Hello!
I don't have access to a windows machine at the moment so I can't try the estimation software. Does anybody know what kind of speeds are possible when cutting wax?
For reference, what kind of processing time would I be looking at if I were trying to mill this in wax? http://icreate.rolanddg.com/iModela/Glo ... ndex.html/
Thanks in advance

Re: iModela wax cutting speed?
Hi,
I would suggest a good end mill would be able to cut one side in a few hours in wax. It depends if you want to change tool for the roughing/finishing paths.
If you just use a 1mm ball end tool, then the roughing would take a lot longer, but you can just walk away and leave it cutting.
Hope this helps
