Note 1) Helical grooving is strongly recommended for machining of tempered steel. Note 2) When using the G1-breaker wiht coated grades VP15TF, MP6120 or MP9120, reduce the feed rate by 20%. Note 3) For more information on "No.", please refer to page L201 for cutting speed.

y For Ramping

L

3°

a When machining steel the recommended ramping

angle is 3°. If a ramping angle larger than 3° is used,

then the chips may not be broken effectively resulting

in chips wrapping around the tool.

a When ramping, it is recommended to reduce the feed

rate by 40%.
