Z-CARB MD SpeedFeed

The document provides speed and feed recommendations for different types of machining operations based on the material hardness and tool diameter. It gives recommended speeds in surface feet per minute or meters per minute and feeds in inches or millimeters per tooth. The operations covered are slotting, profiling, and high speed profiling. Speeds and feeds decrease as material hardness increases from 30-45 HRc to over 55 HRc. Smaller tool diameters use lower feeds across operations.
