Traditional end mill designs select equal spacing between the teeth. With four teeth, for example, the angle between each tooth is 90 degrees. This equal spacing is also called constant pitch. As an alternative, it is possible to apply unequal teeth spacing. Today’s cutting tool manufacturers offer many options with this unequal spacing. The motivation for these alternate designs is often reduced potential for chatter, a self-excited vibration that can occur in milling and, therefore, incr
