Machine shops & specialties (coming)

Find real shops. Use real shop math.

MachineShop.Pro is becoming a practical directory of machine shops and what they do — capabilities, processes, and specialties you can source against, the way production buyers and job-shop leads search today.

What you can use right now: five free calculators for working CNC machinists and programmers — setup trig, bolt circles, speeds and feeds, and inch/metric for prints and tooling. Built for the floor (Haas NGC mindset is fine); not for hobby makers, and not an OEM manual library.

Verify results at the machine before you cut. These calculators are not a substitute for your control documentation, work instructions, or shop standards.

Shop Trig

Right-triangle sides and angles for setups, tapers, and sine-bar style work.

Right triangle: angle A is opposite side a; angle B opposite side b. C is the 90° corner between sides a and b. Enter any two known values.

Length units:

Enter at least two values (sides and/or acute angles).

Bolt Circle

Hole count, pitch circle diameter, and start angle → X/Y from your part zero.

PCD units:

Convention: part zero origin · X/Y in table below · angles CCW from +X (hole 1 at start angle)

Enter hole count, PCD, and start angle.

SFM ↔ RPM

Spindle speed from cutter diameter and surface speed (inch or metric).

Imperial: diameter in in · speed as SFM (ft/min) · not Vc

Enter diameter (in) and SFM (ft/min).

Chip Load / Feed

Feed rate from chipload, flutes, and RPM — or work backward to chipload.

Feed = chip load × flutes × RPM. Use IPT/IPM or mm/tooth and mm/min consistently.

Fill in flutes, RPM, and the value you know.

Inch ↔ Metric

Length and thread pitch conversions for prints, taps, and tooling.
