Problem 17.4
• In a turning operation on stainless steel, cutting speed = 150 m/min,
feed = 0.25 mm/rev, and depth of cut = 7.5 mm. How much power
will the lathe draw in performing this operation if its mechanical
efficiency = 90%.
Problem 17.5
In Problem 17.10, compute the lathe power requirements if feed = 0.50
mm/rev.
Solution:
From Table 17.2, U = 2.8 J/mm3. With the correction factor, U =
2.8(0.87) = 2.44 J/mm3.
RMR = vfd = (150 m/min)(103 mm/m)(0.50 mm)(7.5 mm) = 562,500
mm3/min = 9,375 mm3/s
Pc = (9,375 mm3/s)(2.44 J/mm3) = 22,838 J/s = 22,838 W = 22.84 kW
Accounting for mechanical efficiency, Pg = 22.84/0.90 = 25.4 kW
Problem 17.6
• Orthogonal cutting is performed on a metal whose mass specific heat
= 1.0 J/g-C, density = 2.9 g/cm3, and thermal diffusivity = 0.8 cm2/s.
Cutting speed = 3.5 m/s, uncut chip thickness = 0.25 mm, and width
of cut = 2.2 mm. Cutting force = 950 N. Determine the cutting
temperature if the ambient temperature = 22C.
Problem 17.6 – Solution
C = (2.9 g/cm3)(1.0 J/g-C) = 2.90 J/cm3-C = (2.90x10-3) J/mm3-C
K = 0.8 cm2/s = 80 mm2/s
U = Fcv/RMR = 950 N x 3.5 m/s/(3500 mm/s x 0.25 mm x 2.2 mm) = 1.727 N-m/mm3
T = 0.4U/(ρC) x (vto/K)0.333
= 22 + (0.4 x 1.727 N-m/mm3/(2.9x10-3) J/mm3-C) [3500 mm/s x 0.25 mm/80 mm2/s]0.333
= 22 + (0.2382 x 103 C)(10.94).333 = 22 + 238.3(2.22) = 22 + 528 = 550C
Problem 18.1
• An engine lathe is used to turn a cylindrical work part 150 mm in
diameter by 500 mm long. Cutting speed = 2.50 m/s, feed = 0.30
mm/rev, and depth of cut = 3.0 mm. Determine (a) cutting time and
(b) metal removal rate
Problem 18.1 - Solution
(a) N = v/(πD) = (2.50 m/s)/0.150 = 5.305 rev/s
fr = Nf = 5.305(.30) = 1.59 mm/s
Tm = L/fr = 500/1.59 = 314 s = 5.24 min
Alternative calculation using Eq. (18.5), Tm = 150(500)π/(2,500 x 0.30) =
314 s = 5.24 min
