    Horace Doursther, whose reference was published [clarification needed] in Belgium which had the smallest foot measurements, grouped both units together, while J. F. G.

    SFM is a combination of diameter and the velocity of the material measured in feet-per-minute as the spindle of a milling machine or lathe. 1 SFM equals 0.00508 surface meter per second (meter per second, or m/s, is the SI unit of speed). The faster the spindle turns, and/or the larger the diameter, the higher the SFM.
