Iscar recently released a variety of different drilling innovations to meet their customers needs. These most recent products are Sumocham Drill, DR-DH and Deep Drills. Drawing off of their expertise Iscar has come up with new and innovative ways to increase productivity for the end user. Here is a little bit about these innovative products, and how they will benefit the end user of these products.

SUMOCHAM Drills

ISCAR's new SUMOCHAM drill family is an advanced development of the highly outstanding CHAMDRILL and CHAMDRILLJET drill families. The drill features twisted coolant nozzles with indexable drilling heads which are available in different head configurations for a variety of material groups. SUMOCHAM drills can be used on milling centers or lathes.

SUMOCHAM features four different standard drill head geometries, designed for unmatchable performance and high reliability. The drill head is made with a sharp cutting edge and polished flutes. SUMOCHAM drilling heads are available in the diameter range of 8 to 25.9 mm. The drill head has ground flutes for smooth, uninterrupted chip flow and a ground gash for enhanced penetration.

The drill shank design is in accordance to DIN 9766 standard, with obtainable drilling depth to diameter ratios of 1.5XD, 3xD, 5XD and 8xD. All drill bodies showcase coolant through holes. The accurate cylinder added to the clamping portion improves rigidity and reduces internal stresses. The rotation stopper planes are accurately ground, which improve the control on the drilling head position and support, increasing tool performance and life. ISCAR's innovative SUMOCHAM drill line will allow for longer tool life and greater productivity.

DR-DH Deep Drills

DR-DH drills can acquire drilling depth-to-diameter ratio of 7XD and up. Constructed to be used on standard horizontal milling centers, turning, and multi-task machines. Use of supplementary machine and setup can be avoided. They will be available as semi-standard product in a diameter range of 25.4 to 69.5 mm (1.00 - 2.73").

Two versions will be available:
A Single Flute DR-DH-31.65-0350NC-2FS is a very rigid tool with a patented chip gullet design. It was engineered for easily cut materials comparable to cast iron and low alloyed steel.

A Double Flute DR-DH-31.65-0350NC-2FD has a double chip gullet for better chip flow. It was tailored for drilling gummy materials such as non-alloyed steel and high temperature alloys.

ISCAR DEEP HOLE DRILLS

With ISCAR's new solid carbide deep hole drills, you can safely drill up to 22 times diameter and arrive bottom10% faster than with other solid carbide drills - and six times faster than a HSS drill. This capability can speed up many high-volume operations. The deep-hole drilling station no longer has to slow down a transfer line or stop it exclusively because a drill broke.

Different target applications include deep holes for automotive, hydraulic blocks and die & mold work. A combination of features help the twist drills to cut faster, straighter,deeper, last longer and discharge chips more surely. A special high-strength core creates a more enduring drill point and allows for deeper flutes, enlarging the departure path for chips.

The drill tip themselves have a 140 positive-point, four-margin design to preserve the edge, reduce thrust forces and assist centering and tracking. A post-coat polishing measure on the flutes, margins and cutting edges reduces friction and torque that can easily snap a drill.

The brand new drills are found in normal diameters ranging from 5 to 10 mm, in 20 and 22 length to diameter ratios. Special sizes are attainable on request. All are made of IC908, a 10% cobalt submicron carbide grade, and comes with a TiAlN PVD coating, and can be reconditioned.

These are just some of the latest innovations coming from Iscar.

Iscar Recently Made Public Many Brand New Lines To Extend Their Family Of Milling Cutters
Iscar recently released a new family of High Speed Milling adjustable endmills and facemills that will improve milling of aluminum, non-metallics, cast iron and hardened steel. This should prove especially useful in the automotive and aerospace industries.

Iscar Offers A Brand New Family Of Slitting Cutters Applying Tang-Grip Technology And The Strength Of Sumo Tec Grades
Iscar now offers a family of high-performance slitting tools that combine the convenience and security of Tang-Grip clamping with the added durability of the new Sumo Tec insert grades. The concept, already proven successful in Tang-Grip parting tools, has now been extended to slitting cutters.

Push Pull Testing For Railway Industry With Calibrated Measuring Instruments. Stress Load Testing Methods For On Site Documentation To Testing Standards.
Push Pull Testing for the Railway industry for proof of reliable anchor fixings. Calibrated push pull force gauges are used for stress load testing along with tensile strength pull testing procedures. Proof of load testing undertaken, measured, recorded in a reliable and standard way to BS5080 Part 1 standards.

Some Improvements Have Extended Iscar's Families Of Indexable Endmills For Expanded Productivity
Helido-Upfeed 04 Two years ago Iscar introduced the extremely efficient H600 indexable endmill line, based on conceptually new Helido-Upfeed double sided inserts with 6 cutting edges. The first insert launched was the H600 WXCU 0806..., which was designed for milling cutters in the diameter range of 50 to 125 mm.

Completely New Tools And Carbide Insert Shapes From Iscar To Better Enhance The Machining Process
Iscar is introducing Penta 34 carbide inserts with a new PB chipformer. The PB chipformer features a single cavity with a positive rake, neutral shoulder angle, and a honed edge. It is actually a C-type chipformer with a different frontal edge.

A Handful Of Improvements In Carbide Inserts Due To Iscar Across The Last Decade
Iscar is announcing a brand new unique milling system that includes tangential, clamped, butterfly-shaped LNKX carbide inserts. The butterfly-shaped insert has meaningful advantages compared to the current flat, square shapes. The new geometry has more cutting edges, positive rake face, decreased cutting forces resulting in better performance.

Determining The Best Commercial Water Heater For You Needs
If you are in the market for a commercial water heater then consider what the needed application is and your overall cost to determine which is best for you. Since there are so many to choose from you may have to do some calculating in order to match the need.
