Back when i was working on a lathe, i always calculated RPM based on the actual diameter of the workpiece.
This is the way i was taught at school and have seen this suggested in all sorts of literature.
Now I am selling Speeds and Feeds software and this is the way RPM calculation is implemented there.
Every so often my customers report that RPM must be calculated using Turning Diameter.
But what is the "Industry standard" in this case?
*Stock Diameter?
or
*Turn Diameter?
