A material removal rate is a measure of how much volume of material per unit time is being removed from a stock piece of material, typically on a milling or similar CNC machine.

Bridge reamers are used to enlarge, align, and smooth out holes in structural materials like steel. They are commonly employed in construction projects, particularly in the creation of bridges, buildings, and large machinery, where precise hole alignment for bolts and rivets is essential.

CNC machines aim to have the highest possible material removal rate while continuing to produce accurate and precise parts.

Bridge reamers typically have a tapered point, which helps guide the tool into misaligned or undersized holes, making them easier to start. They are designed for heavy-duty applications and can handle tougher materials compared to standard reamers, which are often used for more precise and lighter tasks.

Bridge reamers are designed to handle a variety of materials, particularly those used in heavy construction and metalworking. The materials reamed with bridge reamers are typically tough and durable, requiring the reamer to be made of high-quality materials to maintain precision and longevity. Here are some of the common materials that are reamed using bridge reamers:

Enter the radial depth of cut, axial depth of cut, and feed rate into the calculator to determine the material removal rate.

Bridge reamers are specialized cutting tools designed for enlarging and aligning holes in structural materials. They are crucial in construction and heavy machinery applications where precise hole alignment is necessary for the integrity and safety of structures.

To calculate material removal rate, multiply the radius depth of cut by the axial depth of cut, then multiply this result by the feed rate.
