3-flute cutter / good old 0.001" chipload?

I always forget some data 
So a hefty 0.004" chipload…I need to get me some of those Datron single flute cutters to try that someday.

Yep it’s quite a load on the spindle but if you never try you never know/learn

Ah, but I see you have linear rails. I’m not sure my V-wheels would enjoy that 0.1mm chipload so much.

Yup - machine load is much worse than spindle load.

Datron 4-1 are simply magical! Pretty jealous you have that 14mm SF, bet it runs smooth!
Do you have any tips for high load high rpm machining? Toolpath tips?

Yes i really like Datron and for me in Europe it’s not more expensive than carbide3d’s.
So now the answer to that question, I have just gone by the Datron default settings and scaled down to my spindle power and from there by feel( eyes and ears) I like to have silent cuts so to speak. Light and fast seems to be the way to go. @Vince.Fab it’s actually you that have guided me along this path 
.
Oo and I have burnt a lot 
on the way.
