I think CNC milling can give better results in some cases, Also how about combination of CNC and EDM? Send us design we will get back to you!

We are small business work on aluminum heat sink for electronics. We usually work work with EDM, but we are going to test new designs with CNC milling. I am looking for manufacturing consultation and prototyping service? Please reply

In CNC milling, the hardness of the material being milled, often measured by the Rockwell scale, influences the choice of milling tools. Harder materials require more robust milling tools, typically made of materials like carbide or cobalt, to withstand the stresses of cutting without wearing down quickly. Below is a simplified table showing the relation of material hardness to the corresponding milling tools:

Rockwell Hardness (HRC) Milling Tool Material
< 30 High-Speed Steel (HSS) 30-45 Cobalt (HSS-Co) 45-65 Carbide > 65 Diamond or CBN
This table is indicative and can vary based on specific milling conditions and tool quality.

It could be more helpful for me if you included the relation of Hardness(Rockwell number) with corresponding milling tools.
