Question:
When should the indexable inserts on the edge milling machine be changed/rotated (topic: wear)?
Answer:
- When the coating has worn away
- When the feed forces become too high to ensure a feed rate of 1 meter per minute
- When the edge/cutting edge is damaged (notches, sawtooth profile, breakouts, etc.).
