Includes Go/No-Go gauge information, educational content about thread measurement, built-in smart suggestions (drill point angle, usable threads, tool material), and full Tap Mode AI: predictions (e.g. recent tap size, recommended tap type), post-calculation insights (form tap 90° point, blind-hole chip evacuation, deep-hole peck, thread milling for tough materials), one-click Ask AI to pre-fill the AI Assistant with your current setup, and natural-language answers for tap drill size, RPM, depth, HSS vs carbide, thread milling vs tapping, and broken-tap removal.
🔍 Drill Sizes
Comprehensive drill size database with smart search functionality. Find the perfect drill size for any application with decimal equivalents and metric conversions.
🗝️ Broach Keyway Helper
Keyway broaching calculations with step-by-step guidance, recommended depths, and shop-friendly setup references.
🔩 Bolt Circle
Calculate X/Y coordinates for hole patterns on a circular bolt circle. Enter diameter, number of holes, and start angle for flange drilling, pocket patterns, and layout work.
⚡ Feeds & Speeds
Advanced feeds and speeds calculations for all machining operations. Material-specific SFM and chipload recommendations with tool life optimization, plus rigidity-aware depth of cut strategies (Standard, Low Rigidity Aggressive, Conservative) that balance MRR, deflection, and machine limits—ideal for everything from rigid VMCs to flexible vacuum-chamber setups.
🌡️ Gas Phase Change
Gas phase change reference for temperature-based state transitions and related conversion guidance.
🧭 G-code Analyzer
Analyze and visualize G-code programs with 3D preview, toolpath inspection, and run-time simulation. Load files or paste code to check for errors and optimize toolpaths.
📚 Formulas Reference
Complete machining formula library with calculations for cutting speeds, feed rates, material removal rates, and advanced engineering formulas.
🕳️ Hole Calculator
Precision hole calculations including tolerances, fits, and dimensional analysis. Perfect for quality control and inspection operations.
📐 GD&T Guide
Comprehensive Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing reference with symbols, meanings, and application guidelines for precision manufacturing.
🤖 Macro Assistant
CNC macro programming tools for creating custom subroutines, automation sequences, and advanced programming techniques.
🔧 Milling Advisor
Toolpath selection guidance and setup recommendations for milling operations based on geometry and finish goals.
📊 Material Database
Extensive material properties database with 98 materials and growing—cutting parameters (SFM, chipload), physical properties, and machining notes for carbon steel, stainless, aluminum, tool steel, copper alloys, plastics, and more. Enhanced with AI-powered material analysis and intelligent recommendations.
⚖️ Material Weight
Calculate material weights for plates, bars, tubes, and complex shapes. Essential for material planning and cost estimation.
🔩 NPT Reference
National Pipe Thread calculations with drill sizes, thread dimensions, and application guidelines for plumbing and hydraulic systems.
🔴 O-Ring Cutter
O-ring cutter reference for groove geometry, tooling guidance, and quick selection details.
🔍 Quality Control
Inspection and measurement helper with practical QC checks, report guidance, and standards-aligned references.
🔄 Thread Milling
Advanced thread milling calculations for internal and external threads with tool selection and cutting parameter optimization.
📏 Three Wire Method
Precision thread measurement using the three-wire method with wire size recommendations, measurement calculations, and thread gauge (go/no-go) dimensions.
🔩 Torque Specifications
Professional torque specifications for bolts, nuts, and threaded fasteners with material-specific calculations and safety factors.
🔪 Chamfer Calculator
Chamfer calculations with visual representations and dimensional analysis for deburring and edge preparation operations.
📐 Sine Bar
Sine bar height calculator for quick angle setup using length and target angle inputs.
📻 Radio Station
Find the perfect radio station for your shop environment with genre-based recommendations and local station listings.
🏭 Suppliers/Tools
Supplier directory for tooling, materials, and shop essentials with quick links and vendor details.
🚨 Fanuc Alarms
Fanuc alarm reference with codes, descriptions, and troubleshooting context.
🔧 Fanuc Glossary
Fanuc code glossary and quick reference for CNC programming terms.
◐ Surface Finish Estimator
Estimates surface finish from feed per revolution and insert nose radius using the turning formula Ra = f²/(8×R), with Rz shown as ≈5×Ra. Fully unit-aware (µin / µm) and tied into the global unit toggle so you can sanity-check print callouts in seconds before you ever touch a profilometer.
⏱ Tool Life Estimator
Taylor tool life calculator (T = (C/V)^(1/n)) for steels, stainless, aluminum, cast iron, and titanium with carbide or HSS tooling. Shows estimated life in minutes and how aggressively running 2× SFM eats inserts, so you can pick a realistic speed instead of guessing.
◉ Hardness ↔ SFM
Converts workpiece hardness (HB or HRC) into an SFM multiplier referenced to 175 HB = 1.0, and gives an adjusted cutting speed when you enter a base SFM. Keeps you from running 20–40% too fast on hard stock, or crawling needlessly slow on free-machining materials.
🔬 What‑If Scenario Playground
Interactive trade‑off explorer that reuses Feeds & Speeds, Tool Life, and Surface Finish logic. Tweak RPM, feed, DOC, and WOC and see live MRR, tool life, spindle HP, deflection, Ra, chatter/breakage risk, and normalized radar/line charts to quickly find a safe, productive recipe.
⏱️ Job Timer & Efficiency Tracker
Simple offline job timer for real cycle tracking with start/pause, laps plus notes, decimal‑hours readout, and optional predicted cycle time input. Persists state in the browser so timing survives reloads, and exports a text/JSON snapshot you can drop straight into your job traveler or knowledge base.
