INOCUT vs Hoffmann Machining Calculator

The INOCUT Cutting Data app provides you with your starting speed and feed recommendations, which are calculated from the selections you make as you are walked step by step through the app. Some of the choices you will be asked to make are the material being cut, your needed size and geometry features, and whether you want your data in metric or imperial. First you are to choose either milling, drilling, reaming or tapping. Then you are asked to select a material category from a provided list, or you can type in your material based on a pulldown window that contains several international material norms. Next, you are given the option to further narrow down your results based on the style of cutting. After selecting your style of cutting, you are provided with your “first choice” tool at the top, with subsequent choices following further down the list. By selecting from the provided dimensions, you will be given your starting data that has been tailored to your specific choices. There are a plethora of choices you can choose to bring the recommendations as close to your specific circumstances as possible! Beyond this, you are then given the opportunity to input a competitors tooling information and the program will show you a side by side comparison of both tools, which includes a comparison of economic efficiency. D1 (Diameter) FL (Flutes) l1 (Length of cut) nmax (Maximum speed) ap (Cutting depth) ae (Row pitch) ∝ (alpha) Rd (Roughness depth) nf (Speed factor) Dmin. (minimal intervention-diameter) Dmax. (maximal intervention-diameter) vc (Cutting speed) fz, f, f=lead (Feed per tooth) S (Rotation speed) vf (Feed rate) f (Feed per rotation) Q (Material removal rate) Hm (Middle chipping thickness)

THE QUICK WAY TO CALCULATE CUTTING DATA Use the Hoffmann Group Machining Calculator to calculate the most relevant cutting and performance data for turning, drilling, milling and TPC milling production methods. The Hoffmann Group Machining Calculator is an app, which we have developed specially for you, so that you can calculate cutting and performance data regardless of tool and offline – any time, anywhere. Advantages for you, at a glance: - User-friendly interface allows for fast and simple navigation - Forward and reverse calculations allow you to calculate the cutting speed using the given speed for example - Integrated link to ToolScout and access to our tried-and-tested material database - Clear formulae with explanatory pictograms Drilling, turning, milling – calculate all cutting data using one app You can calculate the speed and feed rate for the production methods of turning, drilling and milling by entering the corresponding parameters, as well as subsequently readjusting them to the machine parameters. In the additional screen on performance calculation, you can calculate all relevant performance values such as torque, metal removal rate, main processing time, performance, cut arc angle and specific cutting forces, by selecting the corresponding material and entering additional production parameters. TPC milling (Trochoidal Performance Cutting) Calculate the relevant parameters for your application using a few entries. In this case, it is possible to calculate the cutting width, feed rate per cutting edge, cut arc angle and the maximum cutting thickness. The Hoffmann Machining Calculator is now also available in 16 languages: German, Hungarian, Czech, Spanish, Slovenian, Swedish, Russian, Romanian, Polish, Dutch, Italian, French, Finnish, English, Danish and Chinese.
