The chip load per individual 'flue piece' is quite a bit lower for the corncob style end mill, so because the material is being removed in small bites instead of one big swoop the chip load is a lot more balanced which automatically results in less deflection which leads to a better and more consistent surface finish. At least that is my theory :D

@mastermaker6663 жыл бұрын
With the removed areas of cutting edge the surface area contact and corresponding force, deflection and vibration is basically halved for each flute so that is the main likely cause of the better finish. However the rigidity of a 2 flute cutter and the pattern of movement means it will have 2 points of maximum deflection during one revolution as opposed to one point with a single flute, which is also a likely factor involved in the improved finish since the distance between each point of maximum deviation on the cut surface will be halved as well, and this is obviously helped by the halved force with the halved cutting edge length for each flute.
@BreakingTaps3 жыл бұрын
Hmm yeah that makes sense. I was contemplating the reduced tool force but wasn't confident enough to say it out loud... and didn't think about the 2-flute nature of the tool at all. Despite cutting like a single flute, it's basically a two flute so stiffer/meatier. Makes sense it would also deflect a lot less (and have different resonances too, maybe even balanced better). Interesting! I probably haven't ever used a nice serrated tool either... now that I think about it, pretty sure I've only tried cheap roughers. That might have prejudiced me a bit too heh
@jbwalker8413 жыл бұрын
I see you are using inches per minute for your feed. So if you run a single flute at 100ipm, you need to run a two flute at 200ipm to make it equal. Feed that two flute at 200ipm and I bet you will see a similar surface finish on the cut. The feed per tooth needs to be equal to properly compare surface finish (also, don't conventional cut on CNC, there are very few situations where you would want to do that since surface finish and tool life are always reduced).
@Robinlarsson833 жыл бұрын
@@jbwalker841 But the rougher isnt actually a 2 flute tool. Its 2 flute with half of each flute cut away, so at any point of the tool there is only a single cutting edge. It is a 1 flute tool with a 2 flute body, so the chipload must be the same as a normal 1 flute. Except that it produces shorter chips, but that isnt part of the normal feeds and speeds formulas afaik.

Cool video! What kind of camera would one need to make these kind of slow motions? Have you tried slot cutting with the cutter as well? Would be curious to see how chip evacuation is from a relatively deep narrow slot. From what I gathered one of the differences between climb and conventional cutting is, besides less recutting of chips, the deflection of the end mill with climb milling is more in line with the cut direction, whereas conventional puts transverse forces on the end mill, hence climb will give better dimensional accuracy (and surface finish) Also the cut/chip starts thin with conventional and increases during the cut, this gives more rubbing and tool wear/heat where climb starts 'thick' and thins out, so no rubbing.

Maybe even acting a little bit like a variable-flute, breaking up resonances? And the single flute _does_ have a very "long" cut, so maybe it was starting to chatter just a little bit? I wonder if there is some way I could quantify that... I didn't see any movement in the high speed, but I also didn't look very closely.

It is indeed a vacuum chamber, think it was originally an old 60's vintage e-beam deposition chamber (seems to have some "DIY" ion pumps, air-cooled jacket, HV feedthrough, all ports are conflat). It's not currently operational, I need to machine a top-plate and an adapter for my diffusion pump... but it's so cold in the shop I'll probably procrastinate on that until the Spring. Have some vague plans to try out laser pulse deposition, and maybe dabble with some micro-thruster designs (ion thrusters, micro-cavity discharge). The original original plan was for sputtering but I ended up finding a killer deal on a SEM coater not long ago :) Until then, it's gets to be a pretty blue prop in the videos 😀

At one point, I got so tired of rebuilding diffusion pumps that had seen atmosphere that when I transitioned to a new job, I didn’t let on that I knew anything at all about high vacuum 😆. In my retirement though, I kinda miss it a little; it’s been many, many years; decades TBH, but part of me would enjoy seeing conflats, ion pumps and an ion gauge again :-) Ultra-high vacuum always appealed to the extremophile in me; 1x10^-8 torr was an achievable but challenging goal :-) Best wishes and good luck with your system, I hope we’ll get to see a vid someday on what you do with it 👍😁

@jbwalker8413 жыл бұрын
If you cut with the same speeds, feeds and depth of cut then the finish will definitely different. You would have to double the feed rate for the two flute endmill to make things equal because the feed per tooth is what matters. The chip splitter may affect the finish too on less rigid setups because it reduces the chip size which effectively reduces the torque required for the cut and should reduce deflection. But the feedrate will have a bigger impact. One flute and say .01" linear advance per revolution of the tool equals .005" advance per tooth per revolution of the tool with two flutes. So therefore the frequency of tooth engagement is double which reduces scallop size . Smaller scallop size equals smoother finish (unless you end up causing chatter, but that's a different discussion). Make sense?
