Roughing vs. Finishing End Mill: How Do They Differ?
Roughness on the surface is caused by scallop marks similar to saw teeth. The feed rate is the only factor directly responsible for surface roughness other than tool geometry. The surface finish of a product can be negatively affected by a higher feed rate. A higher depth of cut also degrades surface finish and machining accuracy.

Feeds and Speeds for cutting graphite?
I need to cut 264 inches, that's 22 feet, of slot .010" wide in Poco 3 graphite. Normally I cut details on a CNC mill using miniature carbide end mills, but the thought of trying to cut that much slot with a .010" end mill leaves me cold, so I plan to use a slotting saw. I have no idea what to use for feed and speed.

Machining Guide for Engineering Plastics
Two flute end mills, face mills and shell mills with inserts as well as fly cutters can be used. Climb milling is normally recommended to help reduce heat by dissipating it into the chip, and melting and poor surface finishes are minimised. See table below for tool geometry, cutting speeds and feeds. Drilling
