Code Tool Path Generator for Circles Calculator Usage Guide

Learn how to use the Code Tool Path Generator for Circles calculator and its working principles

How to Use the Calculator

  1. Enter the circle radius in millimeters (mm).
  2. Input the feed rate in millimeters per minute (mm/min).
  3. Specify the tool diameter in millimeters (mm).
  4. Set the plunge depth in millimeters (mm).
  5. Click the "Calculate" button to generate the results.

Working Principle

This calculator generates tool paths for CNC machining of circular shapes. The circumference of the circle is calculated using the formula \(2 \times \pi \times R\), where \(R\) is the radius. The time required to complete the path is calculated by dividing the circumference by the feed rate. The tool path depth is simply the plunge depth specified by the user.

Applications

This tool is useful for CNC machinists who need to generate tool paths for circular cutting operations. It helps in optimizing the machining process by providing accurate calculations for feed rate, time, and tool path depth.
