Cutting Velocity using Machinability Index Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Cutting Velocity = Machinability Index of a Material*Cutting Speed of Free-Cutting Steel/100
V = I*Vs/100
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Cutting Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - The Cutting Velocity is the tangential velocity at the periphery of the cutter or workpiece (whichever is rotating).
Machinability Index of a Material - Machinability Index of a Material is used to compare the machinability of different materials by quantifying the relative machinability of a different materials.
Cutting Speed of Free-Cutting Steel - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Cutting Speed of Free-Cutting Steel is the speed of cutting used when operating on a standard workpiece made of Standard Cutting Steel.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Machinability Index of a Material: 125 --> No Conversion Required
Cutting Speed of Free-Cutting Steel: 40 Meter per Minute --> 0.666666666666667 Meter per Second (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
V = I*Vs/100 --> 125*0.666666666666667/100
Evaluating ... ...
V = 0.833333333333334
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
0.833333333333334 Meter per Second -->50 Meter per Minute (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
50 Meter per Minute <-- Cutting Velocity
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
