APPENDIX

SETTING THE IMMERSION DEPTH

■ The immersion depth depends on the power of your spindle and

on the stiffness of your machine. In case of doubt: When you mill

deeper slots it is better to remove the material in several steps.

■ General guidelines for the relationship of immersion depth and

cutting edge diameter:

› rigid foam up to 5-fold diameter

› plastics (acrylic glass, etc.) up to 2-fold diameter

› aluminium up to 0.5-fold diameter

› steel up to 0.3-fold diameter

› stainless steel up to 0.2-fold diameter.

COOLING/LUBRICATION

■ The cooling with air or lubricant improves the surface quality and

prolongs the tool life. If cooling is not possible, the recommended

minimum values for rotational speed should be adhered to;

the feed rate, however, should not be set too slow. In this case,

the heat dissipation will be made by the chips, otherwise there is

a risk of excessive heat generation.

■ Recommended coolants/lubricants:

› Aluminium: spray lubricant ALU-N or minimum quantity

lubricant WSP 20 or Tec Liquid Pro

› Steel/stainless steel: emulsion of spray lubricant AquaTec® and

water or minimum quantity lubricant WSP 20 or Tec Liquid Pro

› Plastics/acrylic glass: dry processing with chip extraction or

cooling with compressed air.

WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF PROBLEMS?

■ Melting of plastics: Reduce the rotational speed and increase the

feed rate at the same time.

■ Plugged milling cutter: Reduce immersion depth and avoid heat

generation.

■ Burr formation: Increase the cooling or increase the feed rate and

reduce rotational speed and removal rate at the same time.

■ Tool breakage: Reduce the feed rate and/or the immersion

depth; check the collet chuck.

■ If your machine permits only lower rates of feed than it would be

possible according to tool and material data, you should reduce

feed rate and rotational speed accordingly.
