What is an end mill?
1. What is an end mill?
End mills are generally used for milling end faces; instead of slot milling, keyway cutters are used for milling slots. Disc milling cutters are mainly used for milling large end faces because the diameter of disc milling cutters is generally relatively large, and milling large end faces is milling. It is faster, and the saw blade milling cutter is generally used for milling.
2. Why can’t the end mill cut vertically?
When the end mill rotates, the midpoint of the bottom edge is relatively static, and it does not have any cutting and chip removal properties, so it cannot be cut vertically.
3. How to determine the feed rate of the end mill?
The choice of cutting amount should be considered comprehensively with factors such as tools, workpieces, and machine tools. The main cutting edge of the end mill is the peripheral edge. 0.25-0.3mm, it should be matched with cutting parameters such as cutting speed, axial depth of cut, and radial depth of cut.
