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 perception, already proven 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 with a special hand tool, and are held securely in place without the need for clamps, upper jaws or set screws that can weaken the insert and thwart chip flow. The pocket design uses cutting forces to hold the insert seated securely in position, eliminating any risk of insert pull-out. The Tang-Grip clamping system also fosters more accurate slitting cuts plus longer pocket and insert life.
Iscar's Sumo Tec insert grades showcase a special post-coating treatment which substantially boosts tool life and reliability.
Introduced in late '07, the new Sumo Tec treatment smooths the insert's coated surface to eliminate microscopic stress raisers, lessen heat and friction and improve chip flow. The result is improved toughness and opposition to chipping and built-up edge, all leading to longer tool life. The golden-colored flank on Sumo Tec inserts facilitates wear detection. Size for size, Tangslit cutters offer more teeth than Iscar's SGSF cutters, enabling higher feed rates.
Their better rigidity leads to straighter, more accurate cuts and less 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 accommodate the exact same selection 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 beneath a Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating, offering incredible 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 extra toughness for heavier parting and grooving involving interrupted cuts. It is suitable for all stainless steel and high temperature alloys.
IC908, a hard, fine-grain substrate with incredible chipping resistance, combined with a new Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating. It is perfect for nodular or gray cast iron.
IC928 and 928A, PVD TiAlN-coated tough grades suitable for stainless steel, high temperature alloys and other alloy steels. These grades are also recommended for interrupted cuts and heavy operations.
All Tangslit and Tang-Grip inserts are available in J- or C-type chipformer geometries from Iscar.
Iscar Adds Their Most Recent Creations To A Extended Line Of Outstanding 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.
Some Of The Many Improvements 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.
Iscar Recently Made Public Several Original Lines To Increase Their Family Of Milling Cutters
Iscar recently released a new family of High Speed Milling adjustable endmills and facemills that will improve milling of aluminum, non-metallics, cast iron and hardened steel. This should prove especially useful in the automotive and aerospace industries.
A Variety Of Developments 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 End Mills By Iscar Will Boost Productivity While Lowering Costs
Manufacturers and die & mold shops can banish chatter problems in numerous milling operations with Iscar's new Chatterfree end mills. The cutters' variable-pitch flute pattern eliminates harmonic vibration, the primary source of chatter. This enables faster cutting and finer finish in rough or finish slotting, shoulder milling and cavity milling.
Completely New Tools And Carbide Insert Arrangements From Iscar To Better Improve The Machining Procedure
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.
