Question: 2 ( 8 0 points ) Determine the production cost ( material , tooling, and machining time / cost ) difference for aluminum and titanium

2(80 points) Determine the production cost (material, tooling, and machining time/cost) difference for aluminum and titanium cranks for cutting speeds at the low, middle, and high end of the cutting speed range in the chart. Use the following assumptions
1000 parts (right arm)
$75 per hour for machining time
.5'' two flute endmill and finishing with a .375'' two flute endmill.
$50 per roughing endmill
$45 per finishing endmill
No effective limit on RPM or travel speeds
100,000mm of tool travel for the roughing operation
50,000mm of travel for the finishing operation
Aluminum (n=.125,C=4000)
Titanium (n=.25,C=1400)
Stock size options (blank size of 2203350mm)
i. aluminum | McMaster-Carr
Titanium raw material cost is 9x aluminum cost
Hardness less than 32HRC
