In response to the need for reducing machined
part costs as an essential part of overall
production cost economization, ISCAR
developed a new generation of advanced
cutting tools to optimize manufacturing
processes and reduce cycle times, without
compromising on quality or durability.
These tools may appear to be more expensive,
but they deliver significant savings. Although
cutting tools represent only 2-4% of total
production costs, they have a massive effect
on the overall efficiency of a process.
The use of today’s minimally more expensive,
innovative tools that deliver longer life, ensure
faster cycle times and guarantee the continued
quality of machined parts, makes solid
economic sense.
The application of increased cutting speeds,
in addition to the use of custom solutions
(combination tools) that enable multiple steps
to be combined into one, results in significantly
reduced cycle times.
