    HSM Advisor Question

    Happy Thanksgiving! My question relates to HSM Advisor and the recommended feed rate generated. I've attached a screen shot showing my inputs and the generated outputs. My question first then some background information. Is the recommended feed rate of 51.71 IPM too high for a 1/4" end mill with the DOC and WOC I've input? I could try it to find out but I really don't want to break a $30 cutter.

    My mill is not a Tormach. It's a PM-932 converted to CNC. It's driven by a 2 HP VFD driven motor that has a max RPM of 8500. Axis motors are larger capacity than a Tormach so it has the power to make the cut. I've changed the Tormach profile to reflect the max RPM capability of my mill. I also use flood coolant.
