I traid a quick conversion in my head to the units I am familar with
and think you, and I think you might do a lot better with a higher
cutting speed. 50 meters / minute is 164 sfm ( I pulled out my
calculator ) and at the low end of recommended speeds for carbide.

I am cutting with a Korloy insert tool, 50 m/min speed and 0.1 mm/rev

Any suggestions ??
