Good Day All.
I am looking for advice regarding buying new tools for my cnc router/mill.
Upto now I have just been buying my tools (endmills) etc, from eBay.
I have now opened a credit account with Cutwel Limited. (http://www.cutweltools.co.uk)
The main materials I work with are, Aluminium, Plastics, PCB's.
I order most of my PCB tools from MegaUK (http://www.megauk.com).
Being new to CNC, I don't know what type tools or coating of the tools would be best suited to my jobs.
Here is a few of the coating options from there milling cutters range.
K2 Carbide.
Uncoated Carbide.
X-Power Carbide.
Jet-Power Carbide.
X-5070 Nano Carbide.
Tank Power.
V7 Mill.
Diamond Coated.
HSS 8% Cobalt.
Can you please advice.
