CNC Feed Rate & Chip Load Calculator

Calculate CNC feed rate (mm/min), spindle RPM, chip load per tooth, and number of flutes for machining and PCB milling.

CNC Feed Rate & Spindle RPM Calculator
Formulas & Machining Physics

Spindle Speed: N = (Vc × 1000) / (π · D) RPM
Feed Rate: F = N × fz × Z mm/min

Example: D = 6 mm at Vc = 150 m/min requires 7958 RPM spindle speed.
