CHAMIQDRILL

March 03, 2016

The ISCAR Chameleon line is back and it’s bigger with a diameter range from 1.3”-1.57”. The new innovative CHAMIQDRILL employs a new insert positioning and locking mechanism that eliminates the need for clamps or screws commonly found on drills for larger diameters. This design allows for easy indexing on the machine to reduce setup. 

The cutting edge geometry provides a mechanically efficient cutting action, reducing power consumption, noise and increasing material-removal rates. The new generation clamping mechanism ensures insert security and long body life.  Hole straightness and finish is excellent due to the self-centering cutting point, according to the company.

Profitability from machining a part is dependent on the machine type, cutting tool, cutting conditions and the interaction between them. ITA (ISCAR Tool Advisor) is a user-friendly, web-based tool selection software that is constructed upon a unique mathematical algorithm.

Iscar Metals Inc. has expanded its popular HELIDO milling cutter family to optimize facemilling, especially for cast iron. The new HELIDO S865 FSN mill has a 65<sup>o</sup> lead angle to minimize burr formation and edge breakout, which can complicate cast iron applications.

Iscar Metals Inc. says its 11mm profiling insert does the job of a bigger one, thus enabling finer-pitch cutters for smoother profiling and lower chip loads.

Iscar Metals Inc. says it has improved its line of CUT-GRIP and HELI-GRIP groove/turn tools with a new CVD-coated substrate that doubles tool life while raising productivity by 15 percent.

Iscar Metals Inc. offers a family of reinforced TANG-GRIP blades for the INDEX Model MS18C and TRAUB TNL and TNK mill/turn machines.
