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

The perception, already proven successful in Tang-Grip parting tools, has now been extended to slitting cutters. In the patented Tang-Grip clamping system, inserts are press-fit into their pockets with a special hand tool, and are retained firmly in place without the need for clamps, upper jaws or set screws that can weaken the insert and thwart chip flow. The pocket design uses cutting forces to keep the insert seated securely in position, eliminating any danger of insert pull-out. The Tang-Grip clamping system also fosters more accurate slitting cuts plus longer pocket and insert life.

Iscar's Sumo Tec insert grades showcase a special post-coating treatment which substantially improves tool life and reliability.

Introduced in late 2007, the brand new Sumo Tec treatment smooths the insert's coated surface to eradicate microscopic stress raisers, lessen heat and friction and improve chip flow. The result is improved toughness and resistance to chipping and built-up edge, all leading to longer tool life. The golden-colored side on Sumo Tec inserts facilitates wear detection. Size for size, Tangslit cutters offer more teeth than Iscar's SGSF cutters, allowing higher feed rates.

Their better rigidity leads to straighter, more accurate cuts and diminished vibration even in large-diameter cutters. The new Tangslit TGSF cutters come in 100 to 160 mm diameters, 3 and 4 mm widths and can accommodate the exact same selection 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 beneath a Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating, delivering incredible resistance to impact loads and built-up edge. This grade is recommended for slitting heat resistant alloys, austenitic stainless steel, hard alloys and carbon steel.

IC830, offering extra toughness for heavier parting and grooving including interrupted cuts. It is fitting for all stainless steel and high temperature alloys.

IC908, a hard, fine-grain substrate with incredible chipping resistance, combined with a new Sumo Tec TiAlN PVD coating. It is ideal for nodular or gray cast iron.

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

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

Iscar Adds Their Most Recent Innovations To A Extended Line Of Outstanding Hole Producing 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.

Some Of The Numerous Improvements In Carbide Inserts From Iscar From Over The Years
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.

Cutting Edge End Mills By Iscar Will Increase Productivity While Reducing 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.

Some Improvements Have Expanded Iscar's Families Of Indexable Endmills For Expanded 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.

A Few Of Innovations In Carbide Inserts Due To Iscar Across The Last Decade
Iscar is announcing a brand new unique milling system that includes tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has meaningful advantages compared to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has more cutting edges, positive rake face, decreased cutting forces resulting in better performance.
