The discussion centers on obtaining cutting speed and depth of cut information for ceramic cutting tools, particularly due to the lack of technical data from the manufacturer. Users suggest that technical data sheets typically provide necessary details, but the original poster faces challenges as their sister company lacks this information. Typical values for carbide-coated tools are mentioned, but caution is advised against using these for specific applications without proper data. Concerns are raised about the implications of a manufacturer not having safe cutting speed information, suggesting potential quality issues. The conversation highlights the importance of obtaining accurate technical specifications for effective tool performance.
