ISCAR has expanded its popular line of HELIDO ROUND H400 fine-pitch mills to improve profile machining and ramping over a wider range of applications. Included now are 10 and 16mm inserts, to complement the original 12mm insert. Matching cutters cover the 1.0" & 1.25" diameters for endmills and 1.5" to 4" for facemills.
Unlike true rounds, HELIDO 400 ROUND inserts have a periphery that consists of bounding arcs with radii that would be found on pure rounds twice their size. Each insert has four 120 degree arcs. This enables the cutters to have more flutes compared to existing standards resulting in higher feed capability.
The inserts are double sided, with helical cutting edges for gentler entry plus top-face geometry to create 10 degree positive-rake inclination. They feature ISCAR's innovative SUMO TEC post-coating treatment that improves performance 35 percent on average. Each insert provides four 120 degree arcs.
Dovetail clamping design in the cutter helps to direct forces to the body thus relieving clamping screw of the impact loads. The unique HELIDO 400 ROUND insert shape creates four fixed indexing positions per side and firmer no-twist seating able to withstand high cutting forces. Fixed indexing positions also ensure that all four edges are used, and eliminate the uncertainties that lead to discarding of rounds which still have good edges.
The chatter or vibration in metal cutting poses an eternal challenge for manufacturers. The ISCAR products of the latest HIGH QLINE family of cutting tools offer an interesting solution: Indexable Milling Insert with an asymmetric shape.
Iscar Metals' HELIDO S890 FSN is a new family of right-hand indexable face mills with an 88°Cutting edge angle (2 degree lead) with 8 helical cutting edges, which can be used for up to 9mm depth of cut.
ISCAR is expanding the range of MINCUT inserts and tools for face grooving and turning in a diameter range of 10 to 34mm, for up to 9mm grooving depth.
Following the introduction of grade IC6015, ISCAR is introducing an additional new, SUMO TEC CVD coated grade, IC6025, which was developed for machining stainless steel at moderate cutting speeds for stable or unstable conditions.
Deep hole drilling is very popular in the automotive, die and mold and aerospace industries. ISCAR took the gundrill technology one step further when developing the new CHAMGUN for deep hole drilling; this is a gundrill that enables the replacement of drilling heads while the driver is still…
ISCAR continues to create fresh solutions for difficult ID machining problems through strategic additions to its popular PICCO family of solid carbide inserts.
With a new level of built-in asymmetry, ISCAR EC-H CHATTERFREE solid carbide endmills bring a new level of speed and process security to slotting and shoulder milling of ferrous metals.
