1. Calculation of trigonometric functions
1.tgθ=b/a ctgθ=a/b
2. Sinθ=b/c Cos=a/c
2. Calculation of cutting speed
Vc=(π*D*S)/1000
Vc: line speed (m/min)
π: pi (3.14159)
D: tool diameter (mm)
S: speed (rpm)
3. Calculation of feed amount (F value)
F=S*Z*Fz
F: Feed amount (mm/min)
S: speed (rpm)
Z: number of blades
Fz: (actual feed per edge)
4. Calculation of residual material height
Scallop=(ae*ae)/8R
Scallop: residual material height (mm)
ae: XY pitch (mm)
R tool radius (mm)
5. Calculation of material escape hole
Φ=√2R2
X, Y=D/4
Φ: escape hole diameter (mm)
R tool radius (mm)
D: tool diameter (mm)
Six, the calculation of the amount of material
Q=(ae*ap*F)/1000
Q: Feed amount (cm3/min)
ae: XY pitch (mm)
ap: Z pitch (mm)
7. Calculation of feed per blade
Fz=hm * √(D/ap )
Fz: Implemented feed per blade hm: Theoretical feed per blade ap: Z pitch(mm)
D: blade diameter (mm)
8. Die edge processing method
Cutting edge processing depth = plate thickness – cutting edge height + drill tip (0.3D)
D means tool diameter
9. Drilling time formula
T(min)=L(min)/N(rpm)*f(mm/rev)
=πDL/1000vf
L: Hole length
N: Number of revolutions
f: Feed amount coefficient
D: Drill diameter
v: cutting speed
Drill coefficient table fz

Feed mm/rev
1.6~3.2
0.025~0.075
3.2~6.4
0.05~0.15
6.4~12.8
0.10~0.25
12.8~25
0.175~0.375
over 25
0.376~0.625
10. Calculation formula of tube teeth
1 inch = 25.4mm = 8 points
Eleven, horsepower (gun drill)
W=Md*N/97.410
W: required power (KW)
Md: Torque (kg-cm)
N: number of revolutions (r.p.m)
12. The torque calculation formula is as follows:
Md=1/20*f*ps*r2
f is the feed rate mm/rev coefficient
r is the radius of the drill bit (mm)
α: cutting resistance ratio ps. In small feed, the general steel is 500kg/m㎡; the general cast iron is 300kg/m㎡;
