Following excellent market response and demand, ISCAR
is expanding the family of SUMOCHAM DCN 12xD depth to diameter ratio drills by adding 8 to 11.5 mm diameter drills.

The new DCN drills feature cylindrical shanks that enable clamping the drill in hydraulic toolholders (most recommended) or in spring collets. All drill bodies feature helical coolant holes.

The HCP drilling heads enable drilling with 12xD drills without the need for pre-hole preparation. These HCP drilling heads for general use are suitable for ISO P and ISO K material groups.

Note: Prior to using the 12xD drill with inserts other than the HCP insert, it is recommended to drill a pre-hole with a DCN 1.5xD short drill or a centering drill for optimal performance and reliability.

The new 12 L/D ratio drills can be used on clad plates and are commonly used in the Heat Exchanger and other industries.

ISCAR is expanding the HELIDO 800 LINE by introducing the SOF45W-R26 new wedge clamped 45 degree cutting edge angle face mills.

The inserts on the new face mills are clamped by a wedge system, featuring high clamping security and edge location repeatability (both radial and axial).
The wedge clamping system enables quick and easy mounting and indexing of the inserts.

The new mills are intended for heavy duty machining which enables high metal removal rates (MRR), mainly for components made from steel and cast iron.

These economical, cost-effective milling tools can machine at high cutting parameters, dramatically increasing productivity.

The mills are available in a 100 -315 mm diameter range, with coarse and fine pitch configurations.

All the mills have seats to avoid deformation of the pocket and to ensure body protection.

The new versatile face mills can carry in their pockets either the S845 SNMU 26… square, double-sided insert with 8 cutting edges or the ONMU 10… octagonal, double-sided insert with 16 cutting edges.

Features

• Face milling tools for heavy duty applications with 8 cutting edges up to 11 mm D.O.C. and 16 cutting edges for 7 mm D.O.C.
• Wedge clamping for quick and rigid insert holding
• Most economical regarding price per edge
• Designed for milling large parts on powerful machines in various industries
• Suitable for roughing application and interrupted cut

Attached is a link to a PDF brochure that includes all of the NOTCH-GRIP tools and inserts currently being offered.

The new NOTCH-GRIP tools and inserts will enable us to introduce our advantageous products to end-users who currently use these standard market tools.

ISCAR is introducing the IC806 complementary SUMO TEC PVD coated grade for face grooving high temperature alloys, especially Inconel 718 and austenitic stainless steel.

IC806 Grade – A Winning Solution for Inconel and Stainless Steel Machining  ISCAR’s aim is to effectively machine Inconel and austenitic stainless steel and therefore has successfully developed grade IC806; a sub-micron grade with superior wear resistant properties and advanced PVD TiAlN. ISCAR’s SUMO-TECH coating exhibits better results when compared to competitor grades and other ISCAR grades.  These materials are extensively used in the food, chemical and medical equipment industries.

IC806 has a hard submicron substrate with PVD coating and a special post coating treatment that provides substantially improved tool life and better reliability.

1. Substrate
• A very hard submicron grain size
2. SUMO TEC PVD coating
• Improves toughness
• Improves flaking & chipping resistance
• Provides very reliable and repeatable results
Recommendations
1. Turning Inconel 718 at moderate to high cutting speeds
2. Stable to slightly unstable conditions
The IC806 new grade was tested and compared to leading competitor grades with
advantageous results.

Following market demand, ISCAR is expanding the options of the EC-H4S-CF endmills family by adding tools with corner radii to the already existing chamfered corner tools.

The new EC-H4S-CF endmills with corner radii are available in 6.0, 8.0, 10.0 and 12.0 mm diameters.

EC-H4S-CF tools feature 1xD short cutting edge length, hub section diameter 7% larger than the  regular-type endmills and a radial relief angle that features a single-angle unlike the regular-type with three relief stages.

All the above led to a stronger tool design and reduced production costs that enabled price reduction.

The new tools are made from grades IC608 and IC900, recommended for hardened steel (IC900 for up to 45 HRC and IC608 for 45-60 HRC) and milling alloy steel at moderate to high cutting speeds.

The new EC-H4S-CF tools should be offered against the competitor’s exchangeable head tools and for short (1xD) D.O.C. applications that require round corners.

ISCAR is introducing MTR spiral flute reamers for 1 to 12 mm H7 through hole diameters in high speed reaming.

The new 59805… reamers feature a coolant groove along the shank side (apart from
1.0 to 3.5 shank sizes) and are available for a hole diameter range of 1 to 12 mm H7 standard hole tolerance.

The new reamers are coated with an ultra-thin PVD process which provides outstanding performance.

MTR reamers complement the BAYO T-REAM left flute reamers for through hole applications that are available in the diameter range of 11.5 – 32 mm for high speed reaming.

Advantages

• High productivity
• Excellent chip flow
• High precision
• Excellent surface finishing

ISCAR is expanding the MULTI-MASTER interchangeable milling heads line with new engraving tool heads and new centering drill diameters.

MM EPG
ISCAR is expanding the point angle variety of the single-flute MULTI-MASTER engraving tool heads with four new 60o and 90° point angles featuring flat crests (the current tools feature radius crests). Similar to the current engraving heads, the new tools feature T05 MULTI-MASTER threaded connection.

MM ECS
ISCAR is expanding the small diameter range of the interchangeable MULTI-MASTER centering drill heads (according to DIN 332 standard) by adding 1.0; 1.6 and 2.0 diameters.

Following market demand, ISCAR is introducing an adjustable torque handle with interchangeable wrenches and Torx bits, designed for secure and accurate tightening of MULTI-MASTER milling heads.

Uncontrolled clamping torque can sometimes cause performance problems on MULTI-MASTER (MM) milling heads. Over-tightening can cause MM thread breakage while insufficient clamping torque can cause vibrations, thus, drastically reducing tool life and part accuracy. Recommended clamping torque values are published in the MM catalog.

ISCAR now offers the means to actually control the recommended clamping torque setting. The required clamping torque can easily be set on a handle with a scale window that displays the set torque value. A highly reliable mechanism enables precise torque setting values within ±6% accuracy.

Each adjustable torque handle contains a user guide (11 languages).

At this stage, the wrenches and Torx bits are available for the T04 MM thread size and for the T05-T15 MM thread connection sizes – except for MM GRIT 16-22 groove milling heads that use MM EGR clamping keys. A solution for these will be available in the next stage.

Handle Features

• Ergonomic design for a convenient and strong grip
• A single handle with an adjustable torque range for the T05-T15 MM connection threads
• Acoustic indication (a “click” sound) when reaching the set torque to avoid overtightening.

ISCAR is expanding the BHD MB boring heads with a digital display by adding:
