Amana Tool 46280-U CNC 2D and 3D Carving 6.2 Deg Tapered Angle Ball Tip x 1/32 Dia x 1/64 Radius x 1 x 1/4 Shank x 3 Inch Long x 3 Flute Solid Carbide Up-Cut Spiral Router Bit
- Specially designed for 2D and 3D CNC profiling and carving in plastic, aluminum & wood with CNC machines. The high-shear ball nose tips cut smooth 2D and 3D contours with reduced stepping. Some of Amana Tool carving tools, as you can appreciate have a very small diameter therefore any material chip-loads need to reflect that small size. It can however withstand RPM’s up to 60,000 RPMs. A directed air-blast to keep chips away along with cooling the tool and work piece are always welcome.
- Tools are manufactured with high balance that allows them to run up to 60,000 RPMs. Adjust your chip load and feed rate accordingly.
- Applications:
- A perfect bit for 3D carving
- Precision 2D and 3D large scale carving

- *A soft plastic cardboard made with super soft, super flexible PVC.
- **Expanded polypropylene (EPP) is a foam form of polypropylene.
- ***Ethafoam, Polyethylene, and Polylam are durable, flexible, closed-cell foams with excellent memory.
- Milling Plastics:
- In a milling application, all plastics tend to behave differently so attention must be paid first and foremost to heat input, as that greatly impacts surface finish and chip control.
- Suggested starting spindle speed might be 18,000 RPM, there needs to be some experimenting on the part of the programmer to best find an acceptable finish.
