Bonus Quiz 1
Name the three primary parameters that
must be specified for a machining operation.

These three parameters allow us to decide if

we have the power to physically perform the
operation. What (three letters) calculation
can we get from the primary parameters to
begin to address the necessary power
requirements?

Manufacturing Operations
Four classes of Processing Operations:
Solidification Processes
Particulate Processes
Deformation Processes
Material Removal Processes
Two classes of Assembly Operations:
Mechanical Assembly
Joining

Machining
Variety of work materials Wasteful of material
can be machined Chips generated in
Most frequently applied to machining are wasted
metals material, at least in the
unit operation
Variety of part shapes and
special geometry features Time consuming
possible, such as: A machining operation
Screw threads
generally takes more time
to shape a given part than
Accurate round holes alternative shaping
Very straight edges and processes, such as
flat surfaces casting, powder
Good dimensional metallurgy, or forming
accuracy and surface finish

Manufacturing Systems
Machining Operations
Generally performed after other manufacturing
processes (casting, forging, )
Other processes create the general shape of the workpart
Machining provides the final shape, dimensions, finish, and
special geometric details that other processes cannot create
Most important machining operations:
Turning
Drilling
Milling
Other machining operations:
Shaping and planing
Broaching
Sawing

Cutting Speed (v)

Primary motion
Peripheral speed m/s ft/min
Feed (f)
Secondary motion
Turning: mm/rev in/rev
Milling: mm/tooth in/tooth
Depth of Cut (d)
Penetration of tool below original work surface
Single parameter mm in
Resulting in Material Removal Rate (MRR)
MRR = v f d mm3/s in3/min
where v = cutting speed; f = feed; d = depth of cut

Drilling
Creates a round hole in
a workpart
Contrasts with boring
which can only enlarge
an existing hole
Cutting tool called a drill
or drill bit
Customarily performed
on a drill press

Turning: Surface speed Parallel to the Tool penetration
(periphery) of workpiece axis* below original
workpiece rotates

single point cutting

Drilling: Surface speed Parallel to the Tool penetration

(periphery) of tool axis below original
tool rotates
tool work surface
single pass cutting (depth of hole)

Milling: Surface speed Perpendicular to Tool penetration

(periphery) of the tool axis below original

Passes
Roughing: 1+ Low High High
removes large 0.4 - 1.25 mm/ 2.5 - 20 mm
amounts to get .015 - .050 in/ .100 - .750 in
close to shape
Finishing: 1-2 High Low Low
achieves final 0.125 - 0.4 mm/ 0.75 - 2.0 mm
dimensions, .005 - .015 in/ .030 - .075 in
tolerances, and
finish

Manufacturing Systems
Turning
A single point cutting tool removes material
from a rotating workpiece to generate a
rotationally symmetric shape
Machine tool is called a lathe
Types of cuts:
Facing
Contour turning
Chamfering
Parting (Cut-off) / Grooving
Threading

Facing

Tool is fed
radially inward

8/30/2017 IENG 475: Computer-Controlled 15

Manufacturing Systems
Contour Turning
Instead of feeding the
tool parallel to the axis
of rotation, tool follows a
contour that is not
necessarily straight
(thus creating a
contoured form).

Chamfering

Cutting edge
cuts an angle on
the corner of the
cylinder, forming
a "chamfer"

Parting (Cutoff) / Grooving

Tool is fed
radially into
rotating work at
some location to
cut off end of
part, or provide
a groove

Manufacturing Systems
Threading
Pointed form tool
is fed linearly
across surface of
rotating workpart
parallel to axis of
rotation at a large
feed rate, thus
creating threads

Turret Lathe
Manual operation is replaced by a
turret that holds multiple tools
Tools are rapidly brought into action by
indexing the turret
Tool post is replaced by multi-sided turret
to index multiple tools

requires a sequence of cuts on the part
