The Abu Treka Machine & Tool Co. has a large contract for large scale production of Aluminum 6000 series filter manifolds (112 parts / month). Each manifold will require drilling of 3 x 25mm through holes with a diameter of 12.6 mm each. The thickness of the parts to be drilled is 25 mm. The manifolds are planned to be drilled using a 12.5 mm diameter drill and the remaining material stock will be removed using finishing operations. As the lead manufacturing engineer, you are expected to recommend the drilling parameters that will help achieve the maximum MRR. What settings would you recommend for rotational speed and feed? What is the maximum MRR? What is the power dissipated? What is the total volume of material removed per month from the drilling operation only?
