Calculate Turning and Milling Parameters Instantly

Enter machining values to see live results for common turning and milling formulas. Each calculator updates automatically as you type.

Turning Calculator

Enter turning values to calculate cutting speed, feed rate, cutting time, and theoretical roughness instantly.

Cutting Speed (Vc)

Vc = π × d × n / 1000

  • Vc: Cutting Speed
  • d: Workpiece Diameter
  • n: Spindle Speed

Feed Rate (Fr)

Fr = l / n

  • Fr: Feed Rate
  • l: Cutting Length/min
  • n: Spindle Speed

Cutting Time (Te)

Te = lm / l

  • Te: Cutting Time
  • lm: Component Length
  • l: Cutting Length/min

Theoretical Roughness (h)

h = (f² / (8 × Re)) × 1000

  • h: Surface Roughness
  • f: Feed Rate
  • Re: Insert Nose Radius

Milling Calculator

Enter milling values to calculate cutting speed, feed per tooth, feed speed, and process time instantly.

Cutting Speed (Vc)

Vc = π × D1 × n / 1000

  • Vc: Cutting Speed
  • D1: Insert Diameter
  • n: Spindle Speed

Feed per Tooth (Fz)

Fz = vf / (z × n)

  • Fz: Feed per Tooth
  • vf: Feed Speed/min
  • z: Milling Blades No.
  • n: Spindle Speed

Feed Speed (Vf)

Vf = fz × z × n

  • Vf: Feed Speed
  • fz: Feed per Tooth
  • z: Milling Blades No.
  • n: Spindle Speed

Process Time (Tc)

Tc = L / vf

  • Tc: Process Time
  • L: Workbench Feed Length
  • vf: Feed Speed/min

Calculations are for reference only. Confirm final machining parameters with tool testing, machine limits, and your actual process conditions.
