Question

A series of end-milling cuts is currently used to produce an aluminum part that is an aircraft component. The purpose of the machining operation is to remove 95% of the part weight to create a structural frame. A total of 4.0 min is lost during the milling cycle due to tool repositioning. The part has a length = 1.6 m, width=0 m, and mm. The operation uses a four-tooth indexable-insert end mill with mm at a cutting speed 600 m/min, chip load 0.15 mm/tooth, and average cross-sectional area of cut-240 mm. High-speed machining has to replace the conventional milling process. The same chip load and average area of cut will be used, but the cutting speed will be increased to 3600 m/min , and the time lost for tool repositioning will be reduced to 2.0 min.
Determine :
(a) The cycle time of the current milling operation and
(b) The cycle time of the proposed HSM operation.
(c) Is this part a good candidate for high-speed machining?
