inch x 25.4 = mm mm x 0.03937 = inch
foot x 304.8 = mm meter x 39.37 = inch
mile x 1.609 = km km x 0.6214 = mile
Fahrenheit to Celsius: °C = °F - 3 2 x 5 ÷ 9
Celsius to Fahrenheit: °F = °C x 9 ÷ 5 + 3 2

To Find: Formula:
Revolutions Per Minute RPM = (SFM x 3 . 8 1 9 7 ) ÷ D
Surface Feet Per Minute SFM = RPM x D x 0 . 2 6 1 8
Surface Meters Per Minute (Metric) SMPM = SFM x 0 . 3 0 4 8
Inches Per Minute Milling Feedrate IPM = FPT x T x RPM
Feed Per Tooth Mill FPT = IPM ÷ (T x RPM)
Feed Per Revolution FPR = IPM ÷ RPM
Inches Per Minute Lathe IPM = IPR x RPM
Metal Removal Rate MMR = W x d x F
Advance Per Revolution (Inches) ADV/R = F ÷ RPM

Mill Tapping Feedrate IPM = 1 ÷ TPI x RPM
Lathe Threading Feedrate (Thread Lead) IPR = 1 ÷ TPI

Tap Drill Size = Major Dia. of Tap -
TPI
Major Dia. of Tap - Drill Dia.
Percent of Full Thread = TPI x

Mill Tapping Feedrate (Metric) = 1 ÷ RPM x Metric Pitch
% of Thread Height x Metric Pitch
Tap Drill Size (Metric) = Tap Major Dia. (mm) -
76.980
Basic Major Dia. (mm) x 76.980 - Drilled Hole (mm)
Percent of Full Thread (Metric) =
Metric Pitch

Radius of Circle = Circumference x 0.159155
Diameter of Circle = Circumference x 0.31831
Circumference of Circle = D x 3.1416
Area of Circle = R2 x 3.1416
Cutting Time in Minutes (Mill) = L ÷ IPM
Cutting Time in Seconds (Lathe) = Distance to go x 60 sec
IPR x RPM

D = Diameter of Milling Cutter or Lathe Part SFM = Surface Feet per Minute
d = Depth of Cut SMPM = Surface Meters per Minute
FPR = Feed per Revolution (in Inches) T = Number of Teeth in the Cutter
FPT = Feed per Tooth (in Inches) TPI = Threads per Inch
IPM = Inches per Minute (Table Travel Feedrate) W = Width of Cut
IPR = Inches per Revolution °C = Degrees Celsius
L = Length of Cut (Inches) °F = Degrees Fahrenheit
RPM = Revolutions per Minute (Spindle Speed)
