Iskar's loading knives enhance the processing of railway locomotive refurbished wheels

Iskar introduces innovative turning tools to improve the processing reliability of difficult-to-machine railway wheels. The first-line feedback from the user shows that tool life is increased by 66%-250% when machining hardened alloy steel road locomotive wheels. Even if the machining can damage the damaged area of ​​the tool, the turning tool is fully capable of processing tasks. Moreover, the turning tool has high controllability to the chips and produces uniform small chips.


Iscar railway wheel turning tools, because of their vertical design, can better withstand heavy loads. The blade clamping direction is perpendicular to the cutting force direction such that it carries the main cutting force in the thickest cross section. This also significantly reduces the risk of sudden breakage of the cutting edge of the blade and avoids the occasional downtime. Combined with a strong shank, the tool as a whole exhibits greater rigidity and reliability.


The tool can still maintain a high life even when roughing the damaged surface to a depth of 12 mm. The cutting edge is gradually worn out in a normal manner, and its cutting life is predictable, not broken. This also reduces the number of times the operator replaces the blade.


The Iscar railway wheel cutter series is currently a tool holder type. With this series of turning tools, it can cope with the processing of the wheels of mainstream railway machines, and both can achieve the task of one pass to complete the machining. No need for complex tool setting, the new tool can directly replace traditional tools. Each shank is designed to hold two blades, and the blade clamping position is uniquely designed to complete the processing of each contoured part in one pass task.

Currently, four alloy grades are available to meet a variety of processing conditions, including roughing of rough surface wheels and dimensionally demanding finishing. The blade is designed with a large positive rake angle WR and WM coil groove, which can effectively obtain short chips and avoid the generation of long winding chips, and the short chips take away a lot of heat to ensure the processing process and the cutting heat is lower. The edge of the machine wheel is used to effectively break long chips. For finishing with stable processing conditions, it is recommended to use IC8150/IC9150 inserts; for semi-finishing and finishing with unstable processing conditions, it is recommended to select IC8250, IC9250 graded inserts.


On Rafamet's non-falling lathe, the Iscar ISOTURN vertical turning tool was replaced, and the number of workpieces per blade was increased from 40 to 72, with a 100% increase in feed rate. On the Hegenscheidt non-falling lathe, the upper Iss truck knife was replaced. Under the same processing conditions, the number of workpieces per blade was increased from 12 to 30 pieces.
