Iscar is introducing 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 elevated performance. The carbide inserts are screw-clamped on the periphery of assorted milling cutter types, providing unmatchable conditions also for heavy-duty applications with exceptional surface quality, saving additional finishing operations. Cutters 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 four 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 use of this positive axial rake design decreases 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 modern machining centers with pallet systems less rigid than on the classical transfer lines.

In typical applications like in the automotive industry, the depth-of-cut is less than thirty thousandths of an inch enabling the use of all eight cutting edges of the Tangmill carbide inserts. Furthermore, in the automotive industry it is normal 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 used.

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 campaign, scheduled to be released at the end of year 2008, will offer completely new tools for milling, turning, hole making and multifunction operations, complementing the FMR (Fast Metal Removal) tool families with one aim in mind - to increase productivity on the shop floor and to boost profits.

Iscar's feature for this year, with no doubt, are the new coatings, new substrate formations, new cutting edge geometries, new sizes, new tangential clamping mechanisms and new coolant nozzle capabilities. Iscar's future trends incorporate new carbide insert grades for efficient and cost-effective machining, more cutting edges to each insert and upper-level tangential clamping mechanisms which will significantly diminish the cutting pressure. The inception of the AL-TEC, PVD coating chiefly for nodular cast iron, a-TECH, CVD coating mainly for grey cast iron and the DO-TECH, dual CVD PVD coating for enhanced strength will refashion the way manufacturers machines cast iron. Furthermore, Iscar producing mini inserts is an alternative progression within the Upgrade campaign, referring to minimizing the sizes of the Tangmill carbide inserts into Minitang, in order to facilitate fine pitch configuration which will accelerate feed rates. In addition, the compact size of the carbide inserts and their tangential position in the pockets enable a much larger core diameter, in terms of tool design, when compared to normal radially oriented inserts.

The Newest In Carbide Endmill Architectures In A Extended And Effective 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.

Iscar Releases A New Line Of Slitting Cutters Utilizing 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.

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.
