Shear-Hogs, Shell and T-Slot style Faster CIM metal removal rates in aluminum depend more on IPM feed rates, horsepower and the cutter geometry than RPM. You'll get higher CIM with smaller cutters, (assuming you're rough milling with cutters about one inch in diameter and larger). On tests 5, and 8, with full diameter cuts, the one inch gets CIM, the -/ gets CIM and the two inch gets 7 CIM. You'll get higher CIM with a cut width that is about of the cutter diameter than with a full diameter cut width, (a long accepted machinist's rule). Compare Tests versus and versus 7. You can get the same CIM with fewer flutes, plus reduced insert costs; see Test 8. See back cover for SH750 and all of the shank style Shear-Hogs. CUTTER DIA.

20 THE SINGLE FLUTE CHAMFER HOGS INCL. ANGLE CHA90- SHOWN FULL SIZE This cutter was developed in 98 for spot drilling and chamfer milling small slots in non-ferrous part materials. If used prior to drilling in non-ferrous materials it performs well. If used as a countersink after the hole is drilled it is chatter prone. It is not for use as a rotating cutter in ferrous materials since the (5 ) relief angle is too weak. However, in the more rigid lathe environment it can be used successfully to spot drill holes in ferrous materials. We spot drill our Accu-Holds (0) in CNC Lathes at 900 RPM and.0005 IPR, with tool life of 00 holes per insert corner. It should never be used in a drill press. All five cutters have shanks and are 5" overall. All Single Flute Chamfer-Hogs, including inserts, are $75. each Number CHA90- CHA8- CHA00- CHA0- CHA0-* Included Angle Maximum Chamfer Diameter Insert TFG-90 TFG-90 TFG-90 TDP-0 TFG-90 Clamp CL- CL- CL- 5-0 CL- Insert Prices TFG-90 TFG-90T (Tin Coated) TDP-0 $.5 $.50 $.5 * NOTE : CHA0- is not center cut; it has.00 end cut diameter.

24 THE ALUMA-HOGS CUT LENGTH ALH -5/ SHOWN FULL SIZE We started making ALUMA-HOGS in 98. In 997 we introduced the SHEAR-HOG; see back cover. With its high shear inserts, and no top clamps, the SHEAR-HOG outperforms the ALUMA-HOGS by 50% in Metal Removal rates. We will stock Aluma-Hogs, inserts, and parts as long as needed.

25 Discussing some Metal Cutting Myths Cutting tool Myth ; "Increase relief angles for non ferrous and reduce relief angles for ferrous." In a 959 test, milling 0 at Rc with diameter HSS end mills, using the same RPM/IPM, Carl Oxford of National Twist Drill got 5 parts with 9 (conventional) relief and 5 parts with 7 relief. He used.00 wear land widths to judge when the tools failed. Cutting tool Myth ; "Eccentrically ground end mills are stronger than profile ground." CAD drawings of the cutting edge show that a primary/secondary relief grind is stronger than form relief IF...both have the same relief amount over the critical surface near the cutting edge. Cutting tool Myth ; "When milling aluminum with HSS cutters 500 SFM is the limit." Three decades ago at FMC Ordnance in San Jose, CA.5 inch HSS form cutters were used in aluminum, in production, at 700 RPM which is 8500 SFM, using spray mist only. There were no signs of burning or overheating. Cutting tool Myth ; "The over-emphasized importance of minor diameter compliance in threaded holes." Example...it takes 000 pounds of pull pressure to cause internal thread failure in /-0 tapped holes in aluminum! This was proven in MetLabs tests in 975 in San Jose, CA even though it sounds impossible. They used specially designed male pull members, (which they described as Grade 8 Fasteners), heat treated with ground threads, to assure that the male threads would not fail first. The internal threads, in cast aluminum, were made with cut taps and form taps. The cut taps failed with a tensile strength of pounds and the form taps failed with a tensile strength of 0 pounds. They also tested 0- threads in the same way, except in wrought aluminum. The cut taps failed with a tensile strength of 70 pounds and the form taps failed with a tensile strength of 85 pounds. Most of us are required to drill and tap holes according to standards, the point is that internal threads made to our standards are strong beyond belief. Climb versus Conventional Milling. We have all learned that climb milling is more efficient because conventional milling causes more side pressure on the end mill. True, but the cut width as a ratio to cutter diameter is also a factor..8 Cutter Enlarged to show cutter face, not sharp edge, striking part first. If the width of cut is / of the cutter diameter or less, "climb" works beautifully. If the width of cut is of the diameter or more, then the positive rake in the end mill becomes negative, meaning the face, not the cutting edge, strikes the part first..8 Cutter Diameter This concept first discussed by Dapra Corporation in the 97 issue of Modern Machine Shop.
