CNC Machining an aluminum part | Hermle C400 | SolidCAM | iMachining
Just Machining - 01
In this episode of “just machining“ I show you the first cnc machining operation of an aluminum part I had to do. With some nice iMachining paths, roughing, thread cold forming and milling, fine boring and much more!
The part has some critical tolerances, this is why you will sometimes see the same tool changed in twice. This is to have one pure roughing tool and a separate finishing tool.
⚠️ Please do not mill / drill aluminum dry! This is just for video reasons and will kill your tools and parts.
