ISCAR is introducing the SD-SP15, a new family of narrow slotting and groove milling cutters, featuring 1.25" diameter milling heads with 8 teeth in a width range of .125" — .250" for maximum depth of cut up to .315".
The new cutters consist of interchangeable solid carbide T-slot milling heads and cylindrical steel shanks assembled by means of a unique spline connection. Also available is an adapter with the SP spline connection on one side and T12 MULTI-MASTER threaded connection on the other side, which enables using all T12 standard MULTI-MASTER shanks.
The spline connection is used to transmit the torque in the best way. It ensures very durable assembly to withstand considerable cutting forces during slot milling and bending forces caused by long reach overhang. The spline connection designation is SP15, where "15" indicates the connection size.
The general-duty cutting geometry of the heads is suited for efficient slot milling on a wide spectrum of workpiece materials. The cutter heads feature an SP15 internal spline mounted on a matching external spline on the shank secured by a central screw.
The new heads are made from the versatile IC908 grade and they are based on the successful cutting geometry of themm-TS MULTI-MASTER heads.
Related Glossary Terms
- depth of cut
depth of cut
Distance between the bottom of the cut and the uncut surface of the workpiece, measured in a direction at right angles to the machined surface of the workpiece.
- gang cutting ( milling)
gang cutting ( milling)
Machining with several cutters mounted on a single arbor, generally for simultaneous cutting.
- milling
milling
Machining operation in which metal or other material is removed by applying power to a rotating cutter. In vertical milling, the cutting tool is mounted vertically on the spindle. In horizontal milling, the cutting tool is mounted horizontally, either directly on the spindle or on an arbor. Horizontal milling is further broken down into conventional milling, where the cutter rotates opposite the direction of feed, or “up” into the workpiece; and climb milling, where the cutter rotates in the direction of feed, or “down” into the workpiece. Milling operations include plane or surface milling, endmilling, facemilling, angle milling, form milling and profiling.
- shank
shank
Main body of a tool; the portion of a drill or similar end-held tool that fits into a collet, chuck or similar mounting device.
- slotting
slotting
Machining, normally milling, that creates slots, grooves and similar recesses in workpieces, including T-slots and dovetails.
