### 2/5 — Dark mode iPhone.

*2023-10-05, version 3.2*

New version is not displaying user inputs when iPhone screen mode is set to dark.  Changing screen mode over to light solves the issue. A bit annoying.  Handy calculator 👍

### 3/5 — Erra bom nova atualização ficou confuso

*2020-08-14, version 3.0.2*

Erra o melhor , depois da atualização ficou muito confuso

### 3/5 — Needs material database

*2019-09-11, version 2.5.5*

Would be awesome if the materials database with specific cutting forces was included as per the individual milling,turning and drilling apps. Why have 3 apps when this one could do it all!!

### 2/5 — Not useful to the noob

*2017-02-14, version 2.5.3*

Was looking for a replacement to my old Sandvik slide calculator, but the app requires me to know way too much, which I don't.  If I did, why would I need this?

### 4/5 — MrPicky

*2013-07-30, version 2.4.1*

Great app. Would like to see materials and the Kc values to help with power calculations.

### 3/5 — Deutsch!!!

*2012-11-09, version 2.3*

### 4/5 — Klasse

*2011-03-24, version 2.1*

Fûr alle die so eine App. auf Deutsch suchen. Es gibt fast die gleiche unter dem Namen Walter.
Drehen, Fräsen, Bohren und auch einen Wirtschaftlichkeitsrechner. Außerdem kann man sich über die App. Werkzeugvorschläge je nach Bearbeitungsart und Werkstoff machen lassen. Eine kleine Formelsammlung jnd eine Erklärung der einzelnen Kenngrößen ist auch enthalten!

### 3/5 — Sprache

### 1/5 — Campos na cor da fonte de escrita. Não dá pra usar.

*2023-10-04, version 3.2*

Os campos para entrada dos dados estão não cor preta. Não é possível usar o aplicativo no IOS 16.1.1

### 1/5 — You can’t read the input fields.

*2023-10-01, version 3.2*

Input background is black Font color is wrong and you can’t read the text. Navigation texts are not translated.

### 1/5 — Bring back the previous version

*2015-04-15, version 2.5*

I've been using this for 3 years. It's been very helpful for me. 
The previous version is faster and much easier to use compare to this newer version. 
The selection box is too small and make it very hard for the user.
Since my work required me to deal with metric system. It will not change permanently though you have change into metric. I personally think that Sandvik should really consider to improve this.

### 1/5 — Problema

*2014-09-25, version 2.4.2*

Quando atualizei o iOS para 8.0 sumiram os pontos para digitação, ex não consigo mais digitar 0.15 , quando digito aparece 15.00

### 1/5 — Great for beginners, not for me

*2012-10-19, version 2.3*

It calculates feed in ft/min. ALL machines feed inches/min. Also doesn't give chip load. Still better off with a calculator than this.

### 1/5 — Does not work on iPad

*2012-06-26, version 2.2*

Loaded the app but it does not seem to work. All I get is the results screen with no way to enter values and calculate. Too bad!

### 1/5 — Don't know.....

*2011-05-25, version 2.1*

It's been several days now & app still crashes everytime it's opened

### 1/5 — Not work!

*2011-02-19, version 2.0.2*

Crashes on iTouch OS 3.0

### 1/5 — Great before update

*2011-01-16, version 2.0*

Being a Sandvik distributor I loved and used this app until I updated. App crashes upon opening. This comes after a week of recommending it to every customer I saw. Please fix soon!!!!

### 5/5 — Yordan

*2025-03-09, version 3.3*

Vera good app.

### 5/5 — A lot of information in easy to use app

*2019-07-18, version 2.5.5*

I have been using this app for about a year. I use it relating to training I do with machinists and machine operators. It is one of the simplest for people to understand while having enough information to do quality comparisons of cutting conditions.
Examples, 
MRR - metal removal rates calculation (helps qualify if a new machining approach will actually save you time before experimenting)
HP - horsepower calculations, allows you to know roughly what power you need to pull a certain tool. Very handy when working with light duty low HP machines. (this part does require using a Chart Sandvik has on their site for material hardness (specific cutting force “kc”)
Chip Thickness - quickly calculates adjusted chip load for milling cutters weather having an angled insert (face mill) or taking a light side cut.

All needed data is easily input in this app.

### 5/5 — Ios8

*2014-10-03, version 2.4.2*

When are you going to update this app, doesn't work since the ios8 update. Thanks.

### 5/5 — Great for productivity

*2013-07-26, version 2.4.1*

If you want an app to help with improving your productivity, this is it.

### 5/5 — Great stuff

Bitte in deutsch

### 5/5 — Love it!!!

*2011-09-21, version 2.1*

My calculator only shows my last entry. Here I can see everything I need and see what effects changes may have before I make them. Typical Sandvik perfection!

### 5/5 — Ótima calculadora

*2011-04-15, version 2.1*

Facilita bastante na hora de calcular parâmetros de corte

### 5/5 — Super

*2011-02-23, version 2.0.2*

Seit dem letzten Update finde ich das Teil noch besser.

### 5/5 — Super APP für Zerspaner!

*2011-01-14, version 2.0*

Eine tolle App für alle, die auf CNC-Maschienen arbeiten.
Fräser-Durchmesser und Schnittgeschweindigkeit eingeben.
Vorschub / Zahn und Zähnezahl eingeben. Und schon hat man(n)
alles was man(n) braucht.

Man kann die APP auf Fräsen, Drehen und Bohren einstellen.

Und das auch noch zum Nulltarif!

5 Sterne!
