How to maintain milling cutter correctly

1, Check the power and rigidity to ensure the required milling cutter diameter can be used on the machine.

2, The overhang of the milling cutter on the spindle is as short as possible to reduce the influence of the axis of the cutter and the position of the workpiece on the impact load.

3, Use the correct milling cutter pitch suitable for the process to ensure that there are not too many blades engaged with the workpiece at the same time to cause vibration, on the other hand, ensure that there are enough blades engaged with the workpiece when milling narrow workpiece or milling cavity.

4, Choose a milling cutter diameter suitable for the width of the workpiece.

5, Place the milling cutter correctly.

6, Use cutting fluid only when necessary.

7, Follow tool maintenance and repair rules and monitor tool wear.
