Product catalog summary
Introduction
ISCAR has introduced new inserts for DR-TWIST drills featuring an HD chipbreaker, designed to improve drilling performance in low carbon steel and soft materials. The primary challenge in machining these materials is managing long, curly chips that can jam the drill and affect hole quality. The HD chipbreaker addresses this by producing short, easily evacuated chips.

Specifications
The HD chipbreaker is available on SOMX and SOMT inserts with four cutting edges, designated with the suffix HD (e.g., SOMX 070305-HD). It features a higher deflector compared to DT and GF chipbreakers, enhancing chipbreaking capabilities.

Features
  • Excellent chipbreaking on soft materials
  • High surface quality
  • Accurate hole diameter
These features result in fewer interruptions and longer tool life, making the HD chipbreaker ideal for drilling soft materials.

Performance Comparison
Graphs in the document compare the performance of the HD chipbreaker against DT and GF chipbreakers, showing superior roughness and diameter enlargement metrics when using the HD chipbreaker.

Inserts and Dimensions
The document lists various SOMT and SOMX inserts with their respective dimensions, suitable for carbon steel and soft materials.

Machining Data
Data is provided for different cutting speeds and feed rates for low carbon steel, with specific recommendations for various drill diameters and material conditions.

Conclusion
The new HD chipbreaker offers significant improvements in drilling low carbon steel, providing better chip management, surface quality, and tool longevity.

HOLE MAKING Highlights ISCAR is launching new inserts for the DR-TWIST drills with a new HD chipbreaker, providing an outstanding solution for drilling low carbon steel and soft materials. It is well-known that the main challenge of machining low carbon steel is to avoid long curly chips that might jam in the drill’s gullets and damage the tool which may poorly affect hole quality and interrupt the drilling process. The new chipformer overcomes that phenomena by cutting the material into short chips which are easily evacuated along the flutes. The new chipbreaker was implemented on SOMX 05, 06,...
