Iscar World app contains tooling information, allows order fulfillment

Iscar has launched Iscar World, an expanded app that encompasses all of the company’s online apps, interfaces, and product catalogues in a single space.

The app gives access to E-CAT; ISCAR 4.0Pro; E-Commerce, an online tool ordering system; a media channel; and Iscar Tool Advisor, an expert system for tool selecting, technical data, machining calculations, and FAQs that let users review, compare, check, and select tooling. The application constantly updates and expands its store of knowledge by collecting new data.

Smart manufacturing in the Industry 4.0 era features a combination of real and virtual worlds, based on network technologies, for every link of the manufacturing chain, including cutting tools. Advanced manufacturing systems require cutting tools to possess a rich world of relevant data as a necessary condition for incorporating the tool into their intelligent machining processes.
