There are two types of milling strategies: climb and conventional. The first strategy is when the direction of the cutter revolution coincides with the direction of the work table feed. With climb milling, the tool enters the workpiece with a hit and exits the workpiece slowly with minimum material (at the surface that is created after machining).

Mar 14, 2012With reinforced ceramic cutting tools, the objective in machining is to generate high temperatures ahead of the cutting tool to soften or plasticize the workpiece material. That facilitates the removal of material and a reduction in cutting forces. The ideal cutting temperature in nickel alloy is about 1,800 degrees F, for example.
