Iscar now offers a family of high-performance slitting tools that join the convenience and security of Tang-Grip clamping with the added durability of the new Sumo Tec insert grades.
The notion, already demonstrated successful in Tang-Grip parting tools, has now been extended to slitting cutters. In the patented Tang-Grip clamping system, inserts are press-fit into their pockets accompanying a special hand tool, and are gripped firmly in place without the need for clamps, upper jaws or set screws that can weaken the insert and disrupt chip flow. The pocket configuration uses cutting forces to keep the insert seated solidly in position, eliminating any chance 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 specific post-coating treatment which substantially improves tool life and constancy.
Introduced in late '07, the brand new Sumo Tec treatment smooths the insert's coated surface to eliminate microscopic stress raisers, diminish heat and friction and enhance chip flow. The result is improved toughness and resistance to chipping and built-up edge, all leading to enhanced 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 superior rigidity leads to straighter, increased accurate cuts and diminished vibration even in large-diameter cutters. The new 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. Several other 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 outstanding resistance to impact loads and built-up edge. This grade is endorsed for slitting heat resistant alloys, austenitic stainless steel, hard alloys and carbon steel.
IC830, offering greater toughness for heavier parting and grooving involving interrupted cuts. It is fitting for all stainless steel and high temperature alloys.
IC908, a hard, fine-grain substrate with outstanding chipping resistance, joined with a new Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating. It is ideal 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 additionally 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 Latest Creations To A Long Line Of Prosperous Hole Producing SolutionsIscar 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.
The Most Recent In Carbide Endmill Designs In A Lengthy And Productive Family From IscarManufacturers 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.
A Few Of Advancements In Carbide Inserts From Iscar Over The YearsIscar 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.
Many Improvements Have Multiplied Iscar's Families Of Indexable Endmills For Heightened ProductivityHelido-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 Changes In Carbide Inserts Coming From Iscar Over The Previous DecadeIscar 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.
