Braille Tool milling bit
The supplied milling bit is heavily unbalanced
and should not be run faster than 20.000 RPM
to avoid excessive wear to the milling spindle!
This also means that you should not use this
bit when warming up the milling spindle as the
warm up sequence exceeds 20.000rpm.
Braille Tool setup
In order to create high quality consistent braille patterns you should perform
Tool Height
and
Tool Offset
calibrations.
Before adjusting offset you should set the tool height of the
Braille Tool
. This can be done
manually or automatically using
X-Pad
.
