Calculating Speeds & Feed Rates
Formulas
Spindle RPM
RPM= 4CS
D
CS material cutting speed in surface feet per minute/meters per minute
(sfm/mpm)
D diameter of the part turning or diameter of the cutter milling
Feed rates per inch
Lathe
Feed (in/min) =rpm x r
r = feed rate in inches per revolutions (ipr) usually 0.001-0.020 ipr
Mill
Feed = rpm x T x N
T= chip load per tooth
N= number of teeth on cutter
Feed rate (metric)
Lathe
Feed (mm/min) = rpm x r
r = feed rate in mm per revolution
Mill
Feed = rpm x T x N
T = chip load per tooth
N = number of teeth on cutter
