Grinding Wheel Calculator - Metric

This calculator can be used to determine the relationship
 between wheel diameter, RPM, and surface speed.

Surface speed units are meters per second (m/s).
Wheel diameter is in millimeters (mm).

Input any two values to calculate the third value.
(One of the three boxes must be blank when the calculation is made.)

The following simple relationship is used:

Surface Speed [m/s] = RPM * Wheel Diameter [mm] * Pi / (1000 [mm/m] * 60 [s/min]

Surface Speed = 

Wheel RPM = 

Wheel Diameter =
