Extension of the HELISLOT line with tools for high shoulder milling
ISCAR is expanding the HELISLOT LINE by introducing new 90° Extended Flute Cutters carrying the XNMU 13 double-sided inserts
SM-XN13
Extended flute shell mill in 63 and 80 mm diameters
XNK-XN13
Extended flute endmill in 50 mm diameter
The new cutters are intended for high metal removal rate rough milling, mainly on steel and cast iron components.
Main Features
- Up to 0.3×D width of cut
- Up to 69 mm depth of cut
- Wall mismatch up to 0.1 mm
- Efficient coolant holes directed to each cutting edge
- Hard Touch coating of the cutter body facilitates chip flow and protects from corrosion and wear
- High performance under various machining conditions and in interrupted cutting
Applications
Rough milling of deep shoulders and high edges, mainly on steel and cast iron workpieces
Advantages
- The insert’s leading-edge geometry greatly contributes to smooth and easy cutting, thus reducing cutting forces and power consumption
- Eight effective cutting edges provide a highly economical solution regarding price per insert edge
- Foolproof inserts mounted in the pockets of the cutters
- The consecutive inserts, along the cutter’s flute, produce contra-directional axial rake angles which result in balanced axial forces during machining, thus enabling more stable cutting and significantly reduced spindle loading and movement
- Axial support of the insert in the pocket produces no obstruction for high-rate chip evacuation
