In an orthogonal cutting experiment, an $$HSS$$ tool having the following tool signature in the orthogonal reference system $$(ORS)$$ has been used: $$0-10-7-7-10-75-1$$
Given : Width of cut $$=3.6mm;$$
Shear strength of work piece material $$460N/m{m^2};$$
Depth of cut $$=0.25mm;$$
Coefficient of friction at chip tool interface $$=0.7.$$

Minimum Power requirement (in $$KW$$) at a cutting speed of $$150m/min$$ is

Brittle materials are machined with tools having zero or negative rake angles because it

During machining, the wear land $$(h)$$ has been plotted against machining time $$(T)$$ as given in the following figure.

For a critical wear land of $$1.8mm,$$ the cutting tool life (in $$min$$) is

The quick return mechanism used in shaper has rocker arm drive of length $$200mm.$$ If the crank radius is $$50mm$$ and the offset between crank center and rocker arm pivot is $$20mm,$$ length of the stroke (in meters) is
