Hi guys,
just wondering if i could get some adivice on a profile milling job i have going on..
Material....2 1/4 inch thick 44W
Part size....25 inches in X by 10 inches in Y at its higest point
cutter....sandvick r290 3 flute carbide ...880 cutting speed with .005" chip load recomended
2nd cutter..2 flute r290 extended length
Problem lies in the fact the cutter i have only can cut up to 1 " deep. I have the parts doweled to flip so i can cut the bottom half. But i also have a longer cutter that i can get through the whole part if needed. But i am worried about deflection.
This is one of those jobs that the cutter gets burnt up or melted if i don't do this right. I don't feel comfortable just setting the speeds and feeds to the max and letting it go.
Any advice would be appriciated. I will answer all questions anyone might have 'cause i know i left something out somewhere.
