Iscar Offers A Revolutionary Line Of Slitting Cutters Using Tang-Grip Technology And The Durability Of Sumo Tec Grades

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

The concept, 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 accompanied by a special hand tool, and are clutched firmly in place without the need without requiring clamps, upper jaws or set screws that can weaken the insert and impede chip flow. The pocket design uses cutting forces to keep the insert seated firmly in position, eliminating any prospect of insert pull-out. The Tang-Grip clamping system also fosters more accurate slitting cuts plus longer pocket and insert lifespan.

Iscar's Sumo Tec insert grades feature a special post-coating treatment which considerably improves tool life and dependability.

Introduced in late 2007, the brand new Sumo Tec treatment smooths the insert's coated surface to dispose of microscopic stress raisers, reduce heat and friction and improve chip flow. The result is improved toughness and resistance to chipping and built-up edge, all leading to greater 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, permitting higher feed rates.

Their greater 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. Several 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, providing excellent 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, providing additional toughness for heavier parting and grooving including interrupted cuts. It is fitting for all stainless steel & high temperature alloys.

IC908, a hard, fine-grain substrate with excellent 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 additionally recommended for interrupted cuts and heavy operations.

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

A Few Of Advancements In Carbide Inserts By 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.

Push Pull Testing For Building Industry Supplying Calibrated Measuring Instruments. Stress Load Testing Methods For On Site Documentation To Testing Demands.
Push Pull Testing for the Railway industry for proof of reliable anchor fixings. Calibrated push pull force gauges are used for stress load testing along with tensile strength pull testing procedures. Proof of load testing undertaken, measured, recorded in a reliable and standard way to BS5080 Part 1 standards.

New End Mills From Iscar Can Multiply Productivity While Decreasing 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.
