ISCAR MINCUT Inserts

ISCAR MINCUT Inserts Designed to Improve Small-Scale Face Grooving

“ISCAR now offers a family of small face grooving and turning tools that stand up to high machining rates in applications prone to high tool failure rates,” said a spokesperson. “New MINCUT MIFR…8 inserts and tools incorporate a unique design (patent pending) and clamping system that prolongs tool life. The inserts are screw clamped very rigidly into a long pocket in the toolbar.

“The new inserts and toolbars cover the diameter range from 8 mm to 17 mm (.315-inch to .669-inch) and grooving depths up to 5.5 mm (.216-inch). With this new size range, together with their PICCO and CHAMGROOVE tools, ISCAR now offers the most complete line of face grooving tools for diameters from 6 mm.

“As a result of its unique geometry and internal coolant delivery, the MINCUT grooving tool delivers uninterrupted chip flow that can be safely used for grooving in deep holes. It can also handle rotating applications, functioning like a single point trepanning tool.”

Inserts, in hard, fine-grain grade IC 908 for high chipping resistance, are available in widths from 1.5 mm to 2.2 mm (060-inch to .087-inch).

Sandvik GC4225

GC4225 – the next generation of high-performing first choice insert for general steel turning

GC4225 from Sandvik Coromant represents the next generation of P25 grades to enhance machining performance in the general steel turning area.

Over the past few years, Sandvik Coromant has carried out extensive R&D to establish the new P25 grade, GC4225, which is the next insert generation to make the general steel-turning area even broader, more productive and more reliable.

A multi-talented insert grade for steel turning

In general steel turning everything varies. The steel material varies from un-alloyed to high-alloyed bar-material through to various forgings and castings. The type of operation varies from rough to finish turning with conditions ranging from good to difficult.

GC4225 has an improved capacity to adapt to variations in workpiece material and operational demands towards the tougher end of applications, thus providing more versatility. The new black and yellow grade provides a new potential for increasing productivity through higher cutting data, backed up by improved reliability.
