CUTTING DATA RECOMMENDATIONS

Uddeholm Corrax

Machining data are always dependent on the actual operation, the machine tool and the cutting data used. The machining data given is this datasheet are general guidelines that may have to be adjusted to the actual conditions of a specific machining operation.

Remarks:
1. Use a milling cutter with a positive-negative or positive-positive geometry. 2. Climb milling should generally be used. 3. Milling should generally be done with coolant.

Remarks:
1. Climb milling should generally be used. 2. Choose the cutter diameter (D) and the radial depth of cut (a e) so that at least two cutting edges are engaged simultaneously. 3. If the machine tool power is inadequate for the data given reduce the depth of cut, but do not reduce the feed.

Correction factor for side milling


Divide the cutter diameter with the radial depth of cut. See in the chart below which correction factor, C f, this corresponds to, and multiply the chosen feed in the table for slot milling with this factor. 5 Example: Tool: CC insert Cutter diameter: D = 40 mm 3 Radial depth of cut: ae = 2 mm D/ae = 40/2 = 20 Feed acc. to table slot milling = 0.11 mm/tooth Correction factor acc. to chart: C f = 2.8 0 10 20 30 40 50 Feed for side milling: f z = 2.8 x 0.11 = 0.31 mm/tooth

Correction factor, Cf

Cutter diameter / Radial depth of cut, D/ae

Remarks: (slot and side milling)


1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Climb milling is generally recommended. Use a cutter with chipbreaker when side milling with radial depths of cut, a e > 0.3 xD. When side milling with small radial depths of cut (a e) the cutting speed can be increased by up to 15%. Use liberal amounts of cutting fluid. It is recommended to use a TiCN coated cutter when milling with solid cemented carbide tools. The axial depth of cut should not exceed the cutter diameter when slot milling. 6. Climb milling is generally recommended. 7. When side milling with small radial depths of cut (a e) the cutting speed can be increased by up to 30%. 8. The radial run-out, at the cutting edges, must be small and not exceed 0.03 mm.

Remarks:
1. The cutting fluid should be ample and directed at the tool. 2. When drilling with short "NC drills" the feed may be increased by up to 20%. For extra long drills the feed must be decreased. 3. Use insert grades in the range of ISO P20-P30. Under unstable conditions a tougher carbide grade should be used for the centre position. 4. Use a high cutting fluid pressure and flow rate for a good chip removal. 5. If machining with solid or brazed cemented carbide drills, a rigid set-up and stable working conditions are required. 6. The use of drills with internal cooling channels is recommended. 7. Use a cutting fluid concentration of 15-20 %.

Tapping with HSS


Cutting speed, vc = 7-9 m/min

Remarks:
1. Threading compound or cutting oil gives a longer tool life than emulsion.
