  2. Surface feet per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_feet_per_minute

    SFM is a combination of diameter and the velocity 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 m/s, is the SI unit of speed). The faster the spindle turns, and/or the larger the diameter, the higher the SFM.

  3. 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.

  4. 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 ...

  5. Talk:Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Speeds_and_feeds

    It is a chart titled, "Alloy Steels," not "low alloy steels." The chart lists the alloy steels from 1320 to 9262 with a range of 65 to 120 SFM. This chart has been used by many machinists throughout the years and is published by an authority: Brown & Sharpe. So as long at the chart is titled "Alloy Steels." I'm sticking with the reference.

  6. Revolutions per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Revolutions_per_minute

    Revolutions per minute (abbreviated rpm, RPM, rev/min, r/min, or r⋅min −1) is a unit of rotational speed (or rotational frequency) for rotating machines. One revolution per minute is equivalent to ⁠ 1 / 60 ⁠ hertz .

  7. Mean piston speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_piston_speed

    Peak torque is reached at higher rpm and is spread over a wider range of rpm. The specifications of these are known factors and can be designed to. Torque is a function of the length of the stroke, the shorter the stroke, the less available torque at lower rpm, but the piston velocity can be taken to much greater speeds, meaning higher engine rpm.

  8. Compressor map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressor_map

    A compressor map is a chart which shows the performance of a turbomachinery compressor. This type of compressor is used in gas turbine engines, for supercharging reciprocating engines and for industrial processes, where it is known as a dynamic compressor. A map is created from compressor rig test results or predicted by a special computer program.

  9. Structure from motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_from_motion

    Structure from motion (SfM) [1] is a photogrammetric range imaging technique for estimating three-dimensional structures from two-dimensional image sequences that may be coupled with local motion signals. It is studied in the fields of computer vision and visual perception.
