Power required for Machining Operation Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Machining Power = Metal removal rate*Energy Required for Unit Volume Removal
P_m = Z_w*P_s
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Machining Power - (Measured in Watt) - Machining Power is defined as the power required at the Tooltip to complete different Machining processes.
Metal removal rate - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Metal removal rate (MRR) is the amount of material removed per time unit (usually per minute) when performing machining operations such as using a lathe or milling machine.
Energy Required for Unit Volume Removal - (Measured in Watt) - Energy Required for Unit Volume Removal is the electrical energy required to remove unit volume of material from workpiece.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Metal removal rate: 0.16 Cubic Meter per Second --> 0.16 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Energy Required for Unit Volume Removal: 74.375 Kilowatt --> 74375 Watt (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

P_m = Z_w*P_s --> 0.16*74375

Evaluating ... ...

P_m = 11900

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

11900 Watt -->11.9 Kilowatt (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

11.9 Kilowatt <-- Machining Power

Average Material Removal Rate given Depth of Cut

Go Material Removal Rate in Turning Operation = pi*Feed Rate in Machining*Depth of Cut in Machining*Rotational Frequency of the Workpiece*(Machined Surface Diameter+Depth of Cut in Machining)

Average Material Removal Rate given Depth of Cut for Boring Operation

Go Material Removal Rate in Boring Operation = pi*Feed Rate in Machining*Depth of Cut in Machining*Rotational Frequency of the Workpiece*(Machined Surface Diameter-Depth of Cut in Machining)

Mean Cutting Speed

Go Mean Cutting Speed in Turning = Workpiece Revolution*pi*(Work Surface Diameter+Machine Surface Diameter)/2

Energy per Unit Material Removal given Efficiency of Motor Drive System

Go Energy Required for Unit Volume Removal = Electrical Power Consumed in Machining*Overall Efficiency of Prime Mover/Metal removal rate

Average Material Removal Rate using Uncut Chip Cross-Section Area

Go Material Removal Rate in Turning Operation = Cross-Sectional Area of the Uncut Chip*Mean Cutting Speed

Cutting Speed Angle using Resultant Cutting Speed

Go Cutting Speed Angle = acos(Cutting Velocity/Resultant Cutting Velocity)

Overall Efficiency of Machine Tool and Motor Drive System

Go Overall Efficiency of Prime Mover = Machining Power/Electrical Power Consumed in Machining

Cutting Speed in Turning

Go Cutting Speed = pi*Diameter of Workpiece*Spindle Speed

Power required for Machining Operation

Go Machining Power = Metal removal rate*Energy Required for Unit Volume Removal

Cross sectional Area of Uncut Chip

Go Cross-sectional Area of Uncut Chip = Feed Rate*Depth of Cut

Power required for Machining Operation Formula

Machining Power = Metal removal rate*Energy Required for Unit Volume Removal
P_m = Z_w*P_s

Reducing Machining Power

A Machine conserves energy when it isn't making chips, but profitability comes from maximizing the amount of a machine's metal-cutting time. Therefore, reducing cycle time is another method for reducing power use, and one way to achieve that is by machining at a high spindle speed.
