Workpiece clamping Sufficient workpiece clamping is very important on stationary machines.


Insufficient clamping can reduce both the cut quality and tool life considerably.
Panels can be held in place with vacuum clamping, but sometimes additional
mechanical clamping is required.
Small and and arched workpieces in particular require special jigs or clamping
devices which must be made by the customer or sourced from specialist suppliers.

Chip removal For optimum chip removal, tools with predominantly or only positive shear cut should
be used. Check there is sufficient workpiece clamping.

Machining deep slots Cutting lock mortises in door production.

Displacement
0.3 — 0.4

Reducing the slot cutting width by approx 0.1 mm per stroke reduces the risk of
breakage as the tool does not touch the side of the slot with the full length of the tool.

5. Routing 5.2 Jointing, rebating and bevelling

Application parameters RPM/feed speed


The recommended RPM and feed speeds are detailed in the diagrams next the tool
tables.

Information Smooth cutting results can only be achieved with tools having a continuous cutting
edge. Spurs are required when rebating solid wood.

Workpiece clamping Sufficient workpiece clamping is very important on stationary machines.

Insufficient clamping can reduce both the cut quality and tool life considerably.
Panels can be held in place with vacuum clamping, but sometimes additional
mechanical clamping is required.

Small and arched workpieces in particular require special jigs or clamping devices
which must be made by the customer or sourced from specialist suppliers.

5. Routing 5.3 Face milling and finishing

Application parameters RPM/feed speed


The recommended RPM and feed speeds are detailed in the diagrams next the tool
tables.

Information Smooth cutting results can only be achieved with tools having a continuous cutting
edge.
In order to obtain a score-free finish during face milling, the machine spindle must be
exactly vertical to the machine table. The larger the diameter of the planing cutter, the
higher the risk of scoring and tool marks on the workpiece surface due to angular
misalignment.

Workpiece clamping Sufficient workpiece clamping is very important on stationary machines.

Insufficient clamping can reduce both the cut quality and tool life considerably.
Panels can be held in place with vacuum clamping, but sometimes additional
mechanical clamping is required.

Small and arched workpieces in particular require special jigs or clamping devices
which must be made by the customer or sourced from specialist suppliers.

Working step/Application Profiling (jointing, bevelling, rounding, panel raising and decorative grooves).

Workpiece material Softwood and hardwood [HS, HW].


[recommended cutting material] Chipboard and fibre materials (MDF, HDF etc.), uncoated, plastic coated, veneered
etc. [HW].
Plywood [HW].
Duromers [HW].
Plastomers [HS, HW].
Solid surface material (Corian, Varicor etc.) [HW].
Decorative laminates (HPL-compact laminate, Trespa etc.) [HW].
Non-ferrous metal (Aluminium, copper etc.) [HS, HW].

Machine Stationary routers with/without CNC control, CNC machining centres.


Milling machines with spindles to mount shank tools.

Operation For conventional and climb cut operations.

Recommendation Solid wood along grain: climb cut.


Solid wood across grain: conventional cut.

Technical features Cutterhead with replaceable and shapeable knives or ProfilCut Q system cutterheads
for machining panels and decorative grooves.

Solid wood along grain 0.3 – 0.5
Solid wood across grain 0.25 – 0.35
Chipboard/MDF 0.3 – 0.5
Plywood 0.25 – 0.35

Calculation formula: vf = fz . n . Z / 1000

Workpiece clamping Sufficient workpiece clamping is very important on stationary machines.

Insufficient clamping can reduce both the cut quality and tool life considerably.
Panels can be held in place with vacuum clamping, but sometimes additional
mechanical clamping is required.

Small and arched workpieces in particular require special jigs or clamping devices
which must be made by the customer or sourced from specialist suppliers.

Technical features Tools for portable routers are:

Straight routers: HS solid


HW tipped
HW solid
HW turnblade
DP tipped
(Only for special applications with known workpieces).

Profile routers: HW tipped


DP tipped
(Only for special applications with known workpieces).

Application parameters RPM


Recommended RPM for routing and boring tools on portable router machines:

Recommended RPM
n [min-1]
Dowel drill 3000 – 9000
Hinge drill 3000 – 9000
Router cutter with cylindrical shank 18000 – 30000
Router cutter with internally thread shank 16000 – 24000
Turnblade router cutter WL 101 1 16000 – 18000
Profile cutters HW tipped 18000 – 27000

The RPM speeds marked on the shank are mandatory.

Feed The manual feed speed of portable routers depends on the required cut quality and
machine load. To ensure proper intended use of portable router bits it is only allowed
to machine in conventional cut. Climb cut is not permissible.

Machining method Portable routers are usually used either with guide bearings or templates when
producing components in batches.
Router cutters with guide bearings are suitable for additional machining operations on
part finished components.
Tools without guide bearings are generally used with either a side stop or a guide rail
system.

5. Routing Signs of wear to HW cutting edges

Continuous wear of cutting edges


Mechanical abrasion causes continuous
wear of the cutting edge when machining
largely uniform materials.

The degree of permissible wear is deter-


mined by the required machined quality.
As a standard the width of wear VB of
0.2 up to maximum 0.3 mm should not
be exceeded.

Tipped tools must be resharpened


in good time to ensure the economic
efficiency of the tool.

Normal cutting edge wear after machining of spruce.


Local cutting edge wear
Irregular cutting edge wear is caused
when machining non-uniform panel
materials (e.g. coated chipboard or
laminate floors).

The highest abrasion occurs in the area


of more densely pressed surface layers
with higher sand content. This local
abrasion defines the quality of the
machined edge and determines the
end of the tool life.

If the machining situation allows axial


adjustment tool, a sharp section of cut-
ting edge can be used to machine the
edge, increasing the tool performance
time.

Cutting edge wear after machining chipboard.


Chemical abrasion
When machining materials with a high
tannic acid content (e.g. oak) the cutting
edge is subject to chemical abrasion in
addition to mechanical abrasion.

The cobalt binder material in the


tungsten carbide is etched away through
chemical abrasion, damaging the cutting
material.

Chemical influence – cutting edge wear – after machining of oak.

5. Routing Signs of wear to DP cutting edges

Cutting edge wear


Mechanical abrasion causes continuous
wear of the cutting edge when machining
largely uniform materials.

The degree of the permissible wear is


determined by the required machined
quality. As a standard the width of wear
VB of 0.2 up to maximum 0.3 mm should
not be exceeded.

Because of the long performance time,


resin can build up on cutting edges.

Performance time can be increased by


regular cleaning.

Cutting edge wear after machining GFK.


Cutting edge wear and small fractures
When machining some wood derived
and composite materials the cutting
edge is damaged by small fractures as
well as the usual wear.

This is usually caused by hard mineral


particles in the workpiece material.

Fractures at the cutting edge can also


be caused by high frequency machine
vibrations. Imbalanced tools and chucks,
worn spindles or machining close to a
resonant RPM may cause such vibra-
tions.

Cutting edge wear and fractures after machining HPL/CPL.


Cutting edge destruction
The cutting edge can be destroyed
when machining non-uniform materials
containing mineral or metallic particles.

These particles cannot be detected


prior to machining and limit the use of
DP tools for machining such materials.

Cutting edge destruction by metallic particles embedded in the workpiece.
