you could also try drilling a hole at the plunge point and start your endmill in that hole.

is your feedrate cut in half on the ramping? also are you running a rough and finish endmill, if so you can use an endmill a little smaller than the width of your slot and do a helical move down to...

I have never really had a problem with work hardening while milling, sometimes this can occur when drilling at to low a feedrate, but i'm sure if your running to high an rpm and a slow feedrate some...

Hey There,
not sure about your machine but I have cut plenty of 316 on a verticall mill and maybe I can give you a good starting point. With a hss endmill I would start between 70 to 100 sfpm. so...
