Iscar Adds Their Latest Creations To A Lengthy Line Of Successful Hole Generating Solutions


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

SUMOCHAM Drills

ISCAR's new SUMOCHAM drill family is an advanced evolution of the tremendously thriving 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 incorporates four different standard drill head geometries, designed for optimal performance and high dependability. The drill head is built with a sharp cutting edge and polished flutes. SUMOCHAM drilling heads are offered in the diameter range of 8 to 25.9 mm. The drill head has ground flutes for smooth, continuous chip flow and a ground gash for enhanced penetration.

The drill shank design is according 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 increases durability and decreases internal stresses. The rotation stopper planes are precision ground, which increase 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 accomplish drilling depth-to-diameter ratio of 7XD and up. Constructed to be implemented on standard horizontal milling centers, turning, and multi-task machines. Use of additional machine and setup can be avoided. They will be obtainable 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 having a patented chip gullet design. It was tailored for easily cut materials like 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 designed for drilling gummy materials like non-alloyed steel and high temperature alloys.

ISCAR DEEP HOLE DRILLS

With ISCAR's new solid carbide deep hole drills, you can easily 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 ability can speed up several high-volume operations. The deep-hole drilling station no longer needs to slow down a transfer line or stop it entirely because a drill breaks.

Different target applications encompass deep holes for automotive, hydraulic blocks and die & mold work. A mixture of features aid the twist drills to cut faster, straighter,deeper, last longer and expel chips more surely. A special high-strength core creates a more long lasting 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 maintain the edge, reduce thrust forces and assist centering and tracking. A post-coat polishing step on the flutes, margins and cutting edges decreases friction and torque that can readily snap a drill.

The new drills are available in standard diameters ranging from 5 to 10 mm, in 20 and 22 length to diameter ratios. Special sizes are offered on request. All are built 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.
