Took entirely too long to make that part. Hope it was only a handful that were made. Get aggressive. I could have done that in half the time. Stopping the spindle each tool change is REALLY bad.
Looks like bronze that's being cut. So the Inconal statement is mute. Look at the O.D. of the stock before it's cut. I could be wrong but dealt with tons and tons of bronze.
RPM's are little slow unless its inconel or Renee your cutting. Also get more use from that CNMG and use the VNMG to finish. I'm guessing you slowed it down because your not using coolant. Where I work though one pass and that insert is spent. One more pass and it has exploded.
First two passes on with the boring bar are cutting air! Not an economic use of the machine!!!

@kasplode Might have just been a demo hopefully, but still i agree dosent show the full capability of this machine

right on kasplode about rh tooling. also no need to go to machine home at every m6. and get that chip load up, let's go!

Nice machine! Wish I had a lathe, I only have a mill.

Also, buying RH tools throws the chip DOWN, into the conveyor. Why blow chips UP with left-handed tooling?
