Tool Type

Any plans on adding diamond cut routers to the list of tools and operations?
Ran FS Wizard as a 10 flute solid end mill, but I do not really trust the results.
Would be nice to have this, albeit rare, option.
Thank you.

Hello,
There is no diamond cut bits in the tool list and that is for a reason.
It all depends on flute configuration, chip clearance and material being machined.

If you want to get safe speeds and feeds i would actually recommend calculating feeds using a one flute enemill tool type.

You should NOT use a 10 flute in this case because you will get too much of feedrate.

Also these kinds of bits can only be used on limited number of materials.

IMO its best to consult with manufacturer regarding such special tools.

Good luck
