Hi everyone
I now have my CNC mill up and running, working great! 2.5kw so enough power, atleast 2000mm / min so plenty of speed!
A lot of the aluminium machine I've see dosen't use cutting lube, how come if I try and run without lube the cutter gets jambed up with swaf?
Is it the quality of the tooling?
Is it spindle speed?
or is it cutting speed?
I have noticed the videos I've seen are very hi speed cutting... Maybe I need to reduce the deepth of the cut and speed up the travel...
What do you think??
Thanks
