MILL 4 FEED

FFQ4-12 Milling Family is Expanding


Highlights
Following its successful introduction in 2015 (NPA 55-2015) and the consequent market demand, ISCAR is expanding the tool and insert options of the FFQ4-12 Milling Family to include new tools and insert geometries.



The FFQ4-12 tools carry square single-sided inserts with 4 cutting edges, designed for reducing cutting forces when used on low power machines or long overhang applications.

The new FFQ4 D…-12 shell mill cutters feature a coarse-pitch option for 40 and 50 mm cutters and for 52 and 66 mm cutters, which extends the range of application options for roughing operations in the die & mold and aerospace industries, and in general engineering.

FFQ4 SOMT 125… Insert Features
  • Single-sided square insert with 4 cutting edges
  • Available with five cutting geometries for optimal machining of different materials:
    FFQ4 SOMT 12516T for steel, ferritic and martensitic stainless steel, cast iron and hardened steel

    FFQ4 SOMT 12516HP for austenitic stainless steel and high temperature alloys

    FFQ4 SOMT 120516T20 for grey and nodular cast iron

    FFQ4 SOMT 1205RM-T for interrupted cut and for machining near straight wall shoulders of steel, ferritic and martensitic stainless steel, cast iron and hardened steel

    FFQ4 SOMT 1205RM-HP for interrupted cut and for machining near straight wall shoulders of austenitic stainless steel and high temperature alloys

  • The FFQ4 inserts are produced from ISCAR’s latest SUMOTEC carbide grades, ensuring high productivity



FFQ4 D…-12 Tool Features
  • 9˚ cutting edge angle
  • Positive axial rake angle
  • Ramping down capability
  • 3.1 mm radius for programming
  • Fine pitch and coarse pitch cutter versions
  • Internal coolant holes directed to each cutting edge
  • Cutter body with a special protective polished coating for uninterrupted chip flow and protection from corrosion and wear

Cutting Recommendations for FFQ4-12 Fast Feed Face Mills
* ISCAR material group in accordance with VDI 3323 standard
** Quenched and tempered
For machining in unstable conditions, the recommended cutting data should be reduced by 20-30%.
