In chapter 1 lesson 4, we break down feeds and speeds and how they directly impact both your design and the cost of your parts.
We’ll introduce key concepts like RPM, inches per minute, chip load, and surface feet per minute, and explain how they all work together when an end mill interacts with material. From there, we’ll walk through how to calculate feed rate, what happens when you push things too fast or too slow, and how these decisions affect tool life, surface finish, and machining time.
