Mass Flow Rate
mg/mintog/min
Convert milligrams per minute (mg/min) to grams per minute (g/min).
Factor1 mg/min = 0.001 g/min
Converter
mg/min
Accepts numbers or expressions, e.g. 150 + 14.7
Result
g/min
Rendered to 6 significant figures.
Formula
Formula
g/min = mg/min × 0.001
Multiply any value in milligrams per minute by 0.001 to obtain the value in grams per minute.
Worked example
Convert 1000 mg/min to g/min.
- 01Start with 1000 mg/min.
- 02Multiply by the conversion factor: 1000 × 0.001 = 1 g/min.
Result1000 mg/min = 1 g/min

FAQ
What is the conversion factor from mg/min to g/min?
1 mg/min equals 0.001 g/min. To convert, multiply the value in milligrams per minute by 0.001.
How do I convert 1 mg/min to g/min?
1 mg/min = 0.001 g/min. For any value, multiply by 0.001.
How do I convert g/min back to mg/min?
Divide by the same factor — or equivalently, multiply by 1000. So 1 g/min = 1000 mg/min.
When would I need to convert milligram per minute to gram per minute?
Mass flow conversions between mg/min and g/min are common in material balances, process stream summaries, bulk solids handling, custody transfer, and equipment sizing where kg/hr, t/hr, lb/hr, and lb/s may all appear in different datasheets or vendor documents.
Is the conversion exact?
The factor shown is precise to at least 7 significant figures. For most process-engineering work this is far better than instrument accuracy. For metrology or trade applications, refer to the relevant national standard (NIST, BIPM, ISO 80000).
