Max Metal aluminum sheet cutting specs
Does anybody have experience with routing Max Metal sheets? Max Metal is a substrate of 2 very thin aluminum sheets separated by HDU core. The sheets are 4'x8' and 3mm thick (total thickness, the aluminum is much thinner).
I need to cut large numbers from this stuff. What do you recommend for the cutter and feed rate? I don't have vacuum hold-down, so I'm planning to leave an occasional tab in the bottom layer of aluminum to keep the cut-outs from shifting. Sound like a reasonable strategy?
Thanks!
