23.5.3 Rebating and grooving
Figure 98: Grooving
Figure 99: Grooving tool D8
The milling depth is set. In principle: rather smaller cutting depth with more frequent machining
steps.
With a precise groove width, the milling diameter should be smaller than the finished groove
width.
The first machining step can be carried out from the back to the front as well as from the front to
the back.
The groove widening on the left side shall be carried out from the front to the rear and from the
right side from the rear to the front.
Here, too, the principle of "conventional milling" must always apply.
Figure 100: Grooving width 23 mm
The finished groove with a groove width of 10
mm and a groove depth of 2.5 mm.
The machining of long holes is carried out ac-
cordingly. According to the length of the long
hole, the movement of the milling tool in the Y-
direction to the front and back is limited.
The X-axis is clamped again.
Work with adapted feed rate.
