Recommended Cutting Parameters (Reference)
Operation Cutting Speed (Vc) Feed (f) Depth of Cut (ap)
Roughing 120–220 m/min 0.25–0.45 mm/rev 2.0–6.0 mm
Semi-Finishing 150–260 m/min 0.15–0.30 mm/rev 0.5–3.0 mm
Actual cutting data depends on workpiece material, insert grade, coating, and machine rigidity.
