I have a customer who needs some text and graphics (line art) milled into an aluminum plate. The depth of cut is .015", I'm using a down spiral .030" bit and my max. spindle speed for my machine is 18000. I've done some tests with a over the counter bit about the same diameter, ran it at 10ipm and got decent results. With a Kyocera Micro Tools bit, what do you think would be a good place to start with my machine parameters and the material. Aluminum is 1100 H24 .040" thick. (Is there a better section to post this in?)
Thank you
