13.2.4 Feed speed
For the correct feed speed, test routing with the same material properties is recommended in order to identify the appropriate working speed.
If the feed speed is too low, the routing tool could heat up too much and the material to be machined could discolour and, in the worst-case scenario, even ignite.
If the feed speed is too high, the router tool could be damaged and the routing result could be inaccurate.
13.2.5 Routing direction
The routing tool rotates in a clockwise direction.
Routing must always be done against the direction of rotation.
13.2.6 Set routing depth with end stop
Depending in the hardness of the material to be machined and the routing depth, routing in several stages is recommended:
Set the start position of the milling process with the highest end step of the revolver stop and depth stop.
Set the desired end position of the routing process with the lowest end stage of the revolver stop in combination with the depth stop.
Now, with the help of the revolver stop (1), the routing depth to be removed can be divided into max. 6 smaller ones, thus protecting material, tool and machine.
13.2.7 Routing depth with revolver stop
Depending on the hardness of the material to be machined and the routing depth, routing in several stages is recommended:
Turn the revolver stop (1) so that the depth stop (2) is positioned on the highest end step of the revolver stop.
Carry out a routing operation.
Turn the revolver stop further so that the depth stop is positioned on the middle end step.
