One thing that breaks the corners off end mills, especially those expensive carbide ones, is starting the cut at full feed speed on a hard square edge or corner of the material. Its like hitting the corner of the cutting edge with a sharp hammer blow. Unless I'm in a big hurry to get some mass production work out the door (and I have end mills I use for only that kind of quick and dirty work), I always start conventional milling cuts very gently. Start the cut by slow hand feed and then engage the feed drive. Same for breaking through the end of the cut. Disengage the power feed and gently ease the tool through the violent interrupted cut. When climb milling, I try to keep the impact angle of the flutes shallow to avoid the hammer effect. I rarely get broken corners on my end mills this way.

Thanks for watching. Surprisingly it works very well. Don't throw away your old end mills. Save them up, then setup the lathe and grind them all in one session.

I have been doing similar touching up on some of my endmills. I have a D-bit grinder, though, so the relief angle can be set directly. However, many grinders use height adjustment and wheel diameter to set the relief angle, as you have done. The larger size mills are a good place to start because they're a lot more expensive to replace and, frankly, it's easier to see what you're doing. HSS is also a good choice. A non center-cutting endmill makes thing easier, too. If it's center cutting, you need a 3rd bevel and a narrow wheel to gash all but one of the cutting lips. I've been experimenting with a 0.035 diamond cutoff wheel. So far, I've sharpened up a 3/8 in solid carbide cutter. Your primary relief looks too wide but the cut looks fine. If you put marker on the primary grind and then do a cut in steel, rubbing will be revealed. Thanks for the video.

Your resharpening looks good and any plunge cutting should work well if there’s a pilot hole (non center cutting end mill shown in your video), however as you move the material past the end mill it’s the teeth on the side of the end mill that are doing the cutting so hopefully they are still sharp.

Жыл бұрын

Hi, thanks for the sub. Yes, I have seen This old Tony's end mill sharpening video. I will do it that way if I'm ever lucky enough to find a cheap surface grinder.

I like your spindle indexer. FWIW, you can make a lot of headway by roughing in the end flutes on a bench grinder before you get to the final grinding stage. In particular, grinding the secondary relief (farthest from the cutting edge) can be done by hand, and leave just a narrow zone about 1 mm wide to grind the primary relief without using up your little stone too quickly. But you need a good wheel with a square corner so as to get near the center. In practice, a CBN wheel is a great investment for grinding HSS, as it will hold its shape for a long time, and grinds cool, if you get it in a coarse grit like 100 or so. I never bother with grinding the OD of the flutes, as this often results in reduced gullet depth that clogs too easily with chips. Also, you are changing the rake of the tool as you reduce it's diameter, so it doesn't cut very well if you have taken much off. I only shorten worn endmills and regrind the end clearances. In actual fact, it really doesn't matter a hell of a lot if all the flutes are the exact same length. ONE of them will produce the finish on the surface anyways. and most guys aren't feeding the tool so hard that they'd notice any scalloping effect whatsoever. You actually buy commercial inserts for face mills and install ONE wiper insert (along with several normal quality cutting inserts) on it to produce the finish you want, so that shows how having them all 'the same' is really just a pipe dream. A slightly worn or damaged endmill can be brought back into service by grinding a corner chamfer on it, sufficient to remove the dulled tip. Yes, you do have to think about whether that is suitable for a particular job, but there plenty of selections you can make to save some money buying new.

It probably would give a better finish, but its the curve of the wheel and raising the center height of the wheel which gives the 5 and 30 degree clearance angles. Well.... that probably also depends on the diameter of the wheel as well.

Good work there. All I have to sharpen my end mills is a purpose built tool cutter grinder made by a former club member.. (Sorry for bragging) I see the black looking end mill.

Alumin(i)um oxide (pink stones) stays together well against steel. You'll know very soon if this is a silicon carbide wheel by the way it erodes away. You can keep a pink stone sharp without dressing for a long, long time but a SillyCarb stone will wear off and blunt and glaze over badly as the carbon crystals melt and are absorbed by the iron, leaving only the substrate behind. SiC isn't expensive, but it gets to be a PITA to keep it in stock when it wears away almost as fast as the steel you grind with it. 8) You may do five hundred end mills with a pink stone but only five with a SiC stone. The more end mills (and other stuff) you sharpen in one swat, the more important it becomes... because... If your stone wears appreciably as you do one flute, then it'll be smaller when it does the next flute, and smaller still when you do the fourth (or sixth). That means that one flute will always be appreciably longer than the others and will do the bulk of the work, wearing out worse than the others. Your goal is to try to make all the flutes the same length within some ridiculously small tolerance, so you want a long-wearing stone and you want to make one final pass on all flutes, just kissing the steel lightly, to level them up.

This is a poor and incorrect method of sharpening a cutting edge. The worst thing is the discoloration on the tool, this indicates that the metal has been overheated, which means that its cutting properties have deteriorated and subsequently it will become dull again faster. Second, an emphasis is needed for precise positioning of the tooth. The stop will make the correct fixation of all the teeth of the cutter. Thirdly, the lathe chuck for sharpening cutters is not suitable as the lathe itself, the lathe chuck will not provide the maximum allowable runout for a 0.02mm universal tool. The dremel spindle itself does not have rigidity, but these are additional vibrations and beating of the grinding wheel.
