Note 1) Please note that machining performance varies depending to the conditions such as machine rigidity, work clamping rigidity, coolant supply system, pressure and flow volume etc. Note 2) Internal coolant is recommended. Please use an FMH type arbor for through coolant. Using external coolant in combination with through coolant is even more effective. Note 3) The tool life ratio shows the standard when ae = tool diameter × 20% is assumed to be 100 when shoulder cutting. Note 4) The maximum depth of cut (apmax) varies according to the machine rigidity and power.
