In its latest “LOGIQ”

campaign, ISCAR introduced

four new Fast Feed tool
families and upgraded several

existing lines

The fast feed milling method has since undergone
some interesting changes. Originally considered as
an effective way for rough machining cavities and
pockets that was typical for die and mold making,
FMR soon proved advantageous in face milling
(“fast feed facing” or “triple F”). The diameter range
of the FF milling cutters was increased and the
group of engineering materials suitable for cutting
by the FMR method, expanded. Steel and cast iron
may be known as the main “consumers” of fast
feed milling, but stainless steel, titanium, and even
high temperature superalloys can be successfully
machined by the method as well. This in turn led
tool manufacturers to introduce a variety of fast feed
milling cutters in different forms. Indexable or solid in
concept, they can have shank or arbor type design
configurations, integral or modular body structures,
and cutting geometry that varies according to the
machined material group.
