Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] DEEP POCKET MILLING

Is the part going to be milled via CNC?
If so, I'd use a shell end mill and use the circular pocket milling
command...do the whole boring operation in one step.

>I WILL SOON BE HAVING TO MAKE A PART THAT IS 12 X 6 X 6.250 DEEP. THE PART

IS ALUMINUM 70-75. ANY WAYS MY QUESTION IS IT HAS ALMOST THE ENTIRE CENTER
BORED OUT, AND THE BORE GOES ALL THE WAY THROUGH. BEFORE I GET STARTED I AM
HOPING SOMEBODY WILL GIVE ME SOME ADVICE ON TOOLING AND ALSO HOW YOU THINK
YOU WOULD GO ABOUT DOING IT.
