4.5 Revolution selection
Select the spindle revolutions according to the material type of work piece diameter:
Small work piece diameter ⇒ Relatively high revolutions
Large work piece diameter ⇒ Low revolutions
Revolutions and diameter give the cutting speed.
In the event of a specified cutting speed, the required spindle revolutions can be calculated as follows:
Application example:
Thus, an aluminium work piece with a
Ø of 20 mm is to be turned with a cutting speed of 100 m/min.
Now, select from the potential revolutions, the one that comes closest to the ideal of 1592 rpm.
