Zero_Divide's FSWizard speed and feed calculator is the latest professional-grade mobile calculator to hit the i0S and Android stores.
For those who aren't happy with the accuracy of the speeds and feeds generated by their CAM software, FSWizard may be your solution. Like a Swiss army knife, it also includes a toolbox of essential charts and standalone calculators to make life easier for machinists.
Can not say it gave me an immediate influx of new sales (although every bit helps!). I guess most of the sales are driven through this web site and the buzz around HSMAdvisor Advanced Speed and Feed Calculator or the free FSWizard:Online calculator.

Whats new:
New "Reference" Tab now hosts all old Tap and Drill charts along with 2 new interactive Fastener Head Clearance tables (For SHCS and 82Deg FHS).
New additions to Aluminum, Copper, Stainless and Steel material groups.
Fixed:
Manufacturer Chipload loosing default value in metric mode condition fixed.
Improved Plugin Download workings in "Plugins" page. Now external links do not get broken. Also it works a lot faster too.
So, Let's see what new goodies we got here.
As you see i re-arranged some stuff around. All data tables are now in "Reference" tab. and all geometric calculators are not in "Geometry" tabRead More
We all have manufacturer speed & feed charts and have used their recommendations.
But sometimes those charts just don't apply.
For example manufacturer charts assume you are using their endmills at a certain stickout length, flute length and at a certain depth of cut.
But in the real life you rarely match all these conditions. Sometimes you need to use longer endmill. Sometimes your flute is longer than what manufacturer gave you speeds and feed for.
What i am trying to say is that whenever your real life conditions differ from "normal" you "need to adjust accordingly". In fact this is what is printed below many charts.
Too bad not many sources tell you how and what to adjust.
While failure to adjust cutting parameters often leads to chatter, poor surface finish and even tool breakage, one of the biggest mistakes people do when machining is Read More

Please try the Free FSWizard Lite first to confirm your device capability. Also huge thanks to those who go through the trouble and leave a review. Good reviews mean more sales and more incentive for me to further improve on this app.
FSWizard Lite and FSWizard PRO are iPhone/Android machinist calculators that do not require internet connection. PRO version has all the latest material lists and speed and feed technology.
Lite version has all the same features, but it only has tool steel, mild steel and aluminum in its material list. It still has all the tool types and tool materials found in online and standalone versions Both Lite and Pro versions have unlocked tapping data.
Lite versions have limited geometry calculators.
This app is intended not to replace but to complement my much more powerful standalone Windows application called HSMAdvisor.
