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.
