Aerospace guyz needed

[ricky_fire]

Hey guyz !

 

Give me some parameters for Titanium & HRSA work materials

Aerospace buddies are u around?

[EX-wccprogrammer]

I have done a fair share of titanium and inconel... What kind of parameters?

[ricky_fire]

I am talking feeds,speeds,DOC for Solid Carbide endmills & Ballnose

[pno]

You ask about aerospace material...

You now some equivalent for AMS 6265K with heat tratement and 35-40HRC?

In witch group of material from SECO it is?

[ricky_fire]

Ya >40HRC

 

In which group of material from SECO it is ? I wouldn't know

[EX-wccprogrammer]

I wish there was a simple answer for that... Unfortunately there is not. With materials like this, a lot of factors come into play. You need to take into account part geometry (thin walls? deep pockets? narrow grooves? etc.), cutter geometry (stub length? 5X diameter clearance? etc.), fixturing, machine rigidity.... The list goes on.

 

The figures for bare carbide in the Machinery Handbook are a good starting place, but assume no factors such as those listed above. They are for a rigid tool in a stable part. Such is the case for any tool parameter table, assessing the exact parameters needed for your parts will be an estimation at first, based on the conditions, then fine tuning as you run.

 

High end tooling (Z-Carb, etc.) will always perform better in rigid environments. However, you will notice very little difference from uncoated tooling in situations without satisfactory rigidity, due to vibration and the strength of carbide.

 

The bottom line is this: Your parameters will have to be established on-site, by someone who can fully evaluate the situation.

Thanks wccprog

 

That will certainly help me to some extent

[ricky_fire]

Hey wccprogrammer !

 

This ones for u

 

Do u grind your solids in house where the flute ends ie on the shank area to avoid the tool rubbing into the job profile while 5 axing or do u get it tailor made to ur specifications from ur neighbourhood tool supplier

[EX-wccprogrammer]

I try to use standard tooling wherever possible. Relieving a shank when needed is no problem. I do have a slotting cutter that is custom made for us at about $200 each. But the performance of those blow the doors off of everything else out there...

 

BTW, I have done complex 5axis in the past, but not involved currently. I like the little bit of hair I have left....

[ricky_fire]

Thanks wccprog

 

Hope I am not the reason for u losing ur last strand of Hair

 

Just joking buddy dont take it to heart

I usually use 40m/min - 0.1mm/flute with seco tools for general machining (face/rough contour toolpath).

[TheePres]

I use Hanita Wav-cut II for roughing, pricey but works great. Then monster carbide for finish at 175 SFM. Hanita Wav-Cut II

[ricky_fire]

This name 'Hanita' sounds very familiar.

I have seen this name on something other than cutting tools

Does Hanita also manufacture Push Back seats for Trains. I remember seeing this name on the back of a

Train seat from Mumbai to Goa

[cadist]

U travel alot on that way. Don't u?

[ricky_fire]

Yes cadist

 

ya baby u hit the nail on the head

 

[TheePres]

Hanita, I believe, comes from Israel.
