Re: paper: Feet Per Second / Misc Calculations
 

I was thinking about that before but i wanted to keep them in separate files just for ease of finding them but once i find i have them pretty much how i want them i will upload them in a .zip file so you only have to download 1 file for all the calculators and "How To's".

Thanks

Yep, I don't think they're done yet. It wouldn't make sense to put them together until they were all perfect. :)

Re: paper: Feet Per Second / Misc Calculations
 

I suppose the common COTS gearboxes and KOP gearboxes would be good. The AndyMark line (and combinations in them. IE: AM planetary to stackerbox, to toughbox, etc...), banebots, KOP FP gearbox, globe gearbox, etc...

Re: paper: Feet Per Second / Misc Calculations
 

Maybe you could make custom gearbox calculator? With the different gears, etc. Also, compiling some white papers and explanations might be helpful to rookies. I would be glad to write a few of them :) I had a hard enough time finding all of this info. (CD helped me a great deal).

I'm hoping this might become kind of like that CD/DVD set miss daisy sends too rookies but for mechanical info.

Re: paper: Feet Per Second / Misc Calculations
 

I took a few days off from working on these calculators and i can't think of any other calculators to help out during the build season.

If anyone can think of another calculator that would be helpful during build let me know and ill write one up.

And my current calculators if anyone has and suggestions for them let me know and ill try to make them better.

Hey dude, could you create a feed and speed calculator for CNC machining.

Including imput

Motor HP (if possible)
Material
Cutter Flutes
Type of cutter
Cutter diameter
Cutter Material

Output

Spindle Rate and Feed
Feed per tooth

Re: paper: Feet Per Second / Misc Calculations
 

You can find charts and even some basic calculators through Google.

At any rate, chipload is an input, not an output, and you need SFM as an input as well. As it stands, with the variables you have given, you can calculate neither a spindle speed nor a feed rate.

Re: paper: Feet Per Second / Misc Calculations
 

Corey, I found some but they were off. Could you post a link of a good one/one that works well.
