10:1 ratio tools for high speed machine

[kyleb77]

We are having a bit of trouble kellering deep pocket walls with tools that have 10:1 ratio length to diameter. Does anyone know what tool holders are more rigid. Deflection is happening even at slow feedrates. Spindle will go 24000 rpm max. We tried a .500 endmill .120 radius 10:1 ratio reduced tapered shank and even at 20 ipm we had alot of deflection. Any help we be greatly appreciated

How is this related to NX? You may get a more appropriate response in a machining-related forum rather than a CAD forum.
