  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 ______.

    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.

  1. Taylor's tool life equation is used to estimate the life of a batch of identical HSS twist drills by drilling through holes at constant feed in 20 mm thick mild steel plates. In test 1, a drill lasted 300 holes at 150 rpm while in test 2, another drill lasted 200 holes at 300 rpm.
    The maximum number of holes that can be made by another drill from the above batch at 200 rpm is (correct to two decimal places).

  1. An orthogonal cutting operations is being carried out in which uncut thickness is 0.010 mm, cutting speed is 130 m/min, rake angle is 15° and width of cut is 6 mm. It is observed that the chip thickness is 0.015 mm, the cutting force is 60 N and the thrust force is 25 N. The ratio of friction energy to total energy is ______. (correct to two decimal places)

    t = 0.010 mm
    v = 130 m/min
    α = 15°
    b = 6 mm
    tc = 0.015 mm
    Fc = 60 N
    Ft = 25 N
    F = Fc sin α + Ft cos α
    = 60 sin 15 + 25 cos 15
