Iscar now offers a family of high-performance slitting tools that combine the convenience and security of Tang-Grip clamping with the added sturdiness of the revolutionary Sumo Tec insert grades.
The conception, already validated effective 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 special hand tool, and are held securely in place without having the need without requiring clamps, upper jaws or set screws that can weaken the insert and obstruct chip flow. The pocket composition utilizes cutting forces to retain the insert seated tightly in position, eliminating any risk of insert pull-out. The Tang-Grip clamping system also fosters more accurate slitting cuts plus increased pocket and insert lifespan.
Iscar's Sumo Tec insert grades showcase a distinct post-coating treatment which greatly increases tool life and dependability.
Introduced in late '07, the new Sumo Tec treatment smooths the insert's coated surface to banish microscopic stress raisers, diminish heat and friction and boost chip flow. The result is enhanced toughness and opposition to chipping and built-up edge, all leading to greater 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, providing higher feed rates.
Their increased rigidity leads to straighter, better accurate cuts and lower vibration even in large-diameter cutters. The revolutionary Tangslit TGSF cutters come in 100 to 160 mm diameters, 3 and 4 mm widths and can accept 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, giving exceptional resistance to impact loads and built-up edge. This grade is suggested for slitting heat resistant alloys, austenitic stainless steel, hard alloys & carbon steel.
IC830, supplying increased toughness for heavier parting and grooving involving interrupted cuts. It is suitable for any stainless steel & high temperature alloys.
IC908, a hard, fine-grain substrate with superior chipping resistance, mixed with a completely new Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating. It is perfect for nodular or grey 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.
Each Tangslit and Tang-Grip inserts are found in J- or C-type chipformer geometries from Iscar.
Iscar Recently Made Public Several Revolutionary 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.
Some Of The Many Advancements In Carbide Inserts Coming From Iscar From Over The Last Decade
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.
Several Developments Have Enhanced Iscar's Line Of Indexable Endmills For Expanded 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.
Brand New Tools And Carbide Insert Arrangements From Iscar To Better Maximize 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.
