I gave the default speed and feed for each tool and when I call the tools for operations like Roughing,finishing etc.. the default value doesn't get updated.

Give me some suggestions how I solve the issue.

    If you want this to automatically populate without any selections (and update if you change materials) you should use relations in your site file. Something like:

    CUT_FEED =TOOL_ROUGH_FEED_RATE

    STEP_OVER =TOOL_ROUGH_RADIAL_DEPTH-.005

    SPINDLE_SPEED=TOOL_ROUGH_SPINDLE_RPM

    STEP_DEPTH=TOOL_ROUGH_AXIAL_DEPTH

    I suppose you know.., you can set tool conditions for different materials and then use them in your manufacturing model selecting the stock material:
