QUESTION 4
4.1.1 The output power at the cutting tool
Calculate the area of cut.
Calculate the cutting force.
Calculate the cutting speed.
Convert diameter to meters and spindle speed to revolutions per second.
Calculate the output power.
The output power at the cutting tool is .
4.1.2 The input power from the motor
Use the drive efficiency formula.
The input power from the motor is .
4.2.1 The horizontal force required to move the ram
Calculate the normal force (weight of the ram).
Assume gravitational acceleration .
Calculate the horizontal force (friction force).
The horizontal force required to move the ram is .
4.2.2 The coefficient of friction if the force to move the ram is increased by 30%
Calculate the new force required.
Calculate the new coefficient of friction.
The normal force remains the same.
The new coefficient of friction is .
QUESTION 5
5.1.1 The cutting power
Convert spindle speed to revolutions per second and then to angular velocity.
Calculate the cutting power using torque and angular velocity.
The cutting power is .
5.1.2 The feed force if the feed is 0,20 mm/rev
The thrust on the drill is given as 1200 N. This thrust force is the feed force. The feed rate of 0.20 mm/rev is the specific condition under which this force is applied.
The feed force is .5.2.1 The feed per tooth
Use the formula for feed per tooth.
The feed per tooth is .
5.2.2 The material removal rate if the width of cut is 40 mm and the depth of cut is 2 mm
Use the formula for material removal rate (MRR).
The material removal rate is .
5.3 State FOUR safety precautions to be observed when operating a lathe.
- Always wear appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), including safety glasses.
- Ensure the workpiece is securely clamped in the chuck or between centers before starting the machine.
- Keep hands and loose clothing clear of all rotating parts and cutting tools.
- Never leave the lathe running unattended.
5.4
There is an inconsistency in the problem statement for Question 5.4.
Given:
Power transmitted () = 5.5 kW = 5500 W
Belt speed () = 18 m/s
Difference between tight-side and slack-side tensions () = 1000 NThe formula for power transmitted by a belt is .
If we use the given values: .
This shows that , indicating a contradiction in the given information.To make the problem solvable for individual tensions, we will assume that the "1 000 N" refers to the sum of the tight-side and slack-side tensions (), as this is a common way for such problems to be structured when there's an error in phrasing.
Calculate the actual difference in tensions from the given power and belt speed.
Use the assumed sum of tensions to form a system of equations.
- (Assumption: "difference" was a typo for "sum")
5.4.1 The tight-side tension
Add the two equations to solve for .
The tight-side tension is .
5.4.2 The slack-side tension
Substitute into the second equation to solve for .
The slack-side tension is .
