Drillspeed calculator

When milling or drilling, or creating a tool path for a CNC machine the feed rate must be determined. Materials have rated surface speeds for a given type of cutter. The harder the material the slower the speed. Given the diameter of the tool and the surface speed, the RPMs of the spindle can be calculated. Then if the tooth load for the cutter is know, and the number of teeth, the feed rate can be determined.

Each plan will include the Vectric, for those using the Vectric software, design file with all of the toolpaths done for you, as well as the .SVG file. This file can be imported into any software of your choice and will come with all instructions, tool information, feeds and speeds you'll need to make setting up the toolpaths as easy as possible.
