2. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

   Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.

3. Machinist calculator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machinist_calculator

   A machinist calculator is a hand-held calculator programmed with built-in formulas making it easy and quick for machinists to establish speeds, feeds and time without guesswork or conversion charts. Formulas may include revolutions per minute (RPM), surface feet per minute (SFM), inches per minute (IPM), feed per tooth (FPT). A cut time (CT ...

4. Plasma cutting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_cutting

   Some plasma cutter manufacturers build CNC cutting tables, and some have the cutter built into the table. CNC tables allow a computer to control the torch head producing clean sharp cuts. Modern CNC plasma equipment is capable of multi-axis cutting of thick material, allowing opportunities for complex welding seams that are not possible otherwise.

5. Electron-beam machining - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron-beam_machining

   Electron-beam machining (EBM) is a process where high-velocity electrons concentrated into a narrow beam that are directed towards the work piece, creating heat and vaporizing the material.

6. Surface feet per minute - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_feet_per_minute

   It relates to spindle speed via variables such as cutter diameter (for rotating cutters) or workpiece diameter (for lathe work). SFM is a combination of diameter and the velocity ( RPM ) of the material measured in feet-per-minute as the spindle of a milling machine or lathe . 1 SFM equals 0.00508 surface meter per second (meter per second, or ...

7. Titanium alloys - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titanium_alloys

   Titanium and its alloys are used in airplanes, missiles, and rockets where strength, low weight, and resistance to high temperatures are important. [14] [15] [16] Since titanium does not react within the human body, it and its alloys are used in artificial joints, screws, and plates for fractures, and for other biological implants.
