Iscar Releases A Completely New Line Of Slitting Cutters Applying Tang-Grip Technology And The Strength Of Sumo Tec Grades

Iscar now offers a family of high-performance slitting tools that join the convenience and security of Tang-Grip clamping with the increased strength of the new Sumo Tec insert grades.

The concept, 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 clutched solidly in place without the need for clamps, upper jaws or set screws that can weaken the insert and impede chip flow. The pocket configuration uses cutting forces to keep the insert seated solidly in position, eliminating any prospect of insert pull-out. The Tang-Grip clamping system also fosters additional accurate slitting cuts plus lengthened pocket and insert life.

Iscar's Sumo Tec insert grades feature a specific post-coating treatment which substantially improves tool life and constancy.

Introduced in late 2007, the unique Sumo Tec treatment flattens the insert's coated surface to eliminate microscopic stress raisers, reduce 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 side on Sumo Tec inserts eases wear detection. Size for size, Tangslit cutters give more teeth than Iscar's SGSF cutters, enabling higher feed rates.

Their greater rigidity leads to straighter, increased accurate cuts and less 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.

Obtainable Sumo Tec grades for Tangslit cutters include:
IC808, with a tough submicron substrate below a Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating, offering excellent 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, providing greater toughness for heavier parting and grooving including interrupted cuts. It is appropriate for every stainless steel and high temperature alloys.

IC908, a hard, fine-grain substrate with excellent 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 favored for interrupted cuts and heavy operations.

Every Tangslit and Tang-Grip inserts are available in J- or C-type chipformer geometries from Iscar.

Iscar Adds Their Latest Innovations To A Extensive Line Of Prospering 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.

A Couple Of Advancements In Carbide Inserts By 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.

Various Progressions Have Extended Iscar's Families Of Indexable Endmills For Heightened 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.

The Most Recent In Carbide Endmill Designs In A Lengthy And Effective Family 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.

A Number Of Developments In Carbide Inserts Coming From Iscar Over The Past 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.

Cutting Edge End Mills By Iscar Will Raise Productivity While Decreasing 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.
