Guide for pecking

Depth of pecking X Refer to max. cutting depth (Pd) shown in the lower table of previous page. (Pd Shows the maximum plunge depth.) When traversing after pecking 1. Reduce the table feed by 50% until the center core part (do not forget to grind) is completely cut off. (The internal cutting edge's radial rake angle is large in the negative direction)

2. The min. cutting length “X” for flat bottom surface is as follows. Center core DC

Guide for ramping (Slant milling) L

  • Ramping angle should be RMPX (Maximum ramping angle) or under in the above cutting conditions.
  • Feed rate should be 70% or under of the
