HSC MILLING (5-AXIS)
With respect to metalworking using CNC milling machines, the term high speed cutting (HSC) refers to a cutting process in which the cutting speed is many times greater due to extremely high tool rotation speed and feed speeds, but the resulting chip thickness is much less than in the case of normal cutting.
Areas of use:
The main areas of use for HSC technology are where there are strict requirements with respect to cutting performance and surface quality, in other words particularly in toolmaking and mould making.
The special characteristics of HSC are a material removal rate up to 30% greater, feed speeds up to 5 to 10 times higher and cutting forces up to 30 times lower. This allows thin-walled workpieces to be machined. The surface quality increases, which can bring about savings in the subsequent grinding operations that would otherwise be required. Distortion caused by heating during the cutting process is also prevented, because the cutting speed is greater than the thermal transfer speed, which means that the heat remains in the chips.
