All, Pretty new here. I'd rather not step into a Syil V's Tormach debate. Being from the UK, I did review options / price & X4+ fell within my budget.

Situation

7075 T6 150 BHN
5000 RPM, 0.82 KWh, Feed rate 150-350 mm/min
YG1 10mm High helix 2 flute Carbide
HSM toolpath created with Fusion 360 - Adaptive clearing.
Flood with Alusol A

OMG! I couldn't get the chips to clear at a sufficient rate. They started to fill the fluid exit hole, creating huge metal hills on the bed. No matter what I tried (Air = bloody mess), had to stop the job. This was only a 65mm diameter pocket, 30mm deep. Ended up with a bucket of chips albeit nice looking ones.

1st time with HSM, was using Meshcam previously (It's really keen on using the bottom 2mm of the tool, almost always). So this amount of chip clearing is a new challenge really. Incidentally, spent more time cleaning up after a HSM job than the time that the job would have saved.

Question
I can't believe that this is a super new question, but are there alternative measures I can take to get the chips out quickly whilst using flood? Increase pressure, use air simultaneously? Go back to Meshcam? Other?
