ball nose effective cutting diameter calculator online

Use ball nose effective cutting diameter online for ball radius mm, axial depth mm. Contact depth from the tip up to the ball radius. Ideal machining arithmetic. Supplied cutting data are illustrative, and tool limits, workholding, machine protection and real cycle behavior require independent review.

How to use it

Enter ball radius mm. Set axial depth mm. Select Calculate and check the labeled output. Copy or download the JSON result.

Options and example settings

OptionChoices / valueExample default
ball radius mmMain input. Positive values. 5
axial depth mmOption. Positive values. 1

Calculation method

effective_diameter_mm = 2*sqrt(2*ball_radius_mm*range(axial_depth_mm,0,ball_radius_mm)-axial_depth_mm^2) (^ means exponentiation; trig functions ending in d use degrees).

Worked examples

Apply ball nose effective cutting diameter to the case below, keeping the displayed units and assumptions. Contact depth from the tip up to the ball radius.

Choose the right tool

Use cutting data suitable for the actual tool and material. Effective diameter, engagement and chip thickness affect the applicable formulas. Cycle estimates do not generate machine-ready instructions or validate safe operation.

Limitations and common mistakes

  • Contact depth from the tip up to the ball radius. Ideal machining arithmetic. Supplied cutting data are illustrative, and tool limits, workholding, machine protection and real cycle behavior require independent review.
  • Use the displayed unit in every field. Ratios and percentages are different inputs; percent fields use values such as 25 rather than 0.25.
