Abstract :
The analysis of the plastic injection mold market shows the interest of reducing milling costs; the improvement of mold steel machinability is one response to rough milling. The quantification of the gains offered by new mold steels requires the development of more accurate and suitable comparison methods to appreciate the response to rough milling with toric milling cutters. The methods proposed in this paper take into account more reliable tool-life criteria. Results of comparison tests are analysed from scientific, technological and economical points of view. Moreover, the deduced models lead to a better understanding of the respective roles of each parameter.
