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. MINCUT MIFR includes eight inserts and tools that incorporate a unique design and clamping system that prolongs tool life, the company says. The inserts are screw clamped into a long pocket in the toolbar.

The new inserts and toolbars cover the diameter range from 8mm to 17mm (0.315" to 0.669") and grooving depths up to 5.5mm (0.216").

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 1.5mm to 2.2mm (0.060" to 0.087").

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 6mm.
