conversly so on a cnc mill , climb milling is the preferred method .
spindle and axis loads are a lot less doing it this way.
think of the dynamic of climb milling as opposed to conventional
it's biggest chip load is at entry then diminishes at exit , conventional just the opposite
when i served my apprentiship conventional was the way to do it
then along came cnc's which changed that
