The worktable of a CNC machine tool is driven by a closed-loop positioning system which consists of a servomotor, leadscrew, and rotary encoder. The leadscrew pitch is 11 mm and is coupled directly to the motor shaft with a gear ratio of 2:1. The encoder generates 184 pulses per leadscrew revolution. The table has been programmed to move a distance of 371 mm at a feed rate of 517 mm/min. What is the pulse rate (integer) that corresponds to the specified feed rata?
