I'm trying to calculate proper feed rates for my Cable Porter 100-M router which I have mounted on a 3-axis CNC machine. The spindle speed is not listed in the original user manual.
- Does anyone know what would be a reasonable spindle RPM to use in my feed rate calculator? (I'm machining timber.)
- As a sanity check, what would you expect to be a reasonable feed rate for a 6.35 mm / 1/4" straight cutter on pine (softwood) and teak (hardwood) with, say, a 3 mm cutting depth.
Many thanks.

According to the last page (page 17?) of the manual that is attached, the Model 100 Router runs at 22,000 RPM.
