Cutting Tools
SUMO
TURN
ISCAR is further expanding its line of ISO standard turning tools:
A.
New rough turning tools and inserts have been added:
● 80° rhombic inserts in 16, 19 and 25 mm cutting edge sizes and square inserts in 15, 19 and 25 mm cutting edge sizes. The new inserts are available in single- and double-sided configurations.
They are made from ISCAR’s most advanced SUMO TEC PVD and CVD grades.
● Two geometries, CNMG 190612-MR and CNMM 190616-MH in IC807 grade, were designed especially for machining stainless steel and high temperature alloys. These are initial items and there will be more in the near future.
● Two RCMX 25 and 32 mm round inserts, used mainly for railway wheel machining.
B.
The HELITURNLD family has been expanded by adding new trigon and DNMX inserts and a 16 mm CNMX insert.
The new inserts have very positive radial, helical cutting edges and positive rake angles - a combination which substantially reduces the cutting forces.
The CNMX and WNMX insert corners have a wiper configuration which produces high surface finish even at high feed conditions, which in many cases can eliminate a finishing cut. The corner angle is 88°, which provides increased strength.
HELITURNLD inserts were designed for heavy machining applications. Their unique design ensures reliable,
