Lets Talk Toolpaths - High Efficiency vs High Feed

[@johannglaser]

That was interesting! Thanks a lot for the interesting explanation in the voice-over!

Gotta give it some ! If you are going to show high speed machining :) we rough and finish with Kennametal Kor V in aluminum, if you haven’t used them you’ll find you limit is going to be HP. Full depth of cut at 200ipm with 15% radial.

Nicely done. Thanks for sharing.

I find adaptive to be more suited to tall 2.5d roughing and high feed more suited to 3d roughing. As you said high feed is also valuable on long reach cutters because the shank is solid and the mostly vertical cutting force induces less flexure on the cutter.

Great content. Getting high speed adaptive toolpaths sorted out can be challenging but worth it. If you have the space, a high quality saw and a 2.5 axis mill like a Prototrak excel at operations like squaring up that heavy steel block. I have a Prototrak bed mill that supports out Haas DM-2. It’s a great cnc machine on its own and really makes fussy stuff like picking up features on an existing part for modifications easy. Also the incredible Z height is nice to have. I see a lot of shops that waste a significant amount of stock, time, and cutter life turning stock into chips that could have been sawed away in a fraction of the time.

Nice vid, can I have your thought on the kyocera vs dijet on price and tool life?

[@NerdlyCNC]

i havent tried the kyocera on the X7 yet

[@greenbuttonpusher_hc6453]

Adaptive, bottom up...is your friend in 5x...but you need a descent Y. One day.... Congrats with your 5x (Y)

I have the same kyroseca cutter, the 20mm and the 32mm, I rip P20 tool steel with it, its incredible, 4 edges per tip. 8000mmpm with 5 inserts.

[@jonjohnson102]

Cost?

[@max_eley]

@@jonjohnson102 Cant remember, ill have to check but the tool off the top of my head, its like, £80 for the body, and £6 tip.

[@kikolbo]

Doesn’t it guauge when rubbing the body of the endmill when you don’t have enough flute?

[@jonjohnson102]

How are your finishes and how accurate is it in p20?

[@alexanderjamesINC]

I don't understand. What is the actual rapid speeds of the Syil X7? In every video I see, the rapids are slow as heck. Does everyone just have their rapids turned down? It makes no sense when trying to show case a machine. Other people are just going to take it at face value and think the Syil X7 is slow.

[@NerdlyCNC]

30 meters per minute for the syntec control. I'm pretty sure Syil has a spec sheet on their website. Cheers, Jason

You might see via...official website ...for those machines....but ....this is not for high speed ....cheep price ...poor efficiency...indeed!
