I am curious as to what speed to run a 1 3/4 end mill when surfacing a piece of aluminum round stockI have been cutting at around 2300 RPM and removing about .0300-.0500 each pass but my piece and tool are noticeably hot ( im cooling with an oil/water mixture at the point of contact) any suggestions? Thanks ahead of time for your answers!!!
I wouldn'tPut the drippings into a saucepan and go that wayThe foil pan will get very hot but not distribute heat wellIt can burn, it can burn your gravy, burn you, etc Happy Thanksgiving PS, if you have a large enough baking sheet, put that under the foil pan when you put the turkey in so you have something rigid to pick it up withA heavy turkey in a flimsy pan can get awkward.
Are you using an HSS tool or carbide? For aluminum, cutting speed (CS) for an HSS tool should be about 600fpm and 2820fpm for CarbideRPM CS 4 / dia For HSS, RPM 600 4 / 1.75 1370 For Carbide, RPM 2820 4 / 1.75 6450
You can but the pan will get very hot and the heat will be unevenI would add some water to the pan, scrape up the bits and transfer to a saucepan then make your gravy in the saucepan.
