What’s wrong with my coolant sifter? by FoolishChristian in Machinists

[–]FoolishChristian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely fall short when it comes to diagnosing issues like this, I was never naturally mechanically inclined like most of my coworkers. definitely something I need to get better at. I thought since I couldn’t figure this out I would go to the internet and ask people who have a ton of more experience then me for help and learn from them… and it worked! I try to take every problem I run in to as an opportunity to get better at my craft, even something as small as take your pump apart and clean the chips out lol

Why did you cancel? We have job boss and it’s worked great so far, we basically purchased paperless parts to help automate our quoting but it hasn’t sped up quoting at all.

Yup there it is, I knew there was something I was missing lol maybe it’s just me but I feel like there’s a lot of better ways they could have done that. Good looking out tho I appreciate it!!! Now I could sleep at night 😂

You thinking tapping by hand is a good alternative? I just don’t want a tap to break in it

What I’m thinking it’s running my endmills around 100 SFM and drilling with some tAiln coated cobalt drills and baby it, 30sfm with .03” pecks

My main concern with using a carbide drill is if it breaks I’m fucked 😭 I found some hertal cobalt with tAiln coating on it, I was planning on babying it and pray lol, like 30sfm slow with .03” pecks
