Help! What is the best way to mill this part.
Hello,
I am a beginner with milling so any help is welcomed.
I need to make some round moulds in a steel stock.
I have an old machine with limited memory capacity and that is why I am using 2d pocket strategies to do the roughing.
My stepdown is 1 mm, I dont dare to use more.
My issue is that it takes to long to machine the parts.
Also another big problem is that the tip of my end mills gets destroyed very often.
So my question is. What is the best strategy to open these pockets?
Someone suggested to do a pre drill hole. But I dont see how this helps.
