Question:
Consider the selection of two cutting conditions for turning - the cutting speed, v, and the feed, f - based upon the minimum production time criterion and the surface finish. The cutting tool is a new coated carbide cutting tool. It has a tip radius of 0.4 mm and the following Taylor's equation, where n = 0.35, T R = 80 seconds/edge and VR = 2 m/s. The "R" subscript refers to base conditions that are used to define the Taylor's equation. Terms without subscripts are the actual conditions. (T): ("he fl 1) The workpiece is 300 mm long and has an initial diameter of 50 mm. The depth of cut is 4 mm. Determine the following: a) The largest feed so that Rt S 0.56 um.
