The Importance Of Effective Cutting Speed Since the table feed depends on the speed at a certain cutting speed, if the effective speed is not calculated, the table feed will be calculated incorrectly. If the tool’s nominal diameter value (Dc) is used in calculating the cutting speed, the effective or actual cutting speed is much…
Milling Cutter Positioning The cutting length is affected by the position of the milling cutter. Tool life is often related to the length of cutting that the cutting edge must bear. The milling cutter positioned in the center of the workpiece has a short cutting length. If the milling cutter is offset from the center…
Use Of Down Milling And Up Milling The main recommendation is to use as much milling as possible. When the cutting edge is just cutting, the chip thickness can reach its maximum value in the down-cut milling. In the case of up-cut milling, it is the minimum value. In general, tool life in up-cut milling…
