Feeds and Speeds
|
|
 Compensation for radial chip
thinning, lead angle, depth of cut, v-bits, and ballnosed cutters.
|
| "Gas Pedal" slider specifies how conservative or aggressive to make the cut. Emphasize surface finish and tool life or material removal rate. |
| Chatter calculator identifies optimal spindle rpm ranges to minimize chatter. |
| HSM Feeds and Speeds + Tool Engagement Angle Calculator |
| Deep hole drilling recommendations
including support for parabolic drills, when to peck, and when to drill a pilot hole. |
| Reamer hole size recommendations. RA and RMS surface finish (scallop height) calculator for turning and ballnose endmills. |
| Conventional vs Climb
milling recommendations. Endmill plunge rate and plunge milling feeds and speeds. |
| Micro-cutter Feed and
Speed compensation for cutters less than 1/16" in diameter. |
| Compensation for small machines (Rigidity compensation). |
| Integrated with the Tool Crib and Machine Profiles. Customize for your tools and machine HP, spindle rpm, and feedrates. |
| Integrated with G-Wizard G-Code Editor. Calculate feeds and speeds and directly output g-codes. |

Helical Interpolation
and Ramping
|
|
| |
| |
| |
| Figure how much to slow down due to geometry, plunge, and accuracy. |
| Determine your machine's acceleration capabilities based on interpolation accuracy. |
Adjust circular and helical interpolations to increase interpolated hole accuracy. |
Save time and tool changes by making accurate interpolated holes instead of drilling. |
