ISCAR recently introduced new cutters that carry tangentially clamped inserts with 8 right-hand cutting edges, intended for face and shoulder milling. They are suitable for a wide range of workpiece materials including different types of steel, stainless steel and cast iron and are designed for roughing and finishing operations in the automotive, die and mould industries and for general engineering.
The T890HT cutters feature 90° cutting edge angle and a rigid dovetail clamping configuration. Coolant channels are directed to each cutting edge, while polished coating of the cutter body facilitates chip flow and protects against corrosion and wear.
The tools include T890HT ELN endmills in 32 and 40 mm diameters with cylindrical and Weldon shanks and T890HT FLN Face mills in 40, 50, 63, 80, 100 and 125 mm diameters with coarse and fine pitch. The endmills and face mills are for machining square shoulders, slots and face milling.
The following inserts are produced from ISCAR’s latest SUMO TEC carbide grades, which significantly increase productivity:
- T890 LNHT 1306PNTR, a four-sided tangentially clamped insert for general use, featuring 8 right-hand cutting edges, 0.8 mm corner radii and a 9.5 mm maximum depth of cut.
- T890 LNAT 1306PN-W, a wiper insert with 4 cutting edges for finishing operations, 0.6 mm x 45 deg. chamfer and a wiper for high surface quality.
