Just looking for some moderately aggressive speeds and feeds for milling 304. We are getting the job done but I think we can run faster… currently running
2295rpm at 9 ipm with a 3/8 4 flute

What coolant are you using? Maybe some depth of cut? I’d love to help does seem kind of slow. Using a coated tool?
Coolant, i cant really even think of what it is. just some cheap stuff i am sure. depth of cut is about a quarter inch.
the job is already done. I’m really just looking for what other people run.
Say if you rough out some big block of 304. what speeds and feeds would you run to rough it out with an endmill? chip load and sfm. just looking for generic numbers that arent mind numbingly slow
