Cutting data calculator
Choose turning or milling, then enter tool and material data. Results update as you type.
Choosing a material fills in a reference cutting speed for coated carbide tools. Adjust it to your tool maker's recommendation.
- Spindle speed n
- Feed rate Vf
- Metal removal rate Q
- Estimated cutting power Pc
- Cutting time
- Theoretical roughness Ra
The calculated speed exceeds the machine's maximum. Lower Vc or consider a machine with a faster spindle. Need a better-suited machine? Request a quote
Cutting power exceeds 80% of spindle power. Reduce depth of cut or feed, or consider a more powerful machine. Need a better-suited machine? Request a quote

- Results are theoretical reference values. Real conditions depend on the tool, machine rigidity, workholding and stock quality.
- Cutting power is estimated from typical specific cutting force kc for each material and excludes drive efficiency.
- When turning across a wide diameter range, use constant surface speed and set a maximum spindle speed limit.
