HOMEWORK SOLUTION# 3

I&ME 471
Due 3/31
Note: Appendix A7 will be required to solve the problems in this group.
1. (12.5pts) Write the part program to drill the holes in the part shown in Figure 1. The
part is 12.0 mm thick. Cutting speed = 100 m/min and feed = 0.06 mm/rev. Use the
lower left corner of the part as the origin in the x-y axis system. Write the part program
in the word address format using absolute positioning. The program style should be
similar to Example A7.1.
Hint: you will need to calculate the N.

2. (Bonus: 10pts) The outline of the part shown in Figure 2 is to be profile milled using a
30 mm diameter end mill with four teeth. The part is 15 mm thick. Cutting speed = 150
mm/min and feed = 0.085 mm/tooth. Use the lower left corner of the part as the origin
in the x-y axis system. Two of the holes in the part have already been drilled and will
be used for clamping the part during profile milling. Use absolute positioning. The
program style should be similar to Example A7.2 in your book.
Hint: As stated, two of the holes drilled will be used to clamp the workpart for milling
the outside edges. The part will be fixtured so that its top surface is 40 mm above the
surface of the machine tool table, and the x-y plane of the axis system will be defined
40 mm above the table surface. As given, a 30 mm diameter end mill with four teeth
will be used. The cutter is assumed to have a side tooth engagement length of 40 mm.
Throughout the machining sequence the bottom tip of the cutter will be positioned 25
mm below the part top surface, which corresponds to z = -25 mm. Since the part is 15
mm thick, this z position will allow the side cutting edges of the milling cutter to cut
the full thickness of the part during profile milling. Cutting speed is specified as 150
m/min. Rotational speed of the cutter is calculated as N = 150/(30π x 10-3) = 1592
rev/min. Given a feed = 0.085 mm/tooth, feed rate is calculated as 1592(4)(0.085) =
541 mm/min. Cutter diameter data has been manually entered into offset register 05. At
the beginning of the job, the cutter will be positioned so that its center tip is at a target
point located at x = -50, y = -50, and z = + 10. The program begins with the tool
positioned at this location.
