Iscar adjustable Milling Cutters

Iscar recently made public 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 specially beneficial in the automotive and aerospace industries.

The cutters are dynamically balanced and especially tailored to work with polycrystalline diamond (PCD) or cubic boron nitride (CBN) inserts. The use of these inserts will considerably improve surface finish. Standard HSM-rated HELIMILL carbide inserts will likewise work with these cutters. Internal coolant holes allow cooler cutting face along with improved chip expulsion and built-up edge resistance. The insert pockets possess a flexible rear stopper, allowing for axial positioning of the cutting edge within 0.002 mm.

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

When used with Iscar HELIMILL carbide inserts, the adjustable high speed milling cutters produce a fluid cutting action at lesser cutting forces. HELIMILL inserts' helical cutting edges gradually enter the work piece reducing the impact load on the cutting face.

CHATTERFREE Solid Carbide Endmills

Iscar is increasing the very successful CHATTERFREE solid carbide 4 flute endmill family with the addition of smaller (3, 4 and 5 mm) and larger (25 mm) diameters. The brand new solid carbide endmills are utilized for roughing and finishing operations. Due to their variable pitch they feature superior chatter decreasing capability. These endmills are an excellent solution for low power machines by increasing their material removal rate and eliminating vibration. They can be used for full slot machining of up to 2XD with solid carbide endmills.

Iscar's CHATTERFREE endmills improve stock removal rate and shrink cycle time in nearly all milling operations. Their distinctive ground geometry provides excellent surface finish and long tool life, while machining at high material removal rates.

New ID5 PCD and IB85 PCBN Tipped Milling Inserts

Iscar is adding a revolutionary TANGMILL ID5 PCD wiper insert and 2 HELIMILL inserts tipped with IB85 PCBN, for machining cast iron and a wide range of difficult-to-machine metals at high cutting rates. The new LNAR 1106PN-R-S-W ID5 PCD tipped wiper insert has a very large frontal radius and sharp cutting edge. It provides a consistent clean-cut edge and exceptional 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 distinctive milling cutters for semi-finishing and finish machining on cast iron. The insert features a 0.8 mm corner radius and a honed cutting edge (0.03 mm). It can be used on the standard F90AD...-SFR or the E90AD ...-HSK63-S axially adjustable milling tools.

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

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

Iscar Announces A Brand New Family Of Slitting Cutters Utilizing Tang-Grip Technology And The Strength 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.

Iscar Adds Their Latest Creations To A Extensive Line Of Successful 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.

Completely New Tools And Carbide Insert Configurations From Iscar To Better Maximize 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.

Brand New End Mills Coming From Iscar Can Boost Productivity While Reducing 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.

Several Progressions Have Extended 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.
