Is the information in the Machining Data Handbook™ the same as the CUTDATA CD?
Volume one of the Machine Data Handbook and part of Volume two. Volume two also contains information on different machining processes, tool geometries, cutting fluids, and economics of machining. The CUTDATA CD has the same information contained in speed, feed depth of cut information found the both volumes of the Machining Data Handbook™ but not the machining process, cutting fluid, and economics of machining information found in Volume two process. CUTDATA includes additional cutting tool materials like coated carbide, ceramics, and diamonds for several machining processes. CUTDATA offers over 100,000 machining recommendations including 22 machining processes, 12 cutting tool materials, and more than 3,750 materials/conditions.
