So far I've tried the translated speeds, but with a depth increment of 0.015". The result was melted plastic stuck to the bit, to the point where I'll have to melt the plastic to remove it.
I also tried a cut feedrate of 60 in/min with depth increment of 0.015" which resulted with less buildup. The only buildup was stuck to the plastic and not the bit, but not a clean cut. This was cut short when path varied from previous path cuts causing the machine unneeded stress.
