Drilling calculation formula
- 1. Processing time Tc [sec]
- Tc
- =
- 60 x H x π x DC x i
- f x vc x 1,000
- =
- 60 x H x i
- vf
- 2. Required power Pc [kW]
- Pc
- =
- HB x DC0.68 x vc1.27 xf0.59
- 36,000
- 3. Cutting speed vc [m/min]
- vc
- =
- π x DC x n
- 1,000
- 4. Spindle speed n [min-1]
- n
- =
- vc x 1,000
- π x DC
- 5. Feed per revolution f [mm/rev]
- f
- =
- vf x π x DC
- vc x 1,000
- =
- vf
- n
- 6. Feed rate vf [mm/min]
- vf
- =
- f x vc x 1,000
- π x DC
- =
- n x f
- 7. Axial force F [N]
- F = 0.24 x HB x DC0.95 x f 0.61 x 9.8
- 8. Torque Mc [N・m]
- Mc
- =
- Pc x 30 x DC
- vc
- =
- Pc x 30 x 103
- π x n
- 9. Chip discharge Q [cm3/min]
- Q
- =
- π2 x DC3
- vc x f x 106
- =
- π x DC2
- n x f x 1,000
