Materials Science and Manufacturing Engineering

  1. A 600 mm x 30 mm flat surface of a plate is to be finish machined on a shaper. The plate has been fixed with the 600 mm side along the tool travel direction. If the tool over-travel at each end of the plate is 20 mm, average cutting speed is 8 m/min, feed rate is 0.3 mm/stroke and the ratio of return time to cutting time of the tool is 1: 2, the time required for machining will be
    1. 8 minutes
    2. 12 minutes
    3. 16 minutes
    4. 20 minutes
Correct Option: B

Length travelled in forwarded stroke = 640 mm
Number of strokes = 100
Time for cutting = 8 min
Return time = 4 min
Total time =12 min.
