🔧 Chip Load Calculator
Calculate chip load per tooth, or solve for feed rate or RPM. Pick the mode that matches what you need.
Formula: Chip Load = Feed Rate (IPM) / (RPM × # Flutes)
Typical ranges: Carbide end mills in steel: 0.002–0.006 in/tooth. Aluminum: 0.004–0.012 in/tooth. Always verify with your tooling manufacturer's recommendations.
