Iscar Recently Releases Numerous New Lines To Continue Their Family Of Milling Cutters

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 especially helpful in the automotive and aerospace industries.

The cutters are dynamically stabilized and especially tailored to work with polycrystalline diamond (PCD) or cubic boron nitride (CBN) inserts. The use of these inserts will greatly enhance surface finish. Standard HSM-rated HELIMILL carbide inserts will likewise work with these tools. Internal coolant holes allow cooler cutting face along with upgraded 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 presented 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 sizes.

When implemented with Iscar HELIMILL carbide inserts, the adjustable high speed milling cutters produce a fluid cutting action at low 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 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 new solid carbide endmills are applied for roughing and finishing operations. Due to their variable pitch they showcase superior chatter decreasing ability. These endmills are an exceptional solution for low power machines by increasing their material removal rate and decreasing vibration. They can be used for full slot machining of up to 2XD with solid carbide endmills.

Iscar's CHATTERFREE endmills raise material removal rate and shrink cycle time in nearly all milling operations. Their unique ground geometry provides remarkable 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 extensive range of difficult-to-machine materials 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 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 distinct milling cutters for semi-finishing and finish machining on cast iron. The insert incorporates 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 permissible 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 tremendously 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 hard to machine material 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 employed for heavy roughing and interrupted cuts. The range of materials covered by IB85 includes 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 Adds Their Latest Innovations 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.

New End Mills Coming From Iscar Can Enhance 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.

The Latest In Carbide Endmill Architectures In A Long And Productive 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.

Cutting Edge Tools And Carbide Insert Compositions From Iscar To Better 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.

Several Advancements Have Multiplied Iscar's Families Of Indexable Endmills For Elevated 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.

A Number Of Improvements In Carbide Inserts Provided By Iscar Over The Last 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.
