Thank boys! Emailing you from Stony Creek, Ontario Canada. You guys are awesome. Really appreciate what your doing. Just starting CNC machining after 25 years or so. I'm a manual machine guy but my heart was always with the technology aspect of machining. I was really apprehensive on starting back on CNC but you guys made it easier and less intimidating. I'm still nervous but excited and will keep watching your vids and gain some supper knowledge. Thanks again for what you guys are doing for the boys here at home! God bless! 👍👍
Come on guys you're doing great work in there but after all efforts u don't show us the tool doing the actual cutting? It comes down to be a theory if u don't show the actual work so i wish u do, tx.
Samir Samir We purchased this tool, didn’t work at all it made 3 pcs, we had to go back and use our Melin 9 flutes end mill which did like 10 pcs, do not waste the money on this tool 👎🏽
@@jaxxbrat2634 Excuses being they wanted to not lose the best paying jobs. We aren't even allowed to hire people who aren't naturalized citizens for any position at our company or we lose a ton of government work, you don't know what you're talking about.
I watch these and have no idea at all what anyone is talking about. Just like watching them geek over this it and see the material being machined. Never seen someone get so excited and enthused about this stuff - Brilliant!
I have some experience cutting inconel, and that stuff is CRAZY hard, it is very impressive for a mill to last for 6-7h Cudo's to Kenametal for creating such a beast!

Each and every week I'm inspired by this man and what he's accomplishing around the world. Truly an honour to be following and getting great advise from this legend... BOOM brother 🙌
As a machinist for BOEING! Who uses this exact type of end mill at least weekly i can tell you this cutter is a BEAST!!!!! in my opinion it os the best end mill for titanium!
Dam that's just so true, don't know how many endmills ive snapped running in inconell 728 😅 k8nda happy I switched job out of the oil industry and into medical jobs instead
We use ceramic inserts (SiAlOn) for Inconel 718 on work (for roughing/dry). The cutting speed is 25x higher than carbide - great time saver. With carbide endmills try to mill Inconel in conventional milling direction. It helps with hard materials, when your chip thickness starts at zero!!!
Ceramics are great with the right application, but you also go through a lot of inserts and down time changing tools unless you put time into your machine management. With these High End EndMill ... Always Climb... the doors is up for Inconel and definitely don’t want to run over any chips etc.
Suzaru87 I agree ceramic would been the better choice here. You can not only load Redundance tools on the machine and have it set up to change after so many mins and have the tool management for tool load setup would be better. Plus if he had a DMG Mori machine you can unload the tools as the machine running and change insert while it’s still going.
Johan Hägerström some machines you can’t load tools from the outside. I am not saying DMG Mori is the only machine. But HAAS and Doosan I know for you can’t.
Titan and crew, another great video. For the content, but more as it shows yet another aspect of machining which is lost to most. Not that the tool keeps breaking, but why the tool keeps breaking. I am going to have to go into the engineering side here, but the more you grasp as a expert in machining the better your are. Carbide, like every other metal bends, flexes, twists while it is doing it's thing. The law that governs this is called Wohler's Law, if you can grasp the math and the physics, identify all the variables that you deal with while machining a part and then apply the law to the application you can troubleshoot an issue such as this. There was a deflection (stress) in the tool over a period of time, that after a set time that stress became greater than the tool's capability and it failed. I wish I could get my hands on a few of the broken endmills to see just where the breaks happened and find what caused them to break. Sometimes being a good detective is much cheaper than "let it cut and see what happens", than again sometimes that is the only thing you can do. There is a recipe for everything, pancakes, apple pie, and endmill selection. The better you measure the ingredients, the better the outcome. Would you have seen improved tool life from a smaller gullet/larger core tool, a shorter flute height tool, a change in helix angle, possibly switching to an endmill with down-cutting flutes putting the tool in compression as opposed to tension, or just using the tool you have and conventional cutting as opposed to climb cutting reducing the deflection by the tool cutting into the material instead of cutting material off. There are soo many variables that you have to take into account, but the better you are, the better the product. This way of thinking is how we are going to bring more manufacturing back here, getting past the old ways of just going with it, and bringing the art and science together.

the main problem is the tool becomes blunt,tool wear. the the loads on the tool rise till the load reaches a point were it fatigues then brakes, also as the tool bend due to the cutting loads the cutting angles change which is not going to be for the better wear increases load rise. interesting you measure time. Time is not important its the total metal removed that maters .
They are machinists. Not material scientists, or end mill manufacturers. I like your zeal, but its wasted here. They cant waste time on such things, they are either making chips or losing money.
Great video guys!! Been in the industry for over 50 year,,,,yea,,,,old fart here. But I am still learning some things from you guys! Thanks! And thanks for the great deal on your Dodecka face mills!!
I remember Ben Rich's book about the Lockheed Skunkworks mentioning that machining titanium was one of the hardest problems they had developing the SR-71. They pretty much had to make all their own tooling.
Can you do a video on shop organization? Storing endmills, drills, vises, toolholder etc. I’m in a small shop where everything is pretty much thrown together in a cabinet with buckets and bins and I want to try to organize it but I’m not sure how to go about it. Awesome videos by the way, keep it up!
Chauvin Emmons I like what I see, unfortunately I don’t think I’d be able to convince the boss to buy some of those. Before I started working here a little over a year ago, they were buying cheap, Chinese HSS endmills. I convinced them to make the switch to carbide endmills from a reputable company and even that was tough.
In Germany you guys are not using shitty machine tools like Haas.... They're not a rigid cutting machine in materials other than aluminum........ Many shops in the US try to get away from spending some money on a well built machine which in my experience all are built in JAPAN....... sorry Haas....
Man, i actually wish these kinds of materials would show up more on my table. I remember my first time machining Inconel 625, that was quite the experience! I will always remember what my customer told me: "If you can machine this, you can machine anything!“ That's what i work for, i want to make my customers proud with my work!
Ok a side note Caron engineering makes some amazing load monitoring tools. At my work one of the machines is equipped with their product and it catches and stops the machine the moment of insert damage before cartridge or work damage. No need to have someone watching a mill run because a tool might fail.
Try green leaf ceramics I use them every day on inconel 718 went from roughing with carbide at 90sfm to between 750sfm to 900sfm depending on which tool
Once you know when the tool is about to die, stop and pull the tool a bit early. # 1 A dull tool is work hardening the surface and the next tool’s life will be shortened. #2 When a tool breaks, it can leave imbedded carbide in the part just waiting to hurt the new tool at the very fist moment. #3 A broken or badly chipped endmill has no regrind value. Goering divers are are like zombies in 4140 HT 38Rc. Factory regrind/recoat are better than new for some reason, go figure?
Hey titan, I know it’s not your style, but I think it’d be pretty cool if you did a “budget desktop cnc” where you’d use 1.5-2.2kw spindles and see how hard you can push those things. There’s really not too much info out there on home built CNCs that are cutting steel. This Old Tony has some videos on it but it’s not too expansive or in detail about his gantry or spindle yeti. Anyways, great videos man. I don’t even run CNCs but I still love watching your videos.
No idea. Pretty strange to me. We use roughing mills in everything we do, even aluminum. We can get through 10000 parts EASY without worrying about degradation of our finish mill.
Titan some of us can't get the newest and best machines. You've talked about your start on a TRAK mill. Can you make some videos on how to push a TRAK mill for best efficiency and machine/tool life?
Dear Titan, I have huge respect for you, and your mission of education! I think you have a lot to give to this world. Just a gentle reminder that this fawning infomercial would have had more educational value if you had linked to a video about this particular part, or explained what the machining challenge was, what the original cutter(s) were, why the original cutters failed, why the new cutters were better, and what you learned. So many educational opportunities missed here, but at least you stressed the importance of keeping records. I'll tell anybody the most important tool the shop is a notebook and pen. I say "Making mistakes is how we learn, repeating them is how we fail." Because in machining, everything matters - the machine, the setup, etc., not just your cutter supplier. With all respect, the takeaway message here "hang the entire future of your entire shop on a single tool type (and reliance on expensive overnight shipping) from a single vendor, and just fly out for a meeting with them whenever you get stuck" doesn't really compare with the educational content of your other excellent videos. :-)
All my endmill look like ballmills after a production run. I pull out endmill from scrap buckets that are perfect for roughing at high speed. Power milling they will snap within a minute
MY NAME IS KEN HENDRICKS. I AM A TOOL AND DIE MAKER. I WORKED AT WESTING HOUSE FOR 18 YEARS MAKING ALL THE HARD PARTS. I HAVE WORKED WITH A LOT OF INCONEL 718 AND MONEL 500. A VARIABLE PITCH MILL 1,0 DIA IS THE ROUGHING MILL AND THEN FINISH WITH THE BIGGEST MILL THAT THE PART ALLOWS. I HAVE WORKED EXTENSIVELY WITH KENNAMETAL
Titan how about Rifling by Flow Forming some Military Tank Barrels using a material containing 50% Cobalt ? Can you image the size of those 3 rollers applying the pressure. Titan, invest in Stuart...going places!
After watching the film, we also bought 2(Harvi III D16MM AP32MM Z6 R3 N) cutting Inconel718+ Vc=32 M/min ,tool life only 37mins Vc=60 M/min ,tool life only 70 secs We can still look forward to increased tool life How can we achieve 7 hours of tool life? from taiwan AMI
Try YG1 endmills made for hard milling. They are made in Korea though, but OMG, I use to use them for hard milling mold cavities in powdered metal. No endmill would last longer than 15 min. Salesman came in, gave me a YG1 to test. Thought he was all talk. Let machine cut all night long. Was expecting a broken cutter. Came into work that morning and was shocked that it wasn't only still cutting, endmill looked brand new and finish was like glass. Not only that, it was under $100.
Titan! Would be great if in a future you can machine an iPhone/iPad frame/chassis. At least only with the tooling you have make an approach to the final specs, because they use some laser machining for making it. But would be great if you can make an approach on it to show to the industry that some metallic parts of high end devices can be made in the USA at a good price. What do you think?. Thank you Titan for al your efforts.
A message to Titan, hoping this reaches you.. My name is Tyler Rook and I'm a machinist. It's in my blood and I live, love, and breath it. My grandfather started and grew a somewhat widely known company called ATS Workholding, but for reasons too time consuming for me to explain at the moment he no longer owns that company. So since 2009 or so he has been running an aerospace job shop. Fast forward to 2015, I packed up everything I owned and moved from Iowa to SoCal to work for him. I already knew how to make good parts at this point and could read code like I was reading a book, but I didn't know anything about how to program with a software. So I found a local MasterCam class and was instantly hooked and excelled far past my classmates. My grandpa has great relationships with tooling reps simply from doing this for so long, so we teamed up with some great reps that knew their shit and started kicking ass. My grandpa's niche was already hard metals, I couldn't even estimate how many hundreds of thousands of parts I've made out of 625, 718, A286, some monel, and some hasteloy. The point I'm trying to reach here is that I've never met or seen anyone that I feel has the same amount of love, skill, and drive for this industry until I started watching your videos and the dude from NYC CNC. And I believe that people like us, working together to teach other shops how to run as efficient as possible all across the nation could potentially help America's economy immensely. If you would be willing, I would love to come visit you sometime to talk about how I can help do the same thing you're doing. I want to educate people and do it the right way. My email is tyler.rook@yahoo.com I really want to make a difference!
Tyler, that’s an incredible story. Love your passion. It definitely takes an army to bring change and I am working to do my part... Speaking Boldly and Fighting for it. Are you part of my TITANS of CNC: Academy Private Facebook Group? That’s a great way to start...
Possibly a dumb question, so pardon... I've never run a machining centre, rather I program a turret punch press and a laser profiling machine - so I love CNC. But if a tool is so expensive and has a defined life, wouldn't it be smart to stop using the tool before it catastrophically dies, and program in a new fresh tool to take over, thereby not stopping the job and work-flow. Maybe, because the tool is not completely dead, the used tool can be returned to the manufacturer for refurbishment, saving $$$$.
Sometimes it's worth the money to regrind but often it isn't because the more edges they need to regrind, obviously the more it will cost. Regrinds rarely last even close to the cutting time of the original tool. Probably due to heat stress, deflection stress and they don't usually re-coat the cutting edges like the original tool. I'm betting it's not cost effective to regrind a 6 flute endmill , especially if your only getting a half life because replacing the tool and restarting the job in the middle of the program is also a lot of lost time. Time is money in a production shop.
If I had a part that kept breaking endmills, I'd think about running that part on a different machine to see if the machine is the fault. I'd try a 50 taper and see if cutting tool life improved, if it did, then I'd say it was my tuning fork of a machine that was the root cause of the short tool life.
Why are you running your tools to the failure point? We always set tool life to pull the tool early and send in a fresh horse. It's cheaper to have a tired tool resharpened than breaking them and then replacing them.
ten littleindians If it survives through the whole roughing process, it’s cheaper to just keep it in the machine as opposed to stopping the program, pulling it out, putting a new tool in and starting again. Making the parts faster will make up for the cost of the tooling
@@ardimarcs7698 Clearly you have never priced these end mills. Even if they have the tool capacity filled they could have another in a holder on the bench with it's information loaded into another tool offset slot. It takes less than a minute to manually swap the tools and call up the offset for the fresh horse. While the tool is cutting away the operator can swap out the tired cutter and measure it on the presetter and enter the data into the machine. Even on a machine brand that won't let you adjust offsets while it's running you can still right down the numbers on a piece of masking tape and stick it on the tool so they are handy for entering later.
sandvik coromant is actually the best tool/Insert manufacturer in the world, this is just kennametal advertising... dont believe everything on the internet.
Only $2,000,000,000 per endmill. I can't even imagine how much this endmill costs. I looked at a Kennametal 1/2 dia endmill for profiling aluminum, 1" flute length. It was $600 per endmill. I could buy data flute endmills that probably work better and cost WAY less.
Kennametal Novo also works in metrics? Because for a lot of us users those freedomunits are just: "Erm this chipload is 4/780 footballfields long and u should use 165/32 beerkegs of feed"
You commenters are a crack up. They will never show the machining for this part. It's called "Export Control Laws" - basically a gag order, they aren't allowed to divulge anything about the part or its customer. I'm a machinist for a small shop that does prototyping work for aerospace companies - super high precision work. All I cut are the INCOs, the hastelloys, the A286s, the AISI A2's, the titaniums, the monels - basically the materials most shops don't want to deal with. And I say that because of my years of experience, all the software's tool companies provide that these guys are talking about towards the end are worth DIRT. Nothing trumps experience. I had a representative from a major tool supplier in my shop wanting to show off a special endmill like this one, he tried to show us the Speed/Feed software they had. I saw the numbers and laughed "the tools gonna break in minutes" - it broke in 2. Never trust those softwares.
Can you do a video explaining dynamic work offsets on the UMC750? Been programming using the pivot point on older 5 axis trunnions and I know the UMC750 and newer trunnions are different.
Have you ever tried milling in hardox 600 Steel. I use MachiningCloud instead of Novo in There are also many other retailers a Kennametal For example seco, Walter, ISCAR, Paul Horn GmbH, Tungaloy's, TaeguTec, and many more
I by this tool, but for Bolher k346 it’s doesn’t work. After one pass all the Harvey III break. So I changed the tools to a rough edge tool, the cycle time is longer but I can make 8 cycles of 2 pieces or 16 pieces.
What if your electricity was free to you and you have foundry as a part of your operation? How much would you save then? I'm serious about the free electrical!

Once you know when the tool is about to die, stop and pull the tool a bit early. # 1 A dull tool is work hardening the surface and the next tool’s life will be shortened. #2 When a tool breaks, it can leave imbedded carbide in the part just waiting to hurt the new tool at the very fist moment. #3 A broken or badly chipped endmill has no regrind value. Goering divers are are like zombies in 4140 HT 38Rc. Factory regrind/recoat are better than new for some reason, go figure?
"leave a comment were good about answering comments" - answers no comments hahaha
The 🧟♀️ mill. It munched and munched metal.😂
Hey titan, I know it’s not your style, but I think it’d be pretty cool if you did a “budget desktop cnc” where you’d use 1.5-2.2kw spindles and see how hard you can push those things. There’s really not too much info out there on home built CNCs that are cutting steel. This Old Tony has some videos on it but it’s not too expansive or in detail about his gantry or spindle yeti.
Anyways, great videos man. I don’t even run CNCs but I still love watching your videos.
I am doing some Tormach videos to show the entire spectrum
Hey brother GOD bless you and keep up the good work
I run 718 inconel and we use roughing mills aka hog mills. Don't know why Titan wouldn't.
I had the exact same thought? Why use such a flimsy end mill
No idea. Pretty strange to me. We use roughing mills in everything we do, even aluminum. We can get through 10000 parts EASY without worrying about degradation of our finish mill.
No need for sound when you can see Titan talking. "100 Thousand Dollars" lol
keep up the good work mate!
I love those endmills, they were exceptionally good when they were made by Hanita - before Kenna bought them.
Titan some of us can't get the newest and best machines. You've talked about your start on a TRAK mill. Can you make some videos on how to push a TRAK mill for best efficiency and machine/tool life?
Dear Titan, I have huge respect for you, and your mission of education! I think you have a lot to give to this world. Just a gentle reminder that this fawning infomercial would have had more educational value if you had linked to a video about this particular part, or explained what the machining challenge was, what the original cutter(s) were, why the original cutters failed, why the new cutters were better, and what you learned. So many educational opportunities missed here, but at least you stressed the importance of keeping records. I'll tell anybody the most important tool the shop is a notebook and pen. I say "Making mistakes is how we learn, repeating them is how we fail." Because in machining, everything matters - the machine, the setup, etc., not just your cutter supplier. With all respect, the takeaway message here "hang the entire future of your entire shop on a single tool type (and reliance on expensive overnight shipping) from a single vendor, and just fly out for a meeting with them whenever you get stuck" doesn't really compare with the educational content of your other excellent videos. :-)
A lot has to do with the quality of machine and tool holder. Try a test back to back with HAAS vs Mori / Matsuurawith the best holder.
Try out cutting molybdenum. It's sintered and crazy hard, you also can't conventional cut or it will crack. Climb cutting only!
I’ve been CNC machining for years and I’ve never found an instance that needed a conventional cut. Climb cutting is the only way to go
Everything Kennametal knows about end mills came from me at Hanita lol. That's right.. 20 years ago. they called it the VARIMILL
great video again guys, keep it up
All my endmill look like ballmills after a production run. I pull out endmill from scrap buckets that are perfect for roughing at high speed. Power milling they will snap within a minute
MY NAME IS KEN HENDRICKS. I AM A TOOL AND DIE MAKER. I WORKED AT WESTING HOUSE FOR 18 YEARS MAKING ALL THE HARD PARTS. I HAVE WORKED WITH A LOT OF INCONEL 718 AND MONEL 500. A VARIABLE PITCH MILL 1,0 DIA IS THE ROUGHING MILL AND THEN FINISH WITH THE BIGGEST MILL THAT THE PART ALLOWS. I HAVE WORKED EXTENSIVELY WITH KENNAMETAL
Likely need to use a water jet or some type of electrical discharge machining to really bite into that material.
Titan how about Rifling by Flow Forming some Military Tank Barrels using a material containing 50% Cobalt ? Can you image the size of those 3 rollers applying the pressure. Titan, invest in Stuart...going places!
After watching the film, we also bought 2(Harvi III D16MM AP32MM Z6 R3 N) cutting Inconel718+
Vc=32 M/min ,tool life only 37mins
Vc=60 M/min ,tool life only 70 secs
We can still look forward to increased tool life
How can we achieve 7 hours of tool life?

Try YG1 endmills made for hard milling. They are made in Korea though, but OMG, I use to use them for hard milling mold cavities in powdered metal. No endmill would last longer than 15 min. Salesman came in, gave me a YG1 to test. Thought he was all talk. Let machine cut all night long. Was expecting a broken cutter. Came into work that morning and was shocked that it wasn't only still cutting, endmill looked brand new and finish was like glass. Not only that, it was under $100.
There are constant advances in cutting tools......keep looking at the new stuff and always go for the FREE DEMO
Titan! Would be great if in a future you can machine an iPhone/iPad frame/chassis. At least only with the tooling you have make an approach to the final specs, because they use some laser machining for making it. But would be great if you can make an approach on it to show to the industry that some metallic parts of high end devices can be made in the USA at a good price. What do you think?. Thank you Titan for al your efforts.
You're an AWESOME man. I think I have finally found the master of CNC. You are the CNC King!
Good tutorial
A message to Titan, hoping this reaches you.. My name is Tyler Rook and I'm a machinist. It's in my blood and I live, love, and breath it. My grandfather started and grew a somewhat widely known company called ATS Workholding, but for reasons too time consuming for me to explain at the moment he no longer owns that company. So since 2009 or so he has been running an aerospace job shop. Fast forward to 2015, I packed up everything I owned and moved from Iowa to SoCal to work for him. I already knew how to make good parts at this point and could read code like I was reading a book, but I didn't know anything about how to program with a software. So I found a local MasterCam class and was instantly hooked and excelled far past my classmates. My grandpa has great relationships with tooling reps simply from doing this for so long, so we teamed up with some great reps that knew their shit and started kicking ass. My grandpa's niche was already hard metals, I couldn't even estimate how many hundreds of thousands of parts I've made out of 625, 718, A286, some monel, and some hasteloy. The point I'm trying to reach here is that I've never met or seen anyone that I feel has the same amount of love, skill, and drive for this industry until I started watching your videos and the dude from NYC CNC. And I believe that people like us, working together to teach other shops how to run as efficient as possible all across the nation could potentially help America's economy immensely. If you would be willing, I would love to come visit you sometime to talk about how I can help do the same thing you're doing. I want to educate people and do it the right way. My email is tyler.rook@yahoo.com I really want to make a difference!
Tyler, that’s an incredible story. Love your passion. It definitely takes an army to bring change and I am working to do my part... Speaking Boldly and Fighting for it.
Are you part of my TITANS of CNC: Academy Private Facebook Group?
That’s a great way to start...
Possibly a dumb question, so pardon... I've never run a machining centre, rather I program a turret punch press and a laser profiling machine - so I love CNC. But if a tool is so expensive and has a defined life, wouldn't it be smart to stop using the tool before it catastrophically dies, and program in a new fresh tool to take over, thereby not stopping the job and work-flow. Maybe, because the tool is not completely dead, the used tool can be returned to the manufacturer for refurbishment, saving $$$$.
Sometimes it's worth the money to regrind but often it isn't because the more edges they need to regrind, obviously the more it will cost. Regrinds rarely last even close to the cutting time of the original tool. Probably due to heat stress, deflection stress and they don't usually re-coat the cutting edges like the original tool. I'm betting it's not cost effective to regrind a 6 flute endmill , especially if your only getting a half life because replacing the tool and restarting the job in the middle of the program is also a lot of lost time. Time is money in a production shop.
If I had a part that kept breaking endmills, I'd think about running that part on a different machine to see if the machine is the fault. I'd try a 50 taper and see if cutting tool life improved, if it did, then I'd say it was my tuning fork of a machine that was the root cause of the short tool life.
This made me laugh because it looks so much like a telethon sales event lol
Maybe you can try our endmill. Test on inconel 4099 with constant milling for 6 hours.
Why are you running your tools to the failure point? We always set tool life to pull the tool early and send in a fresh horse. It's cheaper to have a tired tool resharpened than breaking them and then replacing them.
ten littleindians
If it survives through the whole roughing process, it’s cheaper to just keep it in the machine as opposed to stopping the program, pulling it out, putting a new tool in and starting again. Making the parts faster will make up for the cost of the tooling
Could just have a duplicate tool in the carosel. Tool change at Line "x" for duplicate.
Eluderatnight they could buy guessing that don’t have big enough tool changer
@@ardimarcs7698 Clearly you have never priced these end mills. Even if they have the tool capacity filled they could have another in a holder on the bench with it's information loaded into another tool offset slot. It takes less than a minute to manually swap the tools and call up the offset for the fresh horse. While the tool is cutting away the operator can swap out the tired cutter and measure it on the presetter and enter the data into the machine. Even on a machine brand that won't let you adjust offsets while it's running you can still right down the numbers on a piece of masking tape and stick it on the tool so they are handy for entering later.
@@Eluderatnight Yes, that's the proper way to do it in many cases.
Sandvick has good end mills for inconel as well.
sandvik coromant is actually the best tool/Insert manufacturer in the world, this is just kennametal advertising... dont believe everything on the internet.
@@Validity_TN Also the most expensive.
@@EdritKolotityeah, because its the best. im from switzerland, we almost only use these.
Cheers boys!!
Only $2,000,000,000 per endmill. I can't even imagine how much this endmill costs. I looked at a Kennametal 1/2 dia endmill for profiling aluminum, 1" flute length. It was $600 per endmill. I could buy data flute endmills that probably work better and cost WAY less.
Kennametal Novo also works in metrics? Because for a lot of us users those freedomunits are just: "Erm this chipload is 4/780 footballfields long and u should use 165/32 beerkegs of feed"
Awesome info Titan ! Your the man!
You commenters are a crack up. They will never show the machining for this part.
It's called "Export Control Laws" - basically a gag order, they aren't allowed to divulge anything about the part or its customer.
I'm a machinist for a small shop that does prototyping work for aerospace companies - super high precision work.
All I cut are the INCOs, the hastelloys, the A286s, the AISI A2's, the titaniums, the monels - basically the materials most shops don't want to deal with.
And I say that because of my years of experience, all the software's tool companies provide that these guys are talking about towards the end are worth DIRT.
Nothing trumps experience.
I had a representative from a major tool supplier in my shop wanting to show off a special endmill like this one, he tried to show us the Speed/Feed software they had. I saw the numbers and laughed "the tools gonna break in minutes"
- it broke in 2.
Never trust those softwares.
Try really slow speed and really deep cut depth. Any tool gets it done brother. You've got to get under the hard surface from previous cut.
Thank you for your wisdom!!
Verry good brother booooom 👍👍👍💪💪💪💪💪😍
kennametal is in my state. love pennsylvania
Can you do a video explaining dynamic work offsets on the UMC750? Been programming using the pivot point on older 5 axis trunnions and I know the UMC750 and newer trunnions are different.
boooom man your the best
Part should be hardened after its machined that would save you even more.
Wish it was possible. Customer supplied material that had to go through a unique process up front.
Εισασται οι καλυτεροι,, σας παρακολουθω οσο μπωρο πιο τακτικα,,,εργαζωμε στην ελλαδα σε cnc τορνο και φρεζα haas!!!
Do you guys have any manual with further details on machining such materials??
Have you ever tried milling in hardox 600 Steel.
I use MachiningCloud instead of Novo in There are also many other retailers a Kennametal For example seco, Walter, ISCAR, Paul Horn GmbH, Tungaloy's, TaeguTec, and many more
No I haven’t...
Sounds Hard:-)
Machine Haynes188, A286, Monel, Inconel etc... Nitronic, TI, 15-5
I would like to see the feeds and speeds that you used for this endmill. Also the formula. Cheers
I by this tool, but for Bolher k346 it’s doesn’t work. After one pass all the Harvey III break. So I changed the tools to a rough edge tool, the cycle time is longer but I can make 8 cycles of 2 pieces or 16 pieces.
Great information. Would love to see it cutting a part. Thanks
He has plenty of vids where he cuts inconel with this tool
Awesome
Should buy a cnc tool and end mill sharpener.
That's crazy!!
Need someone to take care of the scrap endmills? Pretty sure they dont bring any money 😁
Did you try some of yg-1 endmills? We use the x5070 to cut up to rc70
Love Yg1s tools. For Ti and Stainless
Especially their XPower series. Their Jet Power fine roughers are amazing. But for Inconel not so much.
@@pakman422 had really good luck with their TitaNox Power on stainless. Getting 8 times the work done VS the imco's I was using previously.
That's how you do it! 100k will buy a lot of socks.
can you talk about how you go about quoting jobs correctly?
Look up building your own shop part 2 on this channel
No Lathes? Enough with the Mills, let's see more on Lathes.

Zombie mill! Dun dun dun... savage.
Amazing zombie mill fuck yea
Another great video, thank you guys for putting this out for us to keep learning.
What if your electricity was free to you and you have foundry as a part of your operation? How much would you save then? I'm serious about the free electrical!
Haas is not the appropriate machine tool for the application....
In Germany you guys are not using shitty machine tools like Haas.... They're not a rigid cutting machine in materials other than aluminum........ Many shops in the US try to get away from spending some money on a well built machine which in my experience all are built in JAPAN....... sorry Haas....
I pushed the like buTTon.
