rPm (SPINDlE SPEED)
RPM is the rotational speed of the spindle in revolutions per
minute. In a milling machine or drill, the Spindle Speed is the
rotation of the attached cutting tool. In a turning machine, it is
the rotation of the attached workpiece. RPM can be calculated
given values for Diameter and Cutting Speed.
