Thread: Milling Machine Low Speed Torque

Hi Peter,  a HSS cutter on FCMS shoud beable to cut at 100 feet per minute, wich for a 3"dia is about 135 rpm. this may help however if you can get brazed TC you could cut at as much as10 times this speed.  A brazed TC cutter can be sharpened just like a HSS one, however a green grinder weel is helpfull.
Regards,
Peter.

I have a small lath-mill combination mathine with wich I fly cut a 4.5" dia. at 390 rpm. The cutter tool is a 0.5"dia rod with a TC saw blade tip brased to it.  Very light cuts need to be taken (0.25mm max).
