Severe chatter and poor surface finishes were frustrating a firearms manufacturer. They were looking to produce a better machined finish while reducing costs. The part was a receiver made from 4140 (40HRC) on an Okuma machine with a CT40 spindle. The original tooling was a solid carbide end mill, 0.5", 7-flute, TIN.
