Emil,
In the German Company Micon Drilling GmbH, we milled a Part on a WFL Mill-turn Machine with iMachining 3D.
This Part has 5 Pockets. Each pocket has an overall length of 980 mm, a maximum width of 106 mm and a maximum Depth of 84 mm.

The Material of the part is 1.6580 (30CrNiMo8).
The part is used for heavy duty vertical drilling at Oilfields.

The First Depth Cut was done with a 20 mm End mill, with 70 mm cutting length, to a depth of 61 mm, iMachining Level = 6
The Second Cut was done for the Rest with also a 20 mm End mill, with 90 mm cutting length,  iMachining Level = 4

The former Milling Time was over 24 hours for all 5 Pockets.

The actual time with iMachining 3D is about 10 hours (59% saving).

Mit besten Grüßen / Best Regards
