Can someone give me advise how to mill a cavity like half of a bowl.
8.00 dia and 4.00" deep.
Material: 4140- kind of hard stuff.
I don't have much experience in profiling. using MasterCamX. level-2.
I was thinking to rough it out using 1" carbide insert endmill, then rough profile with 5/8 car, ballnose, and finish with 1/2' ballnose.
Question:
Do I use flowline for roughing and finishing ?
how much material leave for finishing and the value of the stepover?
Any other suggestionare appreciated.
thanks.
