• BCSM shell mills allow the unused corner of the APET/XPET inserts to be usedfor general face milling – this means you get 4 usable edges per insert instead of 2!
• CMEM end mills are perfect for chamfer milling, providing a free-cuttingpositive geometry for both 30˚ and 45˚ chamfering.

Dapra's high-performance cutters work best when allowed to work within their designedoperating parameters. Adhering to the following steps will ensure that you are getting themost from your investment.
1. Refer to the Feed and Speed Chart (see page 12) to find the recommended Surface Feet per Minute(SFM) and Feed per Tooth (FPT) at which to run your cutter, based on the material to be machined.
2. Use the following formula to determine the Revolutions per Minute (RPM) for your cutting tool:
(SFM x 3.82) / Tool Dia. = RPMExample: A 2" diameter tool operating at 900 SFM (900 x 3.82) / 2 = 1720 RPM
3. Use the following formula to determine the feed in Inches per Minute (IPM) to beprogrammed into the machine tool:
FPT x RPM x N (number of teeth in cutter) = FeedExample: A 5-flute cutter at .008" FPT (.008 x 1720) x 5 = 69 IPM
4. If the Width of Cut (WOC) < 1/2 the cutter diameter, use the feed rate compensationchart (below) to compensate for chip thinning.
After determining the percentage of WOC for the tool diameter, multiply the desired feed rate by thecorresponding factor shown in the chart. This will be the Adjusted Feed per Tooth (AFPT) resulting in atrue chip thickness of the desired amount.
Example: If using a 1" dia. end mill @ .100" WOC, the WOC = 10% of the cutter diameter. Using the chart above, the factor for the chip thickness = 1.7.If a chip thickness of .005" is desired, a feed rate of .0085" (.005 x 1.7) should be programmed into the machine tool.
or
Adjusted Feed per Tooth (AFPT) = desired chip thickness x chip thinning factor (from chart).

Hole Diameter Calculation
Smaller holes may be interpolated by predrilling.Typical recommended ramp angle is 1˚ or less.
Helical Interpolation for Larger Diameter Hole MakingLarger diameter hole making can be quick andeasy when a Square Shoulder Cutter is used incombination with Helical Interpolation. Thistechnique resembles thread milling in that all threeaxes (X, Y and Z) are in motion simultaneously. Itdiffers from thread milling in that the tool isintroduced into the material without a start hole ofany kind. The tool simply is positioned at the insidediameter of the hole to begin its helix from there,achieving complete material removal from the holeby ramping down to the final depth. This smoothoperation tends to avoid the high horsepower
consumption characteristic of large diameter hole making. The quick and easyprocess offers the added advantage of allowing many different hole sizes to begenerated with the same diameter tool. Hole size variation is all in the programming.

* Only one grade (except for aluminum) suggested. Contact Applications Specialist if first choice doesn't work.** Customer preference. Both are acceptable – see cutting edge differences above.
APET Geometry
Positive/negative cutting edge with T-land
Somewhat free-cutting; meant for higher chiploads (>.005" IPT); creates medium burr
Higher force due to negative edge; will deflect more than XPET
Higher heat generation than XPET; creates more heat at higher speeds
Very strong cutting edge; able to withstand more shock and interruptions
Longer edge life due to strong cutting edge; will roll more burr and wear out rather than chip out
XPET GeometryPositive cutting edge with a light hone andno T-land
Free-cutting, small burr; can run at lighterchiploads (>.002" IPT)
Lower force due to sharper edge; less deflection
Less heat generated due to positive edge
Weaker, due to edge sharpness; not able towithstand significant interruptions
Shorter, due to edge sharpness; may chip out if run too long

Technical Considerations• Always use anti-seize compound on screws.
• Thoroughly clean pocket at each insert change.
• Change insert screw every 10 inserts.
• Use the shortest-length tool holder (end mill holder) formaximum rigidity. The shank of the cutting tool should beup inside the machine spindle taper whenever possible.
• Use tool holders appropriate for roughing operations: endmill holders and power chucks are recommended; colletsare not recommended.
Recommendations• Square Shoulder milling allows heavier Depths of Cut
(DOC), but Dapra recommends that no more than 2/3 ofthe insert length should be engaged to reduce the chancefor screw breakage.
• Although the cutter is capable of the heavier cut, take careto allow for the machine tool's capabilities in horsepowerand rigidity.
• Utilize as much of the cutting edge per pass (DOC) as possible, to get the most metal removalwithin the insert's tool life.
• Feed rates should not go significantly below or above the recommended ranges (see page 12),or premature failure can occur.
• Square Shoulder tools can not plunge; instead, use up to a 2° ramp angle for full diameter cut.Greater ramp angles possible with partial width cut.
• Climb milling is recommended whenever possible.
• Use the larger corner radii for the strongest cutting edge during roughing applications.
• Compensate for radial chip thinning (see chart on page 8) when Width of Cut (WOC) is less than50% of the cutter diameter.
• Because our Square Shoulder tools cut a true 90°, they are a good choice for a wide rangeof finishing applications.
• Use Coarse Pitch cutters for slotting cuts or when cutting pressure needs to be reduced; use Fine Pitchcutters for lighter profiling cuts or when feed rates can be maximized.
• Most of Dapra's high-performance grades run best without coolant. Coolant in most milling applicationscreates a high potential for thermal shock, which can produce premature, and sometimes catastrophic,failure. Use air pressure to provide adequate cooling and chip evacuation.
• For long-reach applications, utilize the Carbide Core cutting tools for increased rigidity and reduced chatter.

SQUARE SHOULDERRecommended Cutting Speeds
The parameters provided are suggested operating parameters. Actual speeds and feeds will depend on many variables,such as rigidity, workpiece hardness, tool extension, machine accuracy, Depth of Cut, etc. Start at the middle of the SFMrange and the low end of the IPT range. Next, increase IPT to optimize productivity and tool life. Higher SFM will providehigher output but will reduce tool life. Try different combinations to find the parameters that best suit your needs.
