Facing Aluminum on Avid CNC Router – REVISITED!

Robert Cowan

November 23, 2023



In this video I revisit my previous look at facing on the Avid Pro CNC Router. I take your suggestions, tweak the settings, and show you the results!

I needed a solution for facing aluminum on my Avid CNC router. Traditional end mills are too slow, fly cutters can’t spin that fast, and spoilboard cutters aren’t made for aluminum. I reached out to Datron and they sent me their 0068444, which is a 2 flute 20mm facing end mill. The results were very good.
