Density of Graphite vs Tool Wear Rate: How Graphite Density Affects CNC Tool Life
We recently worked on a project where a client milled two seemingly identical graphite grades. They ran the same CNC equipment, identical cutting parameters, and the exact same diamond-coated graphite end mill. Yet, tool wear rates varied dramatically. One grade left the cutting edge intact, while the other caused rapid edge wear and micro-chipping, compromising […]
