Working Diameter:
based on axial depth of cut (ap).
w 2 p
where: D = Working Diameter w D = Diameter of cutter insert centre to centre 2 r = Insert radius a = Axial Depth of Cut p
where: f = Feed per tooth a = Radial Depth of Cut z e
h = Average chip thickness a = Axial Depth of Cut
m p r = Insert radius
axial depth of cut. h m f = z
e p x r r
