Taylor's tool life

A drill bit during its lifetime can produce 150 through holes in a plate at a drill-speed of 200 RPM. If the drill-speed increases to 300 RPM, then it can produce 60 through holes...

Cylindrical workpieces of diameter 60 mm and length 400 mm are machined on a lathe at a cutting speed of 25 m min⁻¹ and a feed of 0.2 mm rev⁻¹. The Taylor's tool life parameters C...

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 too...

Using the Taylor's tool life equation with exponent n = 0.5, if the cutting speed is reduced by 50%, the ratio of new tool life to original tool life is

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 te...

The cutting tool are being tried for an operation. Tailors tool life equation for them are as follows $$\eqalign{ & HSS\,\,tool\,:\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,V{T^{0.1}} = 200 \cr...
