Router cut composite – ideas?
Getting this issue when cutting into 3mm Alupanel, front face is perfect (the side of the sheet which is face down on the bed), but this side seems to have the ali pulled back, very evenly and uniform, as oppose to cut.
Cutting speeds are all where they should be (20,000 revs, 20 mm/s feed and 10 mm/s plunge), brand new bit, 3mm upward spiral flute, no obvious movement in the material (and even if there was I don’t think it would cause this), sent cutter round both ways and makes no difference.
Been cutting intricate Perspex & Foam shapes out today without issue (with a different tool of course).
Does seem like an issue between the tool and tool path that’s causing the ali to be dragged upwards rather than cut through but not sure why :rollseyes:
