For the part Timberline 100-60 Carbide Tipped Carbide Tipped Economy Spoilboard, Surfacing, Rabbeting, Flycutter, Surface Planer and Flattening 2 D x 1/2 CH x1/2 Inch SHK Router Bit, to find the chip load, you would use this formula:
To find Chip Load: Feed Rate IPM / (RPM x # of flutes)
Based on this, the chip load would be 80 IPM / (18,000 x 4 Flutes) = .001"
Step over would be 40% to 50% of the bit's diameter. - 1"
