Hey guy's, I've got a large aluminum plate on the way which i intend to use as a drill fixture plate.i simply want to remove about .020 from the top surface to insure it is 100% square to spindle for a project i have to do. being a total newb i have been reading about speed/feed rates and get alot of mixed opinions.so what speed and feed should i run my 2" carbide indexable end mill at to get the smoothest finish possible?  |

| Hey balibalistic, You can use these calculators for speeds and feeds with the indexable endmill too. This article explains the formulas. These charts break it down. Looks like 1500 rpm @ 18 IPM if it's a 4 tooth endmill gives the recommended .003 chip load per tooth. Increase the rpm and you can increase the feedrate. Hoss
