10. You are the process planner for a small-to-medium sized sub-contracting
manufacturer who specializes in the precision manufacturing of parts for the
aerospace and petrochemical industries. You have been given the adapter
ring drawing (see Figure.1) and asked to develop the process plan. The raw
material is supplied in a Ø160 X 50 mm billet and the general surface finish
has been specified as 10.0 ±1.0 µm. This is processed through a traditional
job-shop environment a wide-range of production equipment but no CNC
capabilities. Assume surface cutting speed, feed, tool material, and depth of
cut appropriately. (10 marks)
