Machining Inconel FAST with an Indexable Face Mill

This video demonstrates ceramic milling cutters from Seco Tools and their cost-efficient CNC machining of nickel-based alloys. A few benefits of using ceramic milling cutters… – Significantly increased cutting speeds (in comparison to solid carbide tools) – High metal removal rate – Short machining times – High productivity with nickel-based alloys with difficult cutting properties, in particular, Inconel Nickel-based alloys such as Inconel are most commonly used in the aerospace industry. These types of tooling solutions can help companies take their aerospace part production to the next level. Also, these ceramic milling cutters are heat resistant, so these sparks are entirely normal. Using coolant at this high temperature can promote thermal shocks and has a negative effect on tool life. Using air is recommended instead. Material: Inconel 718 Imperial 2626 sf/min .003 IPT .07” stepdown 75% stepover Metric vc: 800 m/min fz: 0,08 mm
