Iscar tech talk - iscar heli-4-mill for extra small diameter milling

ISCAR expands the HELI-4-MILL product line by adding single-sided square inserts in different corner radii for extra small diameter milling. The new HELI-4-MILL line features: SOMT 0402 PNTR with 0.8 and 1.2mm corner radii SOMT 0402-FF with IC808 grade Endmill cutters with a cutting diameter size of 6 and 8mm The SOMT 0402…PNTR with 4 neutral cutting edges is a utility insert for milling square shoulders and is available in 0.8 and 1.2mm corner radii. The insert features positive axial rake that reduces cutting forces and provides a maximum 3.5mm depth of cut (DOC). The new endmill cutters are now available in 6 and 8mm. They are designed for machining compact and miniature parts such as light-size components for die and molds, medical devices, aircraft equipment, etc. The small dimensions of the cutters make them ideally suited for turn-milling on multitasking machine tools with limited working space. The endmill cutters are suitable for mounting single-sided HELI-4-MILL SOMT and SOCT-04 inserts of both 2 types: for general use and fast feed milling. The cutters can be used for milling square shoulders, slots, plunging, and for efficient rough machining with high feed per tooth. Cutter Features Each cutter can mount single-sided square and fast feed milling inserts. Pinpointed coolant flow directed to each cutting edge. Protective coating on the tool’s surface improves wear and corrosion resistance. Applications Machining main engineering materials such as steel, cast iron, stainless steel and difficult-to-cut HTSA (ISO P, M, K, S and H application groups). Milling shoulders, slots, side plunging, plane and 3D surfaces. Manufacturing small-size parts. The new cutters and inserts will provide customers with a complete solution for milling with better process control. The new HELI-4-MILL tools and inserts are designed to provide an economical option for a wide range of roughing and finishing operations. HELI-4-MILL small diameter milling cutters can successfully replace solid carbide endmills. They facilitate application flexibility and reduce stock and procurement costs.
