In an orthogonal cutting operation,
The depth of cut $$=2$$ $$mm,$$
Width of cut $$=15$$ $$mm,$$
Cutting speed $$=0.5$$ $$m/s$$ and
The rake angle $$=0$$ deg.
The cutting force and the thrust force are respectively $$900$$ $$N$$ and $$600$$ $$N$$ and the shear angle $$=30$$ $$deg$$.

The length of the shear plane is

Parting-off operation is carried out on a cylindrical work-piece of $$100mm$$ diameter. The groove width is $$2$$ $$mm$$ and an in feed of $$0.2$$ $$mm$$ per revolution is given at a maximum cutting speed of $$60$$ $$m/mm.$$ The specific cutting force for the material is $$800\,\,N/m{m^2}.$$

The maximum power requirement for the operation is

$$FMS$$ is well suited to mass scale manufacturing.

In $$DNC$$ each machine tool is controlled by a dedicated computer.
