    Default Copper turning

    I have to make electrodes for a EDM machine from copper. I will be turning these on a CNC lathe. What is the best insert to use. This has to be finished with a .0078 radius tool nose.
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    Default Re: Copper turning

    Im using Mitsubishi Carbide. Anything for aluminum would work. Something with a polished surface will give you a cleaner looking part.

    I'm currently turning Copper Alloy 110 with:

    DNMG - MIT259750 - ROUGHER
    VNGG - MIT209621 - FINISHER
