Chapter 27, Problem 52SDP
One of the general concerns regarding advanced machining processes is that, in spite of their many advantages, they generally are slower than conventional machining operations. Conduct a survey of the speeds, machining times, and production rates involved, and prepare a table comparing their respective process capabilities.

For the following application, identify one or more nontraditional machining processes that might be used, and present arguments to support your selection. Assume that either the part geometry or the work material (or both) preclude the use of conventional machining. The application is a blind-hole in the shape of the letter G in a 50 mm (2.0 in) cube of steel. The overall size of the "G" is 25 by 19 mm (1.0 by 0.75 in), the depth of the hole is 3.8 mm (0.15 in), and its width is 3 mm (1/8 in).
For the following application, identify one or more nontraditional machining processes that might be used, and present arguments to support your selection. Assume that either the part geometry or the work material (or both) preclude the use of conventional machining. The application is a matrix of 0.1 mm (0.004 in) diameter holes in a plate of 3.2 mm (0.125 in) thick hardened tool steel. The matrix is rectangular, 75 by 125 mm (3.0 by 5.0 in) with the separation between holes in each direction = 1.6 mm ( 0.0625 in).
A slab milling operation is performed on the top surface of a tool-steel workpiece 450 mm long by 7.5 cm wide. The helical milling cutter, which has an 80 mm diameter and seven teeth, is set up to overhang the width of the part on both sides. Cutting speed is 4000 mm/min, feed is 0.015 cm/tooth, and depth of cut = 0.60 cm. Determine (a) the actual machining time to make one pass across the surface and (b) the maximum metal removal rate during the cut. (c) If an additional approach distance of 0.05 m is added at the beginning of the pass, and an overtravel distance at the end of the pass equal to the cutter radius plus 0.0115 cm, what is the duration of the feed motion
