cutter for MDF

[AdCNC]

Deannos, the cutters you linked are ok but tent to squeal a bit, regardless of feeds and speeds, i have found this to be down to the rake of the carbide cutter in this case none, i would suggest you have a play with a few of those the move on and get the similar one made by trend, this has a slight positive rake and cuts a lot nicer.

Yes, I should have mentioned that. Particularly for me the 6mm cutter squeals and breaks easily.
Another option is the 6mm single flute carbide cutters I keep going on about... they can potentially cause a problem as they are 'upcut' (spirals upwards) so could lift the surface of the MDF but try it and see. It's worked fine for me, plywood was ok with them too.
