and other alloy steels. These grades are also recommended for interrupted cuts and heavy operations.

Every Tangslit and Tang-Grip inserts are found in J- or C-type chipformer geometries from Iscar.

Several Progressions Have Extended Iscar's Families Of Indexable Endmills For Heightened 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.

Iscar Adds Their Most Recent Creations To A Extended Line Of Prospering Hole Making Solutions
Iscar recently released several different drilling innovations to meet their customers needs. These new products are Sumocham Drill, DR-DH and Deep Drills. Drawing off of their experience Iscar has come up with new and innovative ways to increase productivity for the end user.

Original Tools And Carbide Insert Compositions 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.

Some Of The Many Advancements In Carbide Inserts Coming From Iscar
Iscar is introducing a new unique milling system with tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has significant advantages compared to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has more cutting edges, positive rake face, reduced cutting forces resulting in higher performance.
