2-1 Cautions for High Speed Processing
During high-speed processing (S = 8000 rpm or above; F = 300 mm/min or above), the shank and the
style of the cutter has a critical impact on spindle lifespan and processing precision. Matters that need
more attention are:
1). Grasp the cutter before running the spindle to avoid damaging the spindle.
2). During high-speeding chipping (8000rpm or above), use only G2.5 level cutters and shanks that have
been calibrated for dynamic balance. The reason is that vibration generated from centrifugal force may
damage the spindle bearing and rapidly wear out the cutter.
3) Balance tolerance for the shank and the cutter combination is affected by the following three factors:
rotation speed of the cutter, balance tolerance of the spindle, and weight of the shank. Therefore, using
a shorter cutter with a smaller diameter for high-speed chipping is advantageous in terms of spindle
vibration, temperature increase, thermal deformation, and processing precision.
4) The geometric shape of the cutter blade has an effect on cutter abrasion. Increase the angular
backlash of the blade can reduce abrasion due to scratches. Suitable cutter materials can also minimize
abrasion during high-speed processing; for example, cermet, tin or tic coated carbide cutters have
longer lifespan than conventional cutters. Ceramic (Si

) cutters are better than cermet cutters.
5) Perform another dynamic balance calibration after combining the cutter and the shank together. The
dynamic balance standard should be G2.5 or above.
