Reference Tool Life given Min Production time evaluator uses Reference Tool Life = (Cutting Velocity For Minimum Production Time/Reference Cutting Velocity)^(1/Taylor's Exponent For Minimum Production Time)*(1-Taylor's Exponent For Minimum Production Time)*Time to Change Tool For Minimum Production Time/Taylor's Exponent For Minimum Production Time to evaluate the Reference Tool Life, The Reference Tool Life given Min Production time is a method to determine the optimal Tool Sharpening period required in reference machining condition to manufacture a given batch of components such that The Total Production Time is minimum. Reference Tool Life is denoted by Lref symbol.
How to evaluate Reference Tool Life given Min Production time using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Reference Tool Life given Min Production time, enter Cutting Velocity For Minimum Production Time (Vp), Reference Cutting Velocity (Vref), Taylor's Exponent For Minimum Production Time (nmpt) & Time to Change Tool For Minimum Production Time (tct) and hit the calculate button.
