    milling aluminium

    Hello, i must evaluate cutting time for this operation ... mill has 3 teeth.

    If i would cut into steel, i would go 1500±300 rpm , 0.08 .. 0.12 mm/o

    How should i go into aluminium ? i have never milled aluminium ... so, just increase rpm 3..4 times ? please, i need some advice

    kindly !
