Q

Calculate the feed rate for cutting a key seat in a 4” diameter mild steel shaft using a 1” diameter HSS end mill with 4 flutes.

CS = 100 SFPM, Chip load/tooth = 0.002”

(Feed rate - RPM x Chip load x number of teeth)

  1. 3.2 inches per revolution
  2. 3.2 inches per minute
  3. 0.8 inches per revolution
  4. 0.8 inches per minute
A
  1. 3.2 inches per minute.

You first need to establish the RPM

CS x 4 / diameter of cutter.

400 RPM
