M/Min to SFM Calculator

Formula

The formula to calculate the speed in Surface Feet per Minute (SFM) from Meters per Minute (M/Min) is:

\[ SFM = M/Min \cdot 3.28084 \]

Where:

\( SFM \) is the Speed in Surface Feet per Minute.
\( M/Min \) is the Speed in Meters per Minute.
3.28084 is the Conversion Factor from Meters to Feet.

What is M/Min to SFM?

M/Min to SFM is a conversion from meters per minute to surface feet per minute. These are both units of speed used in machining to denote the speed at which a cutting tool is moving across the surface of the material being cut. The conversion is often necessary because different machines and tools may use different units of measurement.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Speed in Meters per Minute (M/Min): 100

Using the formula to calculate the Speed in Surface Feet per Minute:

\[ SFM = 100 \cdot 3.28084 = 328.08 \]

This means that the speed for this example is 328.08 SFM.
