HI

we have used diejet insert ball end mills for

a long time with our 3d die work.

i really like them,

they take a lot of abuse

Hi,Robby !

A lot of thanks!

Do you work according to the recomendations or

higher - lower?

Can you give some examples for HRc52-55 ?

Can you compare them with Iscar or Seco ?

[mikhael gutman]

Hello plsttav!

In my opinion Iscar has best offer for tool and die makinig needs

Hi ,Mikhael !

 

How are you doing?

 

Regarding Iscar they have really good tools.

But comparing them with Seco they can not work with such feeds like them.

The Iscar representative came to me once and said :

I ready to compete with any SECO tool you have.

So I showed him my seco inserted tool 35 dia with 3 round inserts 12 mm .

I do with it mostly roughing on my Deckel -Maho DMC63V (which is weak machine IMHO )with 2500 rounds 7500mm min taking cut of 0.7 every time (pocketing} cooling with air.

The tool`s length with a holder 120 mm a holder tapered from30 to 38 mm

Well he give me the tool wich was far shorter but anyway he couldn`t even stand the feed of 5000 mm /min.

What I found that DIJEt is far cheeper than SECO here but the feeds in catalog are no worse then SECO !

That`s why I am asking about them.

[Robby GM]

we machine mainly die's

most of what we are cutting is D2

I rouch with 3 to 5 mm step downs and 3 mm set

overs. usually at 2600 to 2800 rpm

and 50 inchs a minute.

the diejet take to abuss will

but are nosie

I tried dijet yesterday :

Bull nose dia 16 mm 2 round inserts 7 mm dia JC5003 insert grade on Molrex HRC 53

 

S8000 rpm f2800 mm/min doWnstep 0.3 mm sidestep 6 mm ,coolant -air .

It was real high speed machining : tool is cold ,part is cold ,40 min for work of 2-3 hours and inserts are as new - SUPERCOOL !!!

Seco and Iscar far too slower .

I DECIDED TO MILL HARDENED STEELS ONLY WITH DIJET .

And they are not expenSive tools .

 

Iskander looking for new ideas

Last friday i had a visit of the dutch DIJET dealer. He told they are super on hardened steel,

special the MDH types.

No cure no pay he said.

Nice to see others have good expirience

For hardened tool steel I like Dapra. I used a 1" ball insert and cut at 3000rpm & 75.0 ipm .010 deep of cut. I had tried Dijet and thought Dapra held up much longer.
