New Chipformer for Miniature Parts
- October 25, 2014
- Product Release
- Management
Iscar has expanded the available chipformers for its line of Penta 24 inserts by adding the P-type chipformer to the existing Penta 24N-PF inserts. This new insert is suitable for parting and grooving soft materials and miniature parts.
This insert also is suitable for parts with thin walls and general parting applications.
The new P-type inserts feature a more positive rake angle, smaller radii, and no edge honing when compared with the existing PF type. Neutral frontal-edged inserts can be used for grooving and parting applications, while the right-hand, 6-degree and 15-degree inclined frontal-edged inserts can be used only for parting when a reduced central burr is required.
The inserts are made from the company’s IC1008 PVD-coated grade, which can be used for numerous workpiece materials.
The inserts are available with widths of 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 mm.
