    Would help if you tell us exactly what it is that you need!
    Speed = how fast you are travelling?
    Feed = Speed at which the tool is moving through the cut...?
    RPM = how fast the spindle is going!
    Cheers
    Brian.

    That is my question, I want the formula because I want to apply it to any speed, for example if I use 300 rpm or 1500 what gonna be the feed or if I put F19. how much gonna be the speed for any material
    Thanks

    Well...

    In the METRIC World you can use the following formulae:

    RPM = [CS x 1000] / [Pi x Diam]

    Where CS = Cutting Speed in Metres per Minute
    Pi = 3.1416 (approx)
    Diam = Cutter Diameter in mm

    FEED = RPM x z x Fz

    Where RPM = Rev Per Minute (Formulae above)
    z = Number of Teeth (Flutes) on your cutter.
    Fz = Feed (in mm) per Tooth per Revolution.

    An Example:
    CS = 200m/min
    Diam = 40mm
    z = 6
    Fz = 0.3mm

    RPM = [1000 x 200] / [3.1426 x 40]
    = 200000 / 125.664
    = S1592 (rounded to nearest whole number)

    Feed = 1592 x 6 x 0.3
    = F2865.6

    Hope this helps.
    Cheers
    Brian.

    Well, since you guys are still calculating things in the dark age units... 10 fingers = Metric System, so much easier to count than in units of 12!

    RPM = [3.82 x CS] / Diam

    Where CS = Cutting speed in something called "Feet" per Minute
    Diam = Cutter Diameter (or shaft) in some unit called "Inches"

    So using previous example:
    CS = 656'/Min
    Diam = 1.5748"

    RPM = [3.82 x 656] / 1.5748 = S1591

    Same RPM but using weird screwed up units

    Formulae for Feed is the same! But expressed as feed in inches per minute.
    Cheers
    Brian.

    I do believe that the decimal time system was an epic failure....

    Dozenal rules!!!!!!!!!! (60pergross of the time, anyway)

    LOL yep I agree that the decimal clock is (was) crap... but at least telling the time is the same all around the world!
    Can't say the same for dimensions... imperial -> metric -> imperial gets screwed up all the time! (Just ask NASA where their Mars probe is... oh that's right they screwed up a conversion and lost how many millions of dollars worth of probe?)

    Cheers
    Brian.

    Hey at least I know how to spell "Australia!"
    As for our probe... Bend over!!!

    We might not have one up there, but it is NOT "Lost In Space!"

    Stupid Yanks!!

    I like that one, Bri

    We can look back at the first moon-walk, Aus saw it before them as well
    They even dumped "Space-Junk, sorry Lab, on us
