Cutting Tools

TANG
ISCAR is introducing a new family of milling tools that uses tangentially clamped inserts with two helical cutting edges.
The new T290 inserts are available in cutting edge lengths of 5,
10 and 15 mm.
The
T290 LNMT ... PN-N
inserts are the next evolution of ISCAR’s most popular HELIMILL inserts. Due to their tangential orientation in the pocket, the new inserts enable tool design with larger core diameters than tools with regular, radially oriented inserts.
The inserts feature a soft and clean cut due to their helical cutting edges and positive rake angles.
They are available in the most advanced SUMO TEC carbide grades.
These tools feature high durability and outstanding tool life (due to the tangential orientation of the inserts in their pockets and higher tooth density), when compared to the current HELIMILL and HELIPLUS tools. The T290 tools may run at higher table feeds, producing excellent surface finish and no mismatch.
In the first stage, ISCAR will introduce the following T290 tool range:

The
T290 E90LN
endmills can be used for machining 90° shoulders at high rates, with no mismatch and are capable of plunging as well. All of the tools have coolant holes.
