Need to quote some milling of this stuff, never heard of it before, and good ole google tells me its nickel based superalloy, so any of yall cut this fun stuff?

 

Thanks

I know I've milled it before, but I have no memory how it behaved.

This could be a false-repressed memory, but I remember it flaking.

we cut it every day. mostly from cast blade segments. 50-90 sfm and buy a lot of carbide. when we can we 5 axis grind it, or creep feed grind.

ceramic facemills work really well for roughing

agreed.....tho I have found that using toolpaths like dynamic or optirough/volumill/adaptive clearing (all in the same boat) one can do some serious damage in a short amount of time. Treat it like you would inconel and you are in the ballpark
