Hi all,
We've got a cold air gun laying around and I'm wondering if I can use it when milling aluminum?
Could, or should....
I've also got coolant as well as a mister, but our CNC only goes up to 5,000 RPM so I'm wondering if the cold air gun along with a good nozzle to spray chips out could be a good alternative?
Tomorrow I'll be milling out an aluminum vacuum table using a 3/32 carbide endmill. Planning on 5,000 rpm @ 7.5 inches per minute at .093 inches deep.
Could I get by with cold air alone under these conditions?
