Calculating the proper milling feedrate ("travel speed") is crucial for a long lifetime of your bits. Check out this English tutorial. We are collecting our experiences with different settings.
Feeds and Speeds Calculators
- cnccookbook: "G-Wizard" calculators
- commercial software - free trials for 30 days, hobbyist version costs approx. $80
- online calculator only comes with values for metals
- "Feed and Speed wizard" web app
- seems like a neat tool for a metal mill but the spindle speeds (rpm) are too low for a CNC router
- kennametal.com web app
- also mostly useful for metal milling(?) - you'll need to know a thing or two about the required input parameters like "SFM" or "IPR" (depend on your material)
