Hi, Thank you for your interest. Yes this was for a customer that required a 4th-axis to make gun stocks. If you email us at www.kelbrandcnc.co.za/contact, we can send you a PDF brochure and pricing.

I just sent you guys a message through your web page and in the message I referred to this videos work without mentioning that I was just watching your video. I apologize for the confusion it might have caused 😂

@@davidevans5601 Hi, no problem - thank you for your interest.

Thank you, we are using and are OEM distributors of Vectric Aspire.

Hi, You can find out more information on the machines we manufacture here from our website - www.kelbrandcnc.co.za/

Hi, thank you for your insight and suggestion. We have also found that cutters with more flutes give a better surface finish in plastics like HDPE. In this example we were using a single-flute cutter which is better for chip removal and less prone to melting but does not give the best surface finish.

Thank you, appreciate it - been looking forward to the moment!

Hi, this was only a demonstration part in Nylon.

Hi, in this instance we used our vacuum hold-down system.

Hi, Aluminium on our standard series and machined steel gantry on our heavy series.

Thank you for sharing this information.

Thank you for the comment, If only this was our machine to give.

Hi, We used feed override for most of the toolpath but were initially cutting at 25mm/sec feed.

Hi Jean, thank you for the kind comment.

Hi, Much appreciated for sharing this information. Yes we have looked into these settings in the past - this was a demonstration on a customers unit with our standard configuration and the g-code was outputted using a standard post processor from Vectric Aspire.

Hi We are licensed exporters in South Africa and can ship to the US, feel free to contact us for a quote.

Hi, Thank you for the kind comment. We don't usually - we have retrofitted our ATC and control systems on milling machines(ZX45) in the past. Our early machines used mach 3 but we have since moved on.

Hi, Thank you for your comment. We normally use some cutting fluid through a misting system but have got away with just using air on the tool in the past. Cutting fluid or at least air on the cutter is definitely recommend for cutting aluminium and other soft metals.

Hi, Thank you for sharing these tips!

Hi, thank you for your feedback. We use and are OEM distributers of Vectric Aspire, which has excellent nesting capabilities but did not feel the need to use in this application since we have alot of HDPE sheet offcuts and prefer all the parts to be in the same orientation.

EVA foam

Hi, This material is a high density fiber board. The part we were cutting was a surfboard fin which would normally be made from a G10 composite. The purpose of the video was mainly to demonstrate the 2-sided cutting capabilities of our machines.

@@kelbrandcamAll machines are capable of double sided milling if you flip your work piece around for the second side. Here are two videos of how I am working on all six sides of a work piece, not only two. ruclips.net/video/p2BCw1ORcxQ/видео.htmlsi=LBGR-XwC07OyrQDc ruclips.net/video/SXpbHDGDVZw/видео.htmlsi=We8790yXof-z2akH In those video I am drilling holes with several dimensions, milling with several cutting tools and also engraving fine text as well as very narrow tracks. Anyway, I would advise you to fix a better dust extraction system for that fine dust you are making. That dust is really nasty and your vac takes care of only a tiny fraction.

@@AdaptingCamera Hi, Thank you for your feedback. We do offer spindle dust brackets with a 100mm hose adapter for our units, however having the tool enclosed with bristles does not make for a very interesting video. We also put a portable filtered extraction unit behind the camera.

Looks like valcromat/forescolor. basically a type of mdf, bur higher density and with through color and better moisture resistance.

@@kelbrandcam How much does the device cost?

Hi, Thank you - We used an industrial strength double-sided tape.

Hi, there are many variables in machining aluminium (Machine setup, tooling and aluminium grade). Every user scenario is different - we normally start with the slowest feed and lowest DOC and increase these values incrementally until our result is desirable. Air and cutting fluid on the cutting tool is highly recommended. Keep on testing and you will get better results, best of luck.

Hi Thank you for the comment. We're no experts with rotary cutting strategies so the use of the endmill was mainly because we use this approach when flat milling HDPE and aluminium. The endmills we use are designed for material removal so they might be more effective for this application. We've seen that our ballnose cutters seem to rub more than cut when roughing. If the your ballnose cutter can handle the roughing process I see no reason why not.

@@kelbrandcam Thank you for your explanation. The fact is i never even used a flat end mill for this, i will definitely try it on my next project to see the difference.

+/- 0.06mm-0.08mm. Our controllers also utilize backlash compensation. This 1.3M x 2.7m unit is also available in a C7 ballscrew driven system.

Hi, I'm glad our videos are helpful. Many good results are from trial and error - We've found that lesser flutes don't clog up as much but using a double flute gives a better surface finish compared to a single flute if you are pocketing.

Thanks, my main issue has just been the plastic pieces melting... I end up with a blob of molten plastic swinging around the bottom of the bit, messing up the surface of the piece.@@kelbrandcam

You can try slowing down your spindle RPM and increasing the feed, the cutter could be spinning faster than it can cut.@@starhawke380

@@kelbrandcam that's my thought too, im just afraid of overdriving the machine, its so flimsy... the 3018 is fun, but not strong... ive broken a couple bits so far testing feed speeds.

Hi, thank you for your feedback. Many of our enquiries come from customers either wanting an affordable milling machine but not quite ready to take the plunge into a full VMC setup or do not have the space for a large machine. This machine is priced for affordability and is more than capable of making accurate parts.
