The cutting speed range of NC Spiral Cutter is an important parameter, which directly affects the processing efficiency and processing quality.
Generally speaking, the cutting speed range of NC Spiral Cutter depends on multiple factors, including the material of the tool, the geometry of the tool, the properties of the material being processed, the processing requirements, etc.
For NC Spiral Cutter of different materials, the cutting speed range is different. For example, the cutting speed of NC Spiral Cutter made of high-speed steel is relatively low, generally in the range of tens of meters to more than one hundred meters per minute. The cutting speed of NC Spiral Cutter made of carbide can be higher, usually in the range of more than one hundred meters to several hundred meters per minute. For some special materials of NC Spiral Cutter, such as ceramic tools, cubic boron nitride tools, etc., the cutting speed can be higher, even up to several thousand meters per minute.
The geometry of the tool will also affect the cutting speed range. For example, NC Spiral Cutter with a larger helix angle can usually work at a higher cutting speed, because a larger helix angle can reduce cutting force and reduce cutting temperature, thereby increasing cutting speed. The NC Spiral Cutter with a smaller helix angle needs to work at a lower cutting speed to avoid excessive cutting force and high cutting temperature.
The properties of the material being processed are also an important factor affecting the cutting speed range. Different materials have different hardness, strength, toughness and other characteristics, and have different requirements for cutting speed. For example, for materials with lower hardness and better toughness, such as aluminum alloys and copper alloys, higher cutting speeds can be used for processing. For materials with higher hardness and greater strength, such as alloy steel and stainless steel, lower cutting speeds are required for processing.
Processing requirements will also affect the cutting speed range. For example, in the roughing stage, a higher cutting speed can be used to improve processing efficiency; while in the finishing stage, a lower cutting speed is required to ensure processing quality.
In short, the cutting speed range of the NC Spiral Cutter is a complex issue that requires comprehensive consideration of multiple factors. In practical applications, it is necessary to select a suitable NC Spiral Cutter according to specific processing tasks and requirements, and reasonably determine the cutting speed range to achieve the best processing effect.
