Perhaps my settings, but couldn't download the video.
That sounds like a pretty healthy cut for an endmill that small.
I have a minicut 1" dia. high polish aluminum roughing endmill (interupted cut) that I like to use. Cuts like butter. I can take a 1/2" stepover and 1" d.o.c. with an rpm of about 1800 and feedrates of about 200 ipm. Does that seem good? I don't use a lot of endmills, so I like to learn more from other people. Most of my cnc machining is 3d using indexible high polished carbide cutters.
Anyway, back to your original post. I must have misunderstood your query. I will go back and read it, I apologize for not being more thorough.
ScottBob, I too have heard of Numerix from my Fadal service guy......who I see quite often :/. We did look into it about 5 years ago, I think. Their quote was $35,000 to install the controller and have all of the retrofitting, done.......new drives, scales, etc. To much peanut butter on my toast!
