RADIAL CHIP THINNING
In a Milling operation when the depth of a cut is less than half
the diameter of the tool, you can use the Radial Chip Thinning
to determine a new, faster and more efcient Chipload or Feed/
Tooth value.
Radial Chip Thinning –
Based on Feed per Tooth, Tool Diameter and Cut Depth
Calculate Radial Chip Thinning value with a Feed Per Tooth of
0.15 millimeters, a 25 millimeter Tool Diameter and a Cut Depth
of 2.5 millimeters:
