Concept explainers
A part has two holes located for drilling by manual layout. If a drill jig is used. 0.5 min in processing time is saved for each piece. The labor rate is $9/hr. The overhead rate on the labor saved is 100%. Setup time is no more with than without the jig. The combined rate for interest, insurance, taxes, and maintenance is 35%. The cost of the jig is $500.
- How many pieces must be made in one lot to make the jig worthwhile?
- How many pieces must be made on the jig in one lot each month to earn the cost of the jig in 2 years?

- Q.B5. a.) In a drilling operation, 3 blind holes needs to be drilled to a depth of 16 mm and a diameter of 8 mm. The point angle is 105° and the drill is made from HSS material. The bench drill allows a fixed speed of 1400 RPM and a feed of 0.1 mm per rev. The work part is mild steel with a thickness of 22 mm. Determine the time required to complete this operation. b.) What are some factors that determine the type of industrial cleaning that will be applied to a part? c.) In mass finishing, two key processes have been discussed - state both the processes here and explain their difference. d.) Draw and explain how a basic heading operation is carried out to produce nails.arrow_forward1. List the operations and the tools needed to make the following shape.2. Find the speed of rotation (RPM N) of each tool during roughing andfinishing.The material of the piece is Stainless Steel (C45) with CARBIDE TOOL.arrow_forwardPlease answer all partsarrow_forward
- The workpiece of size 50 mm x 90 mm length is to be reduced to 0 42 mm x 85 mm. If the depth of cut is 0.5 mm, feed is 0.25 mm/rev and cutting speed is 45 m/min find the time taken to complete one job and production rate at the end of 8 hr shift.arrow_forwardMake a neat schematic drawing of the required surface finish for roughness 1.6 achieved by milling.arrow_forwardA workpiece turning at 20 rad/sec has a diameter of 4 inches.
