    <description>&lt;P&gt;Have a look at the chip load this is more important than anything else using an 0 flute gives you the slow feed high RPM option as you can move slower and get the same chip load, with routers you have to think more about chip load as you can eat plastics or melt it in under a second.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi everyone,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I was hoping if someone could help me in selecting good tools for machining polysyrene foam (expanded) in Fusion and also how can i minimise the machining time. And how can i justify those slected parameters as from the manufactrure module i also have to machine it in real. So i am open to ideas. As of now am going crazy about the rpm and feed that i could use because higher spindle speed or feed rate might burn the foam.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;thanks in advance....&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Cheers!!!!!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hello, can you give us a rough estimate of the size of the work piece, machine type, max rpm?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey Matt,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My design deals with a 150 mm x 150 mm with thickness 80 mm. I can go upto 15000 rpm. Any ideas with this????&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I hope the design (screenshot) gives you a better idea..&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;From what I've found online, you should run 15K rpm, use like a 2 flute HSS (something very sharp) and you want to be pretty fast with your feeds. Is it like solid foam or like the bead type? (XPS/EPS)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I found this chart online:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="cap.PNG" style="width: 999px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/809021iACC311F38143BA3C/image-size/large?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="cap.PNG" alt="cap.PNG" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I hope this helps!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;i am working with high density EPS. my machien has restriction of 3600 mm/min feed rate so i have to use spindle speed accordingly. I found the exact same PDF of that screenshot&amp;nbsp;&lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://forums.autodesk.com/html/@416C5D03CBAC068C640E797C3026DD93/emoticons/1f603.png" alt=":grinning_face_with_big_eyes:" title=":grinning_face_with_big_eyes:" /&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But i have to justify it my supervisor too.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;You have been a great help thanks. Do message me if found anything.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Cheers!!!!!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;if you max out at 51 in/min then your RPM would be around 2K to keep the same feed/tooth&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Try with a single flute or 0 flute&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;hey,&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Even i am thinking to work with single flute mill. I have two kins of surface plane and one curved surface. So iwas thinking single 1/8" flute end mill and 6mm ball nose for curved surface.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;But i was thinking if i can use ball use for whole process..//Will that sam eme some time ?????&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Cheers!!&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Thats sounds good and it maches with what i have reseacrhed....I may have to experiment with some other speed and measure the surface finish.....&lt;/P&gt;</description>
