The fabricator and the erector must determine the most appropriate range of travel speeds for a particular application, rather than relying blindly on published product certs. However, following the methodology presented here by Regis Geisler of Lincoln Electric provides another possible blueprint on how this may be achieved.
To fully gain a competitive edge through five-axis capabilities, a shop must first decide what milling techniques, toolpaths, and coinciding cutting tools to use for these machining operations. This primer from Sandvik Coromant can help make those decisions.
