  1. Taylor’s tool life equation is given by VTn = C, where V is in m/min and T is in min. In a turning operation, two tools X and Y are used. For tool X, n = 0.3 and C = 60 and for tool Y, n = 0.6 and C = 90. Both the tools will have the same tool life for the cutting speed (in m/min, round off one decimal place) of ______.
    1. 50 m/min
    2. 40 m/min
    3. 45 m/min
    4. 41 m/min
Correct Option: B

Taylor’s tool life equation,
VTn = c
for Tool X, for Tool y
VT0.3 = 60 VT0.6 = 90
Velocity when both tools have same tool life.

VT0.3
=
60
VT0.690

(T)0.6 − 0.6 =
6
9

T0.3 = 1.5
T = (1.5)1/0.3min
V =
60
= 40 m/min
(1.5)0.3/0.3
