Hello everyone. Happy Thanksgiving!
Does anyone know if it would be possible to calculate the rpm and feed rate for cutting inside threads? For example, 3/8-10 threading on shafts.
I have a midamericapool's lathe with the CNC attachment so I would have the ability to control the feed rate. The motor is variable so I should be able to control the spindle rpm using a tachometer (probably).
I am just curious if there's a formula for cutting threads.
Thanks for your time.
Chris
