ISCAR TECH-TALK - ISCAR's Modular System for The Back Tool-Post on Swiss-Type Machines

In the world of machining, there is a new modular system designed to provide a versatile solution for the back tool-post on Swiss-Type machines. This system offers a range of features and advantages for turning, threading, and drilling applications.

The modular system includes different bases, which are available in various shank diameters to accommodate different Swiss-Type machine interfaces. These bases serve as the foundation for the system and provide stability during machining operations.

To extend the overhang and allow for coolant options, spacers of different thicknesses ranging from 10mm up to 30mm are available. This ensures efficient chip evacuation and cooling through the base, contributing to improved tool life.

The holder in the system is suitable for size 10 and 12 square shanks, providing compatibility with a wide range of inserts. Additionally, there is a collet type holder available for ER11 and ER16 collet sizes, offering versatility in clamping options.

The modular system offers a large variety of heads for different insert types, with both short and long head overhangs. This allows for flexibility in tool selection and ensures optimal performance based on specific machining requirements.

One of the notable features of the system is its height adjustment option. Within a range of ±0.4mm, users can adjust the tool height to achieve precise machining results.

The tools in the system are designed to be stable and reliable, thanks to the serration design on all components. This design enhances tool rigidity and minimizes vibrations during machining processes, ensuring high-quality results.

The system is compatible with ISO standard inserts, as well as other unique geometries developed by ISCAR. This expands the range of insert options available to users, providing flexibility in tooling selection.

All tools in the system are designed with coolant nozzles directed to the cutting edge. This feature enhances tool life by improving cooling lubrication and chip evacuation, ensuring efficient and reliable machining operations.

With the introduction of this new modular system, ISCAR expands its tooling variety dedicated to Swiss machining applications of small parts. The system offers versatility, stability, and adjustability, making it a valuable solution for a wide range of turning, threading, and drilling needs. Machinists can rely on this system to achieve precise and efficient results in their Swiss-Type machines.
