Machining stainless steel, commonly used in the process, pharmaceutical and oil & gas industries

Checking emulsion % on the machine to keep the friction down is very important when machining stainless. Controlling the swarf is key in any application. Medium to higher surface speeds (lower if more exotic F51/F55 Duplex) and grade of insert and geometry are key. Tooling tends to be sharper and coatings more slippery for better swarf control.
