What Is This Tool?

This converter allows you to transform speed values measured in foot per second (ft/s), an imperial unit, into millimeter per minute (mm/min), a metric unit used for precise and slow linear motions. It's helpful for adapting fast, customary speed units into finer, slow SI-based measures.

How to Use This Tool?

  • Enter the speed value in foot/second (ft/s) you want to convert.
  • Select foot/second as the input unit and millimeter/minute as the output unit.
  • Click the convert button to obtain the equivalent speed in millimeter/minute (mm/min).
  • Use the result for programming CNC machines, 3D printers, or other precise motion systems.

Key Features

  • Converts speed from foot/second (ft/s) to millimeter/minute (mm/min).
  • Built for applications ranging from ballistics to CNC machining and 3D printing.
  • Browser-based and easy to use without installation.
  • Supports integration between imperial and metric unit systems.

Examples

  • Converting 2 ft/s results in 36576 mm/min.
  • Converting 0.5 ft/s results in 9144 mm/min.

Common Use Cases

  • Specifying projectile speeds in ballistics and firearms.
  • Reporting airflow or fluid velocity in HVAC systems using customary units.
  • Programming feed rates in G-code for CNC machines and 3D printers.
  • Controlling slow, precise motions in metrology, microscopy, and optical alignment.
  • Setting actuator speeds and conveyor rates in laboratory and industrial automation.

Tips & Best Practices

  • Ensure you understand the large scale difference between ft/s and mm/min when interpreting results.
  • Use mm/min conversions primarily for slow or precise movements, as the unit suits fine motion control.
  • Double-check conversions when working with very high or very low speeds due to potential rounding issues.
  • Leverage this tool for integrating legacy imperial data with modern metric-based equipment.

Limitations

  • Involves a large difference in units and time scales, possibly affecting precision for extreme speeds.
  • Millimeter/minute is mainly for slow linear motion, so high speeds in ft/s may not be practical to convert for real applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does foot/second measure?
Foot/second (ft/s) is a unit of speed in the US customary and Imperial systems, representing one foot traveled in one second.

When should I use millimeter per minute?
Millimeter/minute (mm/min) is used for very slow or precise linear speeds, common in CNC machining and precise instrumentation.

Is this conversion suitable for high-speed applications?
Due to the unit scale differences, converting high speeds from ft/s to mm/min may not be practical for all high-speed uses.

Key Terminology

foot/second [ft/s]
A speed unit in US customary and Imperial systems defined as one foot traveled in one second; exactly 0.3048 metres per second.
millimeter/minute [mm/min]
A linear speed unit representing one millimeter of displacement per minute, used for very slow or precise linear motions.
