Iscar has introduced the Tang4Feed family of high feed shell mill cutters for oil and gas applications.
Carrying tangentially clamped rhombic inserts with four cutting edges, Tang4Feed cutters are designed for milling rough/semi-finish and sculptured surfaces, in diameters ranging from 40 to 100 mm, with up to 1.5 mm depth of cut. These features provide a good ramp down and side plunging capability with excellent chip flow and a high metal removal rate, due to a small entrance angle that enables high table feed at shallow depth of cut and materials that are machined on oil and gas exploration equipment.
