Reference Tool Life given Minimum Production Cost evaluator uses Reference Tool Life = Tool Life/(((Production Cost of Each Component/Machining and Operating Rate-Setup Time)*Reference Cutting Velocity*(1-Taylor's Tool Life Exponent)/Constant For Machining Condition)^(1/Taylor's Tool Life Exponent)) to evaluate the Reference Tool Life, The Reference Tool Life given Minimum Production Cost 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 Production Cost is minimum. Reference Tool Life is denoted by L symbol.
How to evaluate Reference Tool Life given Minimum Production Cost using this online evaluator? To use this online evaluator for Reference Tool Life given Minimum Production Cost, enter Tool Life (T), Production Cost of Each Component (Cp), Machining and Operating Rate (R), Setup Time (ts), Reference Cutting Velocity (V), Taylor's Tool Life Exponent (n) & Constant For Machining Condition (K) and hit the calculate button.
