Note 2) Air blowing and oil mist are recommended as coolants. Note 3) Note the following points when using the tools. • Avoid using equipment abruptly without proper preparation. After sufficiently energizing equipment, ensure that there will be no changes to the depth of cut such as due to elongation of the main axis during machining. • If the tools are used immediately after rough machining of a surface, large uneven areas (cusp heights) will cause deflection of the tools and waviness of the machined surface. Therefore, it is recommended to add a medium finish machining process which uses the same value of ae as indicated in the table above. Note 4) % is the inclination angle of the machined surface.
