A question for the people who run using ADKT/ADCR inserts.

I have quite a few ISCAR inserted holders (1.00/1.25/2.00 dias) that take ADKT/ADCR inserts.

I have some of the inserts with PDFR geometry on the way. I usually run small quantities of parts, so optimizing mat'l removal is generaly not critical. I have a new job where it is critical to get the job done in time.

What speeds/feeds/depth of cuts work well? I have a Fadal 4020 with the 30hp VHT motor so not likely to run out of horsepower, probably run out of rigidity first.

I've been running around 1000sfm, .005ipt and .10 doc with ADKT IC328 inserts (optimized for steel/stainless steel) machining aluminum. If I believe the Iscar site I should be up around 2000sfm for aluminum.

Thanks in a advance for any help you can provide.
