Feed Rate Calculator

Calculate Feed Rate





Formula

To calculate the Feed Rate (FR):

\[ FR = RPM \times CL \times T \]

Where:

What is Feed Rate?

The feed rate is the speed at which the cutting tool advances along the workpiece in machining processes. It is calculated by multiplying the spindle RPM, chip load, and number of teeth together. The feed rate is crucial for optimizing the machining process, ensuring efficient material removal, and maintaining tool life.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ FR = 1200 \times 0.01 \times 4 = 48 \text{ in/min} \]

The Feed Rate is 48 in/min.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ FR = 1500 \times 0.015 \times 3 = 67.5 \text{ in/min} \]

The Feed Rate is 67.5 in/min.
