Why is Cut Feed Rate Important?įeed Rate is important because it is directly related to virtually every aspect of NC machining from safety and productivity, to tool life, surface finish and part quality. Suggested cut feed rates will vary depending on the type of material you are cutting (i.e., aluminum, steel, wood, acrylic, etc.), the material of the cutter (carbide, high speed steel, ceramic, etc.) and many other cutting factors including desired surface and the characteristics of the CNC machine itself. Simply put, feed rate is the speed at which the cutter engages the part and is typically measured in units/minute.
