A lathe is used to turn a 25mm diameter bar. The value of n = 0.16 and tool life is 45 min at speed of 100 m/min. If a length of 50 mm per component is machined and the feed rate is 0.25 mm/rev. The number of pieces that can be produced between tool changes if spindle should run to obtain a tool of 5 hours is _____.

Solution

The correct option is A 1410
V×(5×60)0.16=100×(45)0.16
V=73.82m/min

Spindle speed =73.82×1000π×25=939.90543rev/min

Cutting time per piece =50×60939.90543×0.25=12.7672sec

No. of components per tool change =50×60×6012.7672=1409.858=1410
