A thinned web drill will reduce cutting forces and allow increased feedrates.
How to machine glass mica ceramic.
Machine complicated shapes and precision parts from these glass mica ceramic bars in a fraction of the time it would take using other types of fired ceramic.
It is a hybrid glass ceramic and offers a unique combination of properties from both families of materials.
Cut down into the work.
Use a bonded silicon carbide type abrasive cut off wheel.
Wheel cutting is the most satisfactory method of cutting glass mica composites.
For the low to medium volume precision work macor is a material that even a modestly equipped shop can machine into precision ceramic parts.
Its good electrical and thermal resistance make it a common choice for heating and soldering fixtures.
Macor machinable glass ceramic can be machined with high speed steel tools but carbide tools are recommended for longer wear.
Macor machinable glass ceramic has the versatility of a high performance polymer the machinability of a metal and the performance of an advanced technical ceramic.
Machine complicated shapes and precision parts from this glass mica ceramic in a fraction of the time it would take using other types of fired ceramic.
Drills smaller than 1 5mm 062 should be machined dry.
Maintain sharp cutting edges to minimize chipping.
Machine wet with flood coolant or machine dry.
Carbide c2 drills are recommended for extended tool life.
Achieve the best results by using a water soluble coolant such as cimstar 40 pink especially formulated for cutting and grinding glass or ceramics.

Macor is a corning inc.
Cut across the grain whenever possible.
If available bonded diamond wheels are preferred.
