Tapered Circle Segment Barrel Endmills Milling Strategies Machining strategies play an important function in the performance of the tool as well as extending tool life. For large surfaces always use the main barrel radius. Use the largest diameter possible to utilize surface speed and chip space. Change the contact point along the cutting edge as often as possible to spread wear and prolong tool life. Use a combination of passes to clean ridges. Climb milling is advised to ensure optimal tool life and surface finish. Small corner features can be finished with the radius tip of the barrel. For...

High Temperature Alloys Feed (mm/min) Titanium Alloys Feed (mm/min) Feed (mm/min) Feed (mm/min) Feed (mm/min) Feed (mm/min) This coating demonstrates a superior combination of hardness and adhesion in hard machining of molds and dies and machining high-alloy stainless steels for high temperature applications such as turbines. The smooth surface ensures optimum surface quality and decreases the temperature in the cutting zone by reducing friction. This ceramic-based coating ensures a smooth surface and a low affinity to cold welding or edge build up, which makes it optimal for aluminium and copper...
