Hi all, I'm quoting a part out of Invar 36, (36% Nickel, the rest iron) and am wondering what this material is like to run on a swiss. the part isn't too complicated, just some turning and a blind hole tap. (M2 size...)
I've done a little research, and from what I've read it machines pretty close to 304 stainless, is this true? It seems like with all that nickel it's be a huge PITA..though if I can get 321 to machine nice, i feel like i can do anything, haha!!
any thoughts and insight would be much appreciated.
thanks!
