    Below is the result of a design engraved into brass on a Roland EGX 600.

    The job is 50mm (2") diameter and was engraved using a 60 degree (included angle) cutter with a 0.2mm (0.008") Tip diameter. Spindle speed was 25,000 rpm and a feed rate of 2mm / sec (0.080" / sec).

    The detail is 1.5mm (0.060") deep and this was engraved in multiple Z level passes of 0.25mm (0.010") per pass.

    The material is free cutting brass and dosen’t need any coolant or lubrication.
