Hello Everyone,
I have a question about milling ABS material. Does anyone know the feed rates, speed, and depth of cut that should be taken with a 0.031" end mill (square) in ABS. I need to make a lot of small features in a key fob case that I am milling out. I have set up all the operations in Camworks already but the cuts that I have taken so far are really shallow so I don't break the end mill. I just wanted to see if anyone would know what depth and the speed and feeds to use to cut with this material.
Tooling Info:
I have 0.031" HSS 2&4 flute mills
spindle can reach speeds of 6,000 rpm
feed rates up to 40 ipm
Here are some pics of a key fob case similar to the one that I am attempting to mill out.
Thanks!
