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

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

The concept, already confirmed 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 accompanying a specialized hand tool, and are retained securely in place without the need for clamps, upper jaws or set screws that can weaken the insert and impede chip flow. The pocket design utilizes cutting forces to hold the insert seated tightly in position, removing any danger of insert pull-out. The Tang-Grip clamping system also fosters more accurate slitting cuts plus lengthened pocket and insert life.

Iscar's Sumo Tec insert grades feature a specialized post-coating treatment which extensively boosts tool life and constancy.

Launched in late 2007, the new Sumo Tec treatment flattens the insert's coated surface to eliminate microscopic stress raisers, reduce heat and friction and improve chip flow. The result is enhanced toughness and opposition to chipping and built-up edge, all leading to enhanced tool life. The golden-colored side on Sumo Tec inserts facilitates 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, more accurate cuts and reduced vibration even in large-diameter cutters. The brand new Tangslit TGSF cutters come in 100 to 160 mm diameters, 3 and 4 mm widths and can accept the exact same variety of inserts as Tang-Grip parting tools. Some other sizes will be added.

Available 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 recommended for slitting heat resistant alloys, austenitic stainless steel, hard alloys & carbon steel.

IC830, presenting increased toughness for heavier parting and grooving including interrupted cuts. It is suitable for every stainless steel and high temperature alloys.

IC908, a hard, fine-grain substrate with excellent chipping resistance, combined with a brand new Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating. It is perfect for nodular or grey cast iron.

IC928 and 928A, PVD TiAlN-coated tough grades fitting for stainless steel, high temperature alloys and other alloy steels. These grades are likewise recommended for interrupted cuts and heavy operations.

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

Some Of Advancements In Carbide Inserts Coming From 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.

Iscar Adds Their Latest Creations To A Lengthy Line Of Flourishing Hole Generating 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.

The Latest In Carbide Endmill Architectures In A Extended And Prosperous Line 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 Improvements Have Enhanced Iscar's Line Of Indexable Endmills For Increased 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.

New End Mills From Iscar Will Increase Productivity While Shrinking 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.
