Snapmaker 2.0 milling Aluminum

[@robertburns2415]

Try a smaller diameter tool 6 mm or quarter inch diameter tool is just too large. Also try ordering some single flute cutters. 3 mm or smaller. Also using your primary or first cutter use a ball end mill (this will reduce the amount of resistance and your primary cut)then go in with a sharp corner end mill.

the depth shld be like 0.1mm that way the bit can cut aluminum away with the available power and structure of the snapmaker. Sure the time to do the job will go up but have to identify the sweet spot for depth. As far as loose structure is concerned see if there are loose screws and tighten it.

Wie siehts denn aus mit dem neuestem Modell ? Hat hier jemand schon mal Gelegenheit gehabt so etwas zu testen ? Der Artisan ist ja deutlich stabiler unterwegs. Ich würd ja aber hab das Gerät noch nicht geliefert bekommen, bestellt Weihnachten letztes Jahr.

Habe ähnliches festgestellt. Alu kann man schrubben, aber bohren und ordentlich Material abtragen geht nicht. Das Linearmodul sollte eigentlich nie so viel Schwingung von der Spindel sehen - ob die Spindel zu leicht oder schlecht gelagert ist?

I believe that the spindle bearings will not last long if work with aluminum. I working of some adjustment, stay tuned

Nice video shot, thanks, keep it up :)

[@coalakida]

Is there anyway you could brace if from behind and still alow it to move , that for me would be the work around . ??

Sehr Interessant! Ich habe mir allerdings extra alu Fräser besorgt. Die haben nur eine Schneide und sind extrem scharf. Dazu noch einen kleineren Durchmesser.Bin zum Testen allerdings noch nicht gekommen. Hab von dem Hersteller einen Fräser für Plexi und der Unterschied zum Universalwerkzeug war erheblich. Zur Zeit hab ich eine Proxxon Fräse montiert die mit 20000 Umin ein wenig mehr Leistung hat und gerade in Holz mehr Zustellung ermöglicht. Letzten Endes ist aber halt nur ein Bastelwerkzeug.

I think not that a single flute will give better results it should even more vibrate then this what I used. I use the 65HRC grade that is the hardest material and should work for everything how ever in the moment I not found a smaller one. I am working on some adjustments and will make a new video with my findings in some weeks.

[@DisCubanPeteBro]

what bits are you using?

[@GES1985]

I wonder if you can use the new rotary module and do this

[@KiranKiran-yp1vl]

Did you tried with external spindle??

[@tarvo390]

3MM flat end tool will work perfect 3mm carbide 2 flute endmill

[@Love2FlyKAP]

The real issue is the rigidity of the CNC router. You will never get rid of the chatter.

[@foam27]

use 3mm 3fl carbide endmill, depth of cut .127mm, feedrate 2000mm/min. 90% alcohol mist spray. Your welcome.

[@andydeslauriers8317]

How loud is it?

[@diegosahagun2950]

What kind of bit you used?

[@MREV-Solar]

D6 50L 4T 63`

[@jeffreyritter2147]

Ur also climb milling, try conventional milling meaning ur cutting backwards in simple turms. Also try making ur set up more rigid

[@MREV-Solar]

Thanks for the tips!

[@yayser]

Your took tip diameter seems to be too large, use something like 2-3mm and use a single flute cutter.

I have da German accent, jawohl!

[@Edward3DFX]

Kinda not awesome- pass on the snapmaker

Besser auf Deutsch, da bluten einem ja die Ohren.
