Spindle speed to meters per minute
Type a value in rpm to get it in m/min instantly.
15.71m/min
Nothing on our list is smaller: carbide in titanium is 3.2× faster.
Convert the other way: m/min to rpm
What it means
How fast is that cut?
Pick the diameter of the rotating part: the tool on a mill or drill, the workpiece on a lathe. Speeds for materials are starting points; follow the tool maker’s data.
The math
How to convert rpm to m/min
rpm = 1000 × v ÷ (π × D) with v in m/min and D in mm; rpm = 12 × SFM ÷ (π × D) with D in inches.
Example: 500 rpm = 15.708 m/min.
RPM figures on this page are for 10 mm. Pick another diameter above and they change.
