Machining practies in Malaysia industries / Tony Jerry and Norizah Mohd Ghani

Some of the most important problems of the workshop involved the choice of cutting speeds and feeds, tool geometry, tool and work materials, cutting fluids and machine tool themselves. There appear to be only three basic considerations associated with all of these decisions: - 1. The chosen cutting conditions must be capable of producing part and that meet the required specifications of size, shape and finish. 2. The required production schedules must be met. 3. The parts should be produced at the lowest possible cost.
