T = (1-n)*(CCT+Ct)/(n*Ct)
This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Tool Life - (Measured in Second) - Tool Life is the period of time for which the cutting edge, affected by the cutting procedure, retains its cutting capacity between sharpening operations.
Taylor's Tool Life Exponent - Taylor's Tool Life Exponent is an experimental exponent that helps in quantifying the rate of Tool Wear.
Cost of changing each Tool - The cost of changing each Tool is the cost that arises due to the time taken by the operator to change one tool when he is paid by the hour.
Cost of a Tool - The Cost of a Tool is simply the cost of one tool being used for machining.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Taylor's Tool Life Exponent: 0.55 --> No Conversion Required
Cost of changing each Tool: 549900 --> No Conversion Required
Cost of a Tool: 100 --> No Conversion Required
