Flexible Cylinder Honing- The Future In Honing Tool Technology

BRM is constantly discovering new and interesting applications for our products. Since the late 1950's, we have been in the business of manufacturing tools...but we are also in the business of creating solutions. We pride ourselves in doing the research to solve our customers problems. Harder and more durable materials encouraged us to look into new abrasive types. The new Diamond Flex-Hone allows us to finish materials that were once quite challenging. We have begun to see how specialty Flex-Hones are beneficial to the industrial and aerospace industries. We have found that diamond and other abrasive types create incredible results. Are you interested in learning about Flex-Hone's Future in Finishing? Brush Research has written a brief whitepaper that talks about some interesting and new applications. Educating our distributors and customers about our products has become a company focus.

ISCAR Introduces Adjustable Milling Cutters

“A new family of High Speed Milling (HSM) adjustable endmills and facemills from ISCAR improve milling of aluminum, non-metallics, cast iron and hardened steel, especially in automotive and aerospace applications,” said a company spokesperson.

“The dynamically balanced cutters are specifically designed to work with polycrystalline diamond (PCD) or cubic boron nitride (CBN) inserts, protecting their edges and delivering outstanding surface finishes,” the spokesperson said. “They also accommodate standard HSM-rated HELIDO 2000 carbide inserts.

“In both the endmills and facemills, internal coolant holes ensure a cooler cutting face while improving chip evacuation and resistance to built-up edge.

“Insert pockets in the cutters feature a flexible rear stopper, which can be adjusted by a slanted screw, enabling axial positioning of the cutting edge within 0.002 mm (.00008 inches).

“Endmills, designated E90AD, are available with HSK A63 shanks in four diameters from 25 to 50 mm (1 to 2 inches). Facemills, designated F90AD, cover the 50 to 80 mm (2 to 3 inches) diameter range, also in four sizes.

“When used with HELIDO carbide inserts, the adjustable HSM cutters deliver extremely smooth cutting action with low cutting forces. HELIDO inserts’ helical cutting edges gently enter the work a bit at a time, like scissors slicing into paper, to reduce impact loads at the cutting face.”
