ISCAR's slitting cutters feature a prismatic-wedged clamping system which has changed the industry's standard. Each cutting insert is manually positioned between the flexible jaws of a SELF-GRIP pocket - no screws or spare parts are required.
The combination of a stopper that limits the insertion of the insert and the flexible jaws precisely and securely position each insert.
Indexing is both easy and fast. A simple lever extractor is used to remove the insert and a plastic hammer aids in indexing. The entire indexing process is possible without removing the cutter from the machine. This eliminates the need to re-position the cutter, resulting in minimal down-time.
