here is a foil stamping die I made with my nomad
Material: magnesium
Tools: 1/8 two-flute carbide end mill (First roughing pass) 1/16 two-flute carbide end mill (second roughing pass to get the little details). Nomad #302 60 degree V cutter (finish pass)magnesium is much more forgiving than aluminum or brass. Speeds and feeds are about two to three times faster than aluminum settings, and step overs were all 50% of the tool diameter.
This project took a total of three and a half hours to complete. it is now producing product on the factory line.
I consider this a very big win for my little Nomad, as well as for myself!!!
