Love seeing this stuff. Last week I had to take a 6061 flat bar 13.25x2x1.25 n contour to 13x1.5 n keep the thickness. Did a full depth contour n the 1st pass did a .250 cut at full depth of 1.25 on a 3/4 3 flute endmill. Man it was amazing how it was spitting chips n the old school 1994 vf4 didn’t even hesitate. So I kept the toolpath the same n saved me 2mins in the op
What toolpath strategy are you using? Is it all optirough, with dynamic mill for pocketing? Also what holder are you using? Loving the uptick in content lately!
Awesome. Just found this channel, it looks amazing. I'm listening to the video and it strikes me ... it almost sounds like a deep string instrument like a violin, cello, bass, etc. I'm right around 1:43. Higher pitch, then lower, etc. Could almost title the video "the music of CNC machining". Maybe contact Deadmau5 to mix it into something unique and awesome? :D
Any recommendations for Big Plus endmill holders? We just got a Hurco with a Big Plus spindle, but I'm having trouble pin pointing the actual holder to take advantage.
Titan has agreement with Kennametal, so they will suggest you only this brand. Kennametal is a good company, but I believe Haimer and Big Kaiser are step above.
I see you're using the zigzag cut pattern in optirough just wondering if you have any reduction on feedrate while conventional milling and if so is there a rule of thumb you go by to know how much to reduce it to avoid excessive chatter?
Probably 95% faster The alluminum will stick to the endmill pretty soon With coolant you can run an endmill like this for days or weeks or months depending on your strategy
@@owievisie That's bit of an overstatement. Maybe a week tops. Endmills degrade, and their reliability goes down fast. Your speeds and feeds were just fine before, and suddenly the endmill snaps.
really looking forward to the ball finishing strategies on the part.
When you take all that material from 1 side, and also finish it before you flip it over, how do you prevent warping?
It's not casted alluminum right?
I would have definitely roughed both sides before I finished anything

Is there a CAD instruction video on this part? Im searching the website and YT and cant find anything?
Soo smooth 😍😍....
Will be waiting for finish machining vedio

Have you noted the tool wear difference with climb vs zig zag? Or is tool life not important here just tool performance what it can do?
Very nice video and very interested in the finishing comparison video.
Getting after it! Boom
Are you running no coolant just to show the performance? Would you normally run coolant I wonder

It’s aluminum so it’s the same speed… we do not reduce because that would make chatter worse by not having pressure.
Gonna have to flip that thing like 4 times to keep it from warping.
that sounds like a frickin harmonica
Agree, sounds terrible
Why no dual contact tools
When the 2nd part?
About Turn!!
Stock to big cutter to small and 3 flute mini-cut best for alloy.
How does machining without cooling affects tools? How fast are they destroyed?
Probably 95% faster
The alluminum will stick to the endmill pretty soon

Good sir very powerful software Master cam
I've seen vague handwaving about how HSM allows the creation of much thinner-walled structures, but never any real discussion of how this works.
I know the clearance is clearly there, but not selecting the holder is sloppy in my opinion. Bad habits are hard to get rid of
能不能能上中文字幕
Who knew cnc machining and bad violin playing sounded the same.
Three fourths............interesting
Just a stupid observation from an old boomer toolmaker lol
Keep up the great videos!
Who says that?
seems kinda slow, especially for roughing, unless it's just for the academy demonstration
Trust me thats not slow
music
The question is:
How.much money make a programmer on that level 🤔🤔🤔
Sounds wrong. It so weird.
