CUTTING SPEED RATE RECOMMENDATION
The chart in Figure 24 offers blade speed guidelines for various metals, given in feet per minute 
(FPM) and meters per minute (M/Min). Choose the closest available speed on the machine, then 
adjust the feed rate as necessary, using the Chip Inspection Chart as a guide.

Figure 25. Chip inspection chart.
The best method for choosing the cutting speed and feed rate for a cutting operation is to inspect the 
chips created by the cut. Refer to the chip inspection chart below to evaluate chip characteristics and 
determine whether to adjust feed rate/pressure, blade speed, or both.
