Governing Equations
Material Removal Rate
Q = (ap × ae × Vf) / 1000 [cm³/min]
Spindle Power
Pc = (Q × kc) / 60,000 [kW]
Cross-Sectional Area
Ac = ap × ae [mm²]
Specific cutting force (kc) for Mild Steel is 1900 N/mm².
Cutting power is proportional to specific cutting force and material removal rate.
