The LOGIQ factor
ISCAR has recently introduced a new range of small HELI3MILL Application
size indexable rotating tools under its LOGIQ range,
featuring cutters with a nominal diameter of up to
20 mm (.75"). The new families of indexable milling
cutters within the diameter range of 8-16 mm
(.315-.625") attract the most interest and possess
several common features: the cutters carry triangular-
shape inserts with 3 cutting edges and the mechanical
part that secures the inserts is represented by a screw.
These families are intended for milling square shoulder
or fast feed (high feed) milling. But here the similarity
ends, and the difference begins.
MICRO3FEED Application
While the design of the HELI3MILL and
MICRO3FEED families for tool diameter 10-16 mm
(.375-.625") secures the insert by clamping the
screw through the central hole of an insert, the
NANMILL and NANFEED families for tool diameter
8-10 mm (.315-.394") adopt a different concept, as
a central clamping screw is not feasible within such
a small diameter range.
According to the new concept, the screw is located
above the insert, and the screw head plays the role
of a wedge. This approach provides reliable and
rigid clamping, ensures a durable homogeneous
insert structure with no hole, and allows insert
indexing to be quick and simple.
NANMILL Application
It is predicted that these new families will be
particularly effective in manufacturing compact
parts and in machining small-size cavities,
pockets and small parts utilized in industrial
sectors such as die and mold making, as well
as in producing miniature components.
