APMX2 GROOVING / CUTTING OFF Notes when wide face grooving by combination of plunging and traverse machining (2) z x c aWhen infeed machining at the bottom of deep groove, chips may interfere on the cutting edge near the center wall. In such cases, stop infeed machining just before the center wall (at a point less than the insert width) then remove the remaining material by plunging. Notes when copying (BM Breaker) F APMX2 aWith the BM breaker insert, 3 dimensional copying is possible. Set the depth of cut (APMX2) to 30% of the insert width. Finishing (1) aWhen finish cutting, machine continuously from the outer wall to the bottom of the groove, then finally plunge cut the center wall. Finishing (2) (BM Breaker) aCarry out finishing in one process. Insert APMX2 (inch) For the depth of cut (APMX2) when back turning, refer to the table on the right.
