Question:medium

As the cutting speed increases, how do the machining cost and tooling cost behave?

Show Hint

- High cutting speeds $\rightarrow$ Shorter machining times $\rightarrow$ Machining cost drops. - High cutting speeds $\rightarrow$ Accelerated tool wear rate $\rightarrow$ Tooling cost rises. The minimum point of the combined cost curve defines the economic cutting speed.

  • Machining cost decreases while tooling cost increases
  • Both machining cost and tooling cost both increases
  • Both machining cost and tooling cost both decreases
  • Machining cost increases while tooling cost decreases
