Wood Chucking

To calculate the amount of wood that is chucked, and the other properties of wood chucking, using the TECHNO CNC WOOD LATHE the following values and assumptions will be used:

The spindle speed of the lathe has a range of 500-2000 RPM
The diameter of the chuck is 6 in. approximately 15 cm.
A one kilogram block of wood made out of American Spruce with a density of .541 grams per cubic centimeter has approximate dimensions of 12x12x12 cm.
An attachment is used to feed wood blocks at a rate equal to the rate of the chuck spinning (1 Block Per Revolution).
The lathe is run for 1 minute.

At 500 revolutions per minute:

500 RPM x 1 Block Per Revolution x 1 minute = 500 Blocks
500 RPM / 60 seconds = 8.33 Revolutions per second = 8.33 Blocks per second

At 2000 revolutions per minute:

2000 RPM x 1 Block Per Revolution x 1 minute = 2000 Blocks
2000 RPM / 60 seconds = 33.3 Revolutions per second = 33.3 Blocks per second
