Iscar's Deca IQ Thread Iscar's Deca IQ Thread Iscar

Product of the company’s R&D Department, Iscar’s new threading tools provide users with solutions that boost production, raise quality and provide substantial cost reduction benefits.

The DECA IQ Thread delivers the most economical, currently available, price per threading corner. As the product’s name implies, the tangentially clamped threading inserts feature 10 cutting edges – ie: a 16 mm round insert with 5 double-sided corners, providing a total of 10 cutting edges.

This newly developed geometry delivers by far the most economical price per threading corner when compared to the popular 3 cornered threading lay down insert.

The following thread profile sizes are available: 
TTG-16E-ISO - ISO – Metric
TTG-16E-UN - UN – Unified thread
TTG-16E-A55 - Partial 55° profile
TTG-16E-A60 - 60° profile

The Deca-IQ-Thread line provides a very precise geometry and accurate edge location repeatability when corner indexing.

The inserts are made from the grade IC908. Field trials and test reports indicate that the inserts also provide much extended tool life when compared to similar products. diameter are commonly used to complete roughing operations within contours where a tool diameter of 50 mm (2.0”) is too large.

The result of the above milling figures under extreme conditions considerably increases the productivity and performance of high-speed, modern machines when compared Due to the large size of many aerospace parts and their multiple pockets, milling operations normally involve the removal of over 90 percent of the original workpieces’ material.

The tools that carry the new inserts feature coolant channels that are designed to deliver standard and highpressure coolant. Four-corner indexing can be performed by only a partial opening of the lamping screw, resulting in a short and easy indexing action and efficient, time saving operation. When the requirement is for threading operations at very high parameters, the PENTA IQ Threading line combines the benefits of a very rigid clamping system and a strong, five edged insert design. The full profile inserts are available in the following thread standards: ISO, UN, Whitworth and BSPT. Partial profile inserts are available in 60º (MT) and 55º (WT) profiles.

The multi-corner,five cutting edged insert provides an advantageous price per cutting edge.

PENTACUT threading inserts offer a combination of a very rigid clamping system and a strong inser t design. These inserts can be used for threading between walls and close to the tail stock of the machining center, enabling a complete part production in bar feeder machines.

PENTACUT’s chipformers produce short and easily exposed chips and result in accuracy and surface quality of the part. In addition, the ability to perform easy and fast indexing from either side of the holder enables inserts to be changed quickly in case of breakage. Also, the inserts can be rotated on their axis to enable operation to be continued with another cutting corner.

The inserts are produced from the PVD coated grade IC908 and can be mounted on standard PENTA 24 tools.

CUT-GRIP TIP inserts with a flat top rake (without a chipbreaker) are precision ground for a 60° (MT) thread profile. The TIP inserts were designed for machining threads on short chipping materials, such as brass and cast iron. The use of flat top rake inserts on these materials result in improved surface quality and less chatter, when compared to the use of inserts with chipbreakers. As a result, cutting speeds can be increased and further efficiencies gained.

The TIP inserts are available in partial profiles such as:
MT - Metric threads 60°
WT - Whitworth threads 55°.
The TIP full profile inserts include: ISO, UN, BSW, NPT and BSPT standards.

The TIP inserts can be clamped in Iscar’s existing standard toolholders. The tolerance range and repeatability of the cutting edge is ±0.025mm.
