Good morning friends. I have a medium size CNC, 600 (x) x1000 (y) x100 (Z) mm, spindle of 900W. I have recently put the end of courses, home limits, and so I referenced it in the 3 axes, x, y and z. And I use a basic program to zero the Z axis with a probe. My question now is to know the speeds I put into the specifications of the milling cutters when I'm going to do the machining strategy in Aspire. I have carbide end mills, from 0.5mm to 10mm in diameter. I need to cut ivory, mahogany woods at first; also mdf. I need to also machine some parts in acrylic, pvc, celeron (plate can pressed fiber of about 1.6mm thickness), polycarbonate. These plates should use 1mm-3mm cutters. In woods and mdf I think of using 3mm-10mm cutters. There are cases that I will need to use 0.5mm milling cutter in hard wood to make 60mm long slits with the same milling cutter width, that is, 0.5mm.
Could you give me an initial "north"? I normally use mm / sec.
Thank you all!
Genesio
