- While many factors impact the outcome of a machining operation, one often overlooked factor is the cutting tool’s helix angle. The Helix angle of a tool is measured by the angle formed between the centerline of the tool and a straight line tangent along the cutting edge. Join the Cutting Tool Counselor, Don Grandt in episode 4 of In The Loupe TV to learn about helix angles!

dude knows what he is talking about (refreshing...)
excellent video!
Honestly so grateful you guys are talking about things that are 100% relevant to me.
Thanks for watching.. Stay tuned for some more great content.
You guys are doing a great job on the format. Keep the tech info coming, please! I wish more manufacturers understood their customer base as well as you guys.
We are trying to do our part to teach a person to fish vs giving out Fish! LOL
Don,
Thankful for u for such wonderful sessions..
Often re visiting your videos to refresh my understanding about the cutting tools..
Thanks a ton!!
I mean Don.
Thanks for the info! It's one of those topics we machinists don't put into words, yet somehow seem to expect everyone to know haha.
Anything to help understand it better.
I had a huge 3 1/4 cl 4flute helix as my finisher . Squeeling like crazy!! Huge helix on it. Went to a more gradual and had nothing but rigidity and finish
High helix will also put more tool pressure and points of contact. Certain materials require a more strategic approach. By going 3.250 deep with a high helix just created too much! Thanks for the comment and watching.ctc
what about 37 deg "variable" helix? I hear that's a good choice for trochoidal style cut
Anything that is Variable, like Pitch or Helix will always produce a smoother finish and create less chatter. 37 Degree Variable Helix is a winner if used correctly.
I Never Ever Take Spring Passes. It Dulls the End Mill. I Machine a Lot of Heat treated D-2 60-62 RC. After 1 pass my E.M. is shot. My Tolerance is + or - .001. I go for broke right off the bat. If i do have to take .001 off, I have to Comp out .005 just to take .001. It's Scary. I have the same problem with surface grinding. Sometimes I machine CPM 10 V. You want to talk about a guarantee bad day at work. I hope Dave goes over Hard Milling.
Hard milling is coming up... Thanks for watching. Ctc
Good video and info but could have been half as long.
