Generation

# Machining Feed and Speed Rates **Speed** (typically measured in RPM or surface feet per minute) is how fast your cutting tool rotates or moves past the workpiece—think of it like the speedometer in a car. **Feed** (measured in inches per revolution or inches per minute) is how quickly the tool advances into the material with each rotation—imagine how deep each bite of the cutting edge goes. Together, these two parameters determine how efficiently you remove material: too slow and you waste time, too fast and you'll damage the tool, get poor surface finish, or even break something. Finding the right combination depends on your material, tool type, and desired finish quality.
