Iscar Launches LOGIQ Product Line
Iscar has launched the LOGIQ family of cutting tools. These new tools are innovative products that maximize equipment utilization and optimize performance, the company states.
By listening to customer concerns and staying ahead of market developments, the company’s product managers, R&D engineers, and designers say they have developed highly effective and logical tools that meet today’s machining centre demands.
The new developments include new cutting geometries and locking mechanisms for stable, vibration-free machining with higher repeatability. The indexable inserts are equipped with new chipformers and feature geometries that facilitate soft cuts at high feed rates.
Solid-carbide tools have new designs that feature substantially increased anti-vibration strength – a key factor for boosting productivity in unfavorable cutting conditions.
The latest cemented carbide grades are products of the company’s core knowledge in powder metallurgy and coating technologies.
The toolholding line includes new heat-shrink-fit and vibration-dampening devices, which the company says significantly improve performance when tool rigidity is critical.
The new milling line includes strong, durable inserts and milling heads with enhanced capabilities.
New turning applications offer new means of decreasing machining loads, producing thinner and wider chips, resolving vibration issues, and improving coolant flow capabilities.
The drilling tool concepts provide new technology for high accuracy and repeatability, to reduce machine cycle time.
The new tool family includes LOGIQ3CAM for drilling; LOGIQ4TURN for general-duty turning operations; LOGIQ4FEED, which enables rough milling at high metal removal rates; LOGIQ8TANG, a new 90-degree square milling shoulder tool; LOGIQ5GRIP, a system for parting and grooving; and other tool families comprising hundreds of new products.
