[QUOTE="CoolHandLuke, post: 322493, member: 4850"] well, length of the tool does matter. strategies are usually made for specific tools because the tool's deflection has been measured and accounted for. its not a huge deal to get new tools in the same sequence, but it does matter somewhat. it is highly unlikely that such precision calculations were used in the CAM that even a few mm of extra tool would put so much deflection in the tool that it would create catastrophic chipping. if anything i'd bet since this an imes machine, the vibration is in the machine itself. the 250 is the one that went AG style and put the spindle on its side. you mentioned imagine and hyperdent? is imagine your machine and cam reseller? if so, they really know their stuff but i've never known them to be that pedantic about tooling.
