FILENAMES: Speeds_and_Feeds.zip DESCRIPTION: This ZIP contains an Excel spreadsheet for calculating feeds and speeds. Posted by Robert Salasidis . The following description was provided: ================================================================= This Excel spreadsheet can be used to calculate SFM, Feed rate etc When you run it it will ask you if you want to enable macros (if your security level is medium in Excel) - the macro rezeroes the fields (but it will still work OK even if you disable it). To use it enter some values on the top five fields (DIAM, RPM, #teeth, feed/tooth, feed rate) Depending on which fields you enter the appropriate calculations will be made ie: if you enter DIAM + RPM -> you get SFM FR, In/T, #teeth, -> RPM RPM, FR, #teeth -> In/T RPM, In/T, #teeth -> FR Note that if you enter an RPM value at the same time as FR, In/RT and #teeth, the entered RPM may not coincide with the calculated RPM required - therefore only enter the known parameters (or required ones, and let the program calculate the rest)
