FAQ

What feeds and speeds for a bit in wood / mdf on a industrial CNC router?
Published maker data (Amana Tool, Onsrud) gives a chip load of 0.001–0.034 in per tooth and a feed of 40–350 IPM (145 sourced rows). Start low and test in scrap.

Weekly "what changed" email: coming soon

We'll email you when a maker updates their feeds and speeds.
