That's what i like to see. Milling with confidence. I my self mill with confidence. Confidence that when i press cycle start i am quick to get my thum hovering over the feed hold button 😏👍.
great to see real good machine work there ,, i like your feed and speed ,, especially drill can take a lot of feed , i don't know why people always have to run 15000rmp with an 8mm drill and make that horrible sound. it's like driving a car, you don't get there any faster at twice the speed ,,
I slowed it down to make the video without coolant, some of the tools weren’t made for aluminum, I ended up changing the .625 mill out for a proper one and ran it at 8,000 rpm and 400 IPM
The nc code is good, now with all the people who know better out of the way. 400IPM you can do or choice to do 30% rough cutting. And get better Metal remove rate. Inserts drill you can push more but with feed and speed that are recommended by the manifactor. Peckdrillings looks good. If you find recept that works with Hss and cobalt you push push it more next time. Goodluck!
I’m afraid that’s all rather slow. With respect you need to get better tooling and get the machine to do some work. It’s aluminium not stainless. I run a manufacturing facility, 45 years as an engineer and worked in many sub contract machine shops as well as OEM’s. Thats really slow even if it’s a small batch part. That swarf should be coming off as a stream of chips hitting the machine guards. Cut it, don’t tickle it….
You’re an old time manual machinist. I mean to no disrespect. I was once a manual machinist. 4 years. I can close my eyes n hear ur RPM is not at its max. Use a solid holders for any milling u do. only use in a collet n run true when u want to hold something tight. Use 1/16 ball em to engrave n feed it at least F50. With a look ahead
Your right I slowed it down to make the video without coolant, I had to use a sharp engraving tool for the engraving per the customer or I would have used a 1/16 ball mill.

Feed hold? Brother I’m on that reset

Jesus. I could knock off at least 50% off that cycle. You're cutting aluminum! In a Doosan! Run that damn thing! It'll do it.
He might be limited by rpm
@@alexbike01He’s running at 7500 revs. It’s technique that matters, even at slow revs you can get better than that.

I like to use Weldon holders, For aluminium with coolant holes that are at a 60degrees angle so it will hit the flutes.
Super cool. Not sure what that part is for, but I'm sure I can find a place to mount it on my Quad! lol
dang loctite retaining compound the secret for crispy burr free engraving! noted 😂😂 joking aside, nice process! enjoyed watching.
Pocket Mill 40 with alu inserts .
500 m/min 6 deep and 5 millimeter cuts fz 0.5
Shouldn't need to peck with that insert drill, you have TSC.
look closer he does, drilling past the flutes.
Yes exactly I added the peck so I could make the video and I did drill past the flutes so I still kept the peck at the bottom of the hole.
Nice but get some good toolholders for your roughing cutters then you can send it without worrying about pulling out the endmill. My 2 cents
Double your speed and feed on the insert drill and plunge straight in without pecking.
What pil did You use on the engraving
Tragedy in programming, position sorting, pecking for indexable drill with through coolant etc.
Easily this job could be done in 1/2 of the time.
why did you choose such slow Feeds and Speeds in Aluminium?? you could go waaaaaay faster...
I only slowed it down to try to get better video.

Spot drill in Aluminium? Why...whats that? You waste time non sense. Hmmm...overall end mill in 4 flutes rough and finish...mmmm
