  2. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    Feed rate (also often styled as a solid compound, feedrate, or called simply feed) is the relative velocity at which the cutter is advanced along the workpiece; its vector is perpendicular to the vector of cutting speed. Feed rate units depend on the motion of the tool and workpiece; when the workpiece rotates (e.g., in turning and boring), the ...

  3. Reamer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reamer

    The high cobalt versions are very resistant to heat and thus excellent for reaming abrasive and/or work hardening materials such as titanium and stainless steel. Tungsten carbide More expensive than high-speed steels. Hardness up to HRC 92. Will outlast high-speed steels (usually by about 10:1) when reaming steel. Required to ream hardened ...

  4. Machinist calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machinist_calculator

    A machinist calculator is a hand-held calculator programmed with built-in formulas making it easy and quick for machinists to establish speeds, feeds and time without guesswork or conversion charts. Formulas may include revolutions per minute (RPM), surface feet per minute (SFM), inches per minute (IPM), feed per tooth (FPT). A cut time (CT ...

  5. High-speed steel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_steel

    High-speed steel (HSS or HS) is a subset of tool steels, ... taps and reamers. 1.3343 is the equivalent numeric designation for M2 material identified in ISO 4957. ...

  6. Chamber reamer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamber_reamer

    Chamber reamers are typically made of high speed steel and require lubrication during the cutting operation. A chamber reamer, regardless of pilot design, will operate most efficiently at speed of 200 to 300 RPM, and feed rate just fast enough to avoid chatter.

  7. Surface feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_feet_per_minute

    Surface feet per minute (SFPM or SFM) is the combination of a physical quantity (surface speed) and an imperial and American customary unit (feet per minute or FPM). It is defined as the number of linear feet that a location on a rotating component travels in one minute. Its most common use is in the measurement of cutting speed (surface speed ...

  8. Drill bit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drill_bit

    High-speed steel (HSS) is a form of tool steel; HSS bits are hard and much more resistant to heat than high-carbon steel. They can be used to drill metal, hardwood, and most other materials at greater cutting speeds than carbon-steel bits, and have largely replaced carbon steels.
