cutting feed per tooth
The distance that the workpiece feeds into each tooth on a multi-point cutting tool as it rotates. This distance, also called the chip load per tooth, describes the size of the material chip that each tooth will cut. The feed per tooth, measured in inches per tooth (IPT), multiplied by the number of teeth on the cutting tool is equal to the cutting feed, measured in inches per revolution (IPR).
