Hello friends,
I primarily mill AR450/AR500 on my two old manual Cincinnati mills (vertical and horizontal). Huge amounts of material removal (100lbs per workpiece at times) using indexed EMs and facemills. So far the best I've used is Kennametal MP91 grade inserts but I'm looking for superior options if anyone has any. I've really enjoyed Iscar's 908 grade as well but they only come in the smaller 1003 size.
Much appreciated for any advice and experience!
EDIT: I'd also entertain other insert designs if they are really exceptional for my application, I just have a lot of apkt cutters
