Circumferential Speed

Compute circumferential speed v (m/s) from dia. D (mm) and speed n (rpm); used for grinding/milling wheel speed.

Inputs

Formula

v = π·D·n/(60·1000)
Over-speed grinding wheels can burst; respect limits.

Fundamentals

Compute circumferential speed v (m/s) from dia. D (mm) and speed n (rpm); used for grinding/milling wheel speed.

This tool computes Circumferential Speed from the formula: v = π·D·n/(60·1000)

History

Manufacturing evolved with machine tools and CNC; cutting-parameter calculation is central to process planning.

Engineering applications

Used for cutting parameters, tooling and forming process design.

Formula

核心计算关系:v = π·D·n/(60·1000)

输入变量:

  • Diameter D D — mm
  • Speed n n — rpm

输出结果:

  • Line speed v v — m/s

假设/适用:Cutting params (v, f, a_p) must stay within tool/workpiece recommended windows.

Worked Example

根据公式 v = π·D·n/(60·1000),取 Diameter D = 300 mm;Speed n = 3,000 rpm。

代入计算得:Line speed v = 47.12 m/s。

Key Points

  • Cutting params (v, f, a_p) must stay within tool/workpiece recommended windows.
  • MRR scales with feed speed, depth and width; sets required spindle power.
  • Feed f = f_z·z·n; match per-tooth feed with spindle speed.
