Feeds speeds and Parting off with the Orac
Posted: Sat 25 Nov , 2023 15:18 pm
Hi folks,
I have my Orac running off linuxcnc with most of the original electronics.
It cuts quite well in alu, steel and ss using carbide inserts but I cannot get it to part off any material successfully.
Have tried 1.5-3mm carbide and 1.5mm hss blades but the tool always ends up digging in and breaking the tip of and damaging the tool and/or work piece.
Any recommendations for parting off with the standard multifix tool post arrangement?
Thanks
