TIP: When working with plastics with good machinability, use the cutting parameters for aluminum up until the point that the plastic melts.

Next lookup the recommended feed per revolution for the equivalent size drill bit in Table 2 (fr ≈ 0.006 in/rev) and calculate the feed rate using Equation 3:

TIP1: Recommended peck depth when drilling less than 3xD (e.g. 3 drill diameters) with flooded coolant is one drill diameter, or when applying oil manually, or under low pressure, is 50% of drill diameter.

Note that these speed and feed values are guidelines assuming proper (flooded) lubrication, workpiece stiffness and depth of cut.  When applying oil manually (as in the lab), scale the feed and speed back to 60%, so N = 570 rpm and f ≈ 18 in/min (final answer).  Note also this problem assumes we peripheral milling versus plunge milling (since we never teach the students the latter in lab).

Example 2B: Calculate the speed and feed for a 1/2″ diameter, 3 flute carbide endmill if peripheral and plunge cutting in aluminum using a CNC milling machine in lab.

TIP2: When drilling deeper holes (> 3xD) without high pressure TSC (thru spindle coolant), reduce spindle speed an additional 50%.

Every metal cutting operation requires selection of proper cutting parameters for success.  As a DML TA, you need to understand basic calculations that will allow the tools you use to work as intended.

The Senior Software Regulatory/Quality Systems Analyst – Medical Device and Combination Products will provide overall support and management of client needs in the area of software quality system design and management. This support shall assure that the client will achieve compliance with specified objective(s) in terms of regulations and standards conformance, as well as, operational process effectiveness and efficiency. In addition, senior analyst shall assure the appropriate documentation and testing is identified for regulatory submissions.

Provide leadership to RQMIS employees in the area of project management and quality systems. Support the development/ implementation/management of tools for RQMIS employees in performing their duties.

Note that these speed and feed values are guidelines assuming proper (flooded) lubrication, workpiece stiffness and depth of cut.  When learning how to use the CNC, always start lower (around 60% on the spindle speed and feedrate override buttons) and work your way up as you gain confidence or purchase your own tools (lol).

TIP: Reamers should generally be run at half the spindle speed and twice the feed per revolution of the equivalent sized drill bit.

Example 4: Calculate the speed and feed for a 1″ diameter, 6 flute HSS annular cutter in ¼” thick aluminum on a manual milling machine in the lab.

TIP1: Since annular cutting is a plunging operation, it should generally be performed at 75% of the speed and 25% of the feedrate of the calculated peripheral cutting parameters (as with endmill plunging).

Note that these speed and feed values are guidelines assuming adequate (flooded) lubrication, workpiece stiffness and drill depth less than 3 drill diameters (0.75″).  When applying oil manually (as in the lab), scale the feed and speed back to 60%, so N = 900 rpm and f = 3.6 in/min (final answer).

TIP: Countersinking should generally be performed at 25% of the speed and the same feed per revolution as the equivalent sized drill.

Note that these speed and feed values are guidelines assuming adequate (flooded) lubrication, workpiece stiffness and drill depth less than 3 drill diameters (0.75″).  When applying oil manually (as in the lab), scale the feed and speed back to 60%, so N = 450 rpm and f = 3.6 in/min (final answer).

As you can see Acetal (Delrin) is one of the most machinable plastics and nylon is four times less machinable (which is why it should usually be avoided!).

RQMIS’ mission is to bring about safe and effective medical devices and biotechnology products by assisting companies in navigating the regulatory process and addressing governmental requirements using the most efficient and effective processes during the premarket and post-market product phases. We provide all of our employees with equal opportunities for advancement, good working conditions, while paying competitive wages.

First, lookup the recommended surface speed in Table 1 for a 1” HSS endmill cutting aluminum (V ≈ 250 ft/min) and calculate the spindle speed from Equation 2 using the aforementioned 75% speed reduction:

TIP: Plunging should generally be performed at 75% of the speed and 25% of the feedrate of the calculated peripheral cutting parameters.

Example 2A: Calculate the speed and feed for a 1″ diameter, 4 flute HSS endmill in aluminum using a manual milling machine in lab.

TIP: IF this was being performed on a CNC lathe, typical parting feed rates vary between 0.001 in/rev (for steels) and 0.005 in/rev (for plastics).  But remember, do NOT use the power feed when parting on a manual lathe unless you own the machine!

Note: since applying oil manually, scale the speeds back to 60%, so NALUM ≈ 1425 rpm and NSTEEL ≈ 570 rpm (final answer).  Note these are MAXIMUM values and lathe chuck safety must take precedence; spinning the lathe chuck at 570 rpm is about the upper limit of what we safely do in the lab, so for smaller or easier to machine workpieces, DO NOT EXCEED 600 RPM regardless of the calculation results, unless you are running a collet chuck.

Next, lookup the recommended feed per tooth (chipload) in Table 3 (ft ≈ 0.004 in/tooth) and calculate the feed rate using Equation 3:

The physical demands described here are representative of those that must be met by a teammate to successfully perform the essential functions of this job. Reasonable accommodations may be made to enable individuals with disabilities to perform the essential functions.

A general rule of thumb for materials which are strong enough to support the drilling process is that fr is between 1 - 3% of the drill diameter, depending on the material strength.

First, lookup the recommended surface speed in Table 1 (V ≈ 625 ft/min) and calculate the spindle speed from Equation 2:

TIP2: Do not plunge an annular cutter at a feedrate less than 0.001 ipt (inch per tooth) in strain hardening materials like 304 stainless or titanium.

Note: when applying oil manually, scale the feed and speed back to 60%, so N ≈ 420 rpm and f ≈ 4.8 in/min (final answer).  This is close enough to 500 rpm that I would first try this tool at the low end of high range with good oil application and see how it goes.

To ensure equal employment opportunities to qualified individuals with a disability, RQMIS will make reasonable accommodations for the known disability of an otherwise qualified individual unless undue hardship on the operation of the business would result.
