MATHEMATICAL DETERMINATION OF THE CUTTING SPECIFICATIONS FOR THREAD MILLING
Description Formula Definition
ONLY FOR MILLING n = Spindle rotation speed
vc = Cutting speed
d = Milling cutter diameter
D = Internal thread diameter
vf = Feed rate at contour
vfm = Feed rate at centre
Ueint= Programmed immersion feed rate
fz= Feed rate per tooth
z = Milling cutter cutting rate
Milling external contour Vfm  =  Vf  = · (D + d)   Vf = D · Vfm    
                           D                     (D+d)
Milling internal contour Vfm  =  Vf  = · (D - d)   Vf = D · Vfm      
                       D                     (D-d)
Straight immersion Ueint  = 0,25 · Vfm
Immerse in the circular arc Ueint  = Vfm
