have to hog out steel with a face grooving tool capable of 1.2 inch depth .. The lathe is 25 hp and the groove is around 5 inch to 3 inch from center on a 6.5 inch part diameter..
I do machine some stainless from time to time but have not done too much steel on this lathe and am looking for some tips on what folks do to for tool paths and feeds speeds as well as a good tool brand tips for this sort of thing.. Will have to make a bunch of these and have some money for tooling on this job..
any recommends on this type of thing i would really appreciate..
thank you
