Question 1
A turning operation is performed on an engine lathe using a tool with zero rake angle in the direction
of chip flow. The work material is an alloy steel with hardness =325 Brinell. Feed =0.015inrev, depth
of cut =0.125in, and cutting speed =300ftmin. After the cut, the chip thickness ratio =0.45.(a) Using
the appropriate value of specific energy from the Table in Q4, calculate the gross horsepower in (hp) at
the drive motor, if the lathe efficiency =85%.(Round your answer to one decimal point)
Integer, decimal, or Enotation allowed
Question 2
From Q1, calculate the lathe gross power in kilowatt (kW) if feed =0.50mmrev.(Round your answer
to one decimal point)
