Estimate milling time for the initial machining operation.
The blank HastelloyX plates used to make the injector plate come from the supplier in dimensions of mm x mm x
mm thickness with a rough surface finish on both the top and bottom surfaces resulting from the plate rolling operation
used for their manufacture. As such, before the machining of any features can be done, the plates will need their top and
bottom surfaces machined in order to improve their surface finish and reduced the plate thickness to the desired mm This
machining operation will be done by face milling on a vertical mill. The face milling cutting tool has teeth, a diameter of
mm The maximum depth of possible with the cutting tool is mm The cutting speed is mmin the feed chip load
is mmtooth Determine the total machining time required for the operation assuming that there is a overlap of
adjacent tool passes ie width of the tool cover the area machined by a previous tool pass. Neglect any time for
repositioning of the workpiece or cutting tool
