SB40 | HB10 | HB10S | BC710 | BC725
The cutting data standard values started are recommendations which have to be adapted to the operating conditions, due to variables such as tool lenght, machine condition, workpiece stability and coolant. See " Advice on machining problems " for optimization tips.
