Back in the early 2000s, the introduction of ISCAR’s MULTI-MASTER system of rotating tools with interchangeable carbide heads played a significant role in the development of cutting tools. Tool assemblies with exchangeable heads were known long before ISCAR’s MULTI-MASTER. This was a product that changed the traditional view of the design concept of such systems. Within the MULTI-MASTER product line, heads are secured by using a thread connection. Cemented carbide is a very hard and wear-resistant material and has lower impact strength when compared to high-speed steel. In a threaded carbide part, the thread is a source of stress concentrators…
