    Thank you. The CNC is a kit you assemble yourself, it’s a Queenant pro V2. As from today it’s completely up and running, calibrated, trammed and first test successfully completed. I can do a talk through of the machine and my impressions, if it would be of interest?

    I’m going to suggest slower RPM. Less step. Make sure your ramping and you got to get those chips evacuated out especially in deeper pockets. The heat builds up quickly down there. All the re grinding that happens.

    WTF sort of code is making them pockets? stick to climb, or stick to conventional. dont change on each step! (at least the countersink made its mind up and stuck with one direction?) ramps, and a standard pocket approach, much better results... even if that is an end cutting tool, its always better to ramp in... and with a flimsy router, stick to "conventional" milling. which would be, assuming CW spindle, a CW internal pocket, or CCW if doing an external. need a rigid machine with zero backlash to "climb" mill. especially on ali as it IS sticky! otherwise... yeah, seems to work fine, huh?

    profiling the cut in the opposite direction will also result in better part surface finish this is conventional machining the part surface and results in cutting forces pushing the endmill into the workpiece.

    I've had a similar thing happen yesterday. I was side milling a 1/8" aluminum piece held up with blue tape + CA glue + blue tape... my bit was not cutting enough material so my piece got hot and the unstuck... Learned my lesson... sad thing is it was only 10-15% done. Nice use of your machine!

  • @joshua43214
    @joshua432146 ай бұрын

    Your issue is not coolant, your issue is lack of rigidity. If you step starting at 3:17 using the ">" key you can see the entire z-axis flex to the left, then release when the cutter snaps. This is very light duty machine and is really only suitable for wood and plastic. This is not to say you can not cut aluminum, but you need better workholding than tape (it is not suitable for anything other than engraving), and an appropriate mill for the work. Not sure how you arrived at a single flute finishing mill, but it is totally the wrong choice. I strongly suggest a 2 flute mill, and even more strongly suggest a roughing mill. You do not have the rigidity for a finish mill, even a semi-roughing mill will produce a better surface than a flexi machine running a finishing mill. You will also find chips are far easier to manage with your vacuum (which is also not helping the cut, you might want to route some air down there to blow the chips out of the cut. I suggest you spend some time on forums with serious machinists such as the manual machining section of The Hobby Machinist or The Practical Machinist. Sadly, the CNC section at Hobby Machinist is mostly filled with people with light duty machines like yours claiming "they never had a problem" with it.

    Thanks for your suggestions. This was the first time cutting aluminium and lots of lessons were learnt. I’m fully aware of the machines capabilities, limitations and failings. As you stated the machine is primarily used for cutting wood. You will love how my work holding fails when doing the profile cut 🤣🤣🤣, video out soon.

    Ramping Ramping Ramping is an absolute must. The shock it gets when it plunges is why it broke. I would make shure that mdf is tight or nothing has backed off on the gantry causing vibration. I use the free fusion 360 personal because of this and use 3d adaptive tool path to rough out my part. Rough in climb cutting and finish the last .010 /.020 in conventional cutting. The high rpm is not needed aluminum gets hot easy and welds itself. Look at spe tooling and their stock speeds out of the library and run at 12000 rpm, not the 16000 or 18000 recommendation. Thicker chips about .003 to carry the heat away. That's what I am useing on a shapeoko 3 with a screw driven Z axis and I can walk a way for a bit and not baby it.

    Too fast for light duty machine. Good rpm...feed rate too fast. Chip evacuation probably another issue once cutting deep.
