Revolutionary End Mills By Iscar Can Enhance Productivity While Decreasing Costs
Manufacturers and die & mold shops can remove chatter problems in numerous milling operations with Iscar's revolutionary Chatterfree carbide end mills. The cutters' variable-pitch flute pattern eradicates harmonic vibration, the chief source of chatter. This permits faster cutting and finer finish in rough or finish slotting, shoulder milling and cavity milling. In addition, users also report prolonged edge life due to lessened chatter. The chatter-free feature is realizable in both solid carbide endmills and tips in Iscar's Multi-Master replaceable-tip line. Diameter range is 6 to 20mm for the solid carbide endmills, and 8 to 20mm for Multi-Master tips. These new endmills are ideal for lower power machines with ISO40 or BT40 adaptations. The solid carbide version can achieve full slot machining up to 2xD. Depth capacity on the replaceable-tip version is more restrained since the active length is shorter. In full slotting applications on alloy steel, the solid carbide fabrication readily handles 0.03-0.05 feed rates at 180-220mm/min surface speed and 2xD depth of cut.
Finishred - Brand New Solid Carbide Endmills
Iscar is introducing the EFR.. B44 and the MM EFS.. Finishred a innovative solid carbide end mills family. The Finishred carbide endmill is a combination of both roughing and finishing endmills in a single tool. Roughing endmills remove material from work pieces more swiftly and accurately than traditional endmills. However, roughing endmills leave grooves on the machined surface. In repercussion, after using a roughing endmill, a finishing endmill must to be used in order to attain a even surface finish. This demands time-consuming tool change, setup time and inevitably of keeping two endmill types in the inventory.
Qualities of the Finishred Endmills:
The EFR.. B44 and the MM EFS.. endmills present 4 flutes with 45 degree helix, two serrated flutes and two continuous flutes.
The cutting edges of the finishing flutes are radially more distant from the tool axis than the cutting edges of the serrated flutes. The finishing flutes eliminate the grooves produced by the roughing flutes, leaving a fine surface finish.
The tool is fully competent and allows running at rough machining parameters, ending in finish surface quality.
The distinguished tool design lessens vibration at high load applications.
The tool creates short and long chips simultaneously. This chip mixture is evacuated more promptly than each individual chip type, an extraordinary solution in slotting and cavity milling operations.
The Finishred is also featured with the Multi-Master indexable milling head selection which combines the Finishred includes with the benefit of little setup time, no regrinding costs and the ample range of shank and extension choices are accessible for the Multi-Master milling heads.
A single tool substitutes the roughing and finishing endmills; therefore lowering inventory.
Tool change and setup time can be omitted.
An extra tool position is accomplished on the machine
New Chip Splitting Solid Carbide Endmills for Increased Metal Removal Rates
ISCAR is releasing the ECP-3/4L family of chip splitting endmills. The radical endmills are presented with 3 and four 38 degree flutes in grade IC900. They have 2xD and long shanks with diminished neck diameter, which help machining along high shoulders, at high feeds. These endmills, due to their chip splitting element and force distribution can be used very efficiently on reduced power machines (CAT40/BT40/ISO40). The serrated cutting edge incorperates flat peaks which leave a improved surface finish, in contrast to the current rougher carbide endmills. The ECP endmills are advocated for machining austenitic and martensitic stainless steel, at up to 2xD depth of cut. They can be used on alloyed steel as well. All of the preliminary tests conducted at numerous customers' locations showed exceptional results.
