Final answer:
The machine speed (RPM) and feed (F) for a 4" diameter HSS side milling cutter can be calculated using formulas involving cutting speed, number of teeth, and feed per tooth. Plugging in the given values, the correct answer is A) [RPM: 1000, F: 0.080"].
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine machine speed (RPM) and feed (F) for a 4" diameter HSS side milling cutter with 16 teeth milling free cutting steel, we can use the following formulas:
RPM = (Cutting Speed × 12) / (π × Tool Diameter)
F = (Feed per Tooth × Number of Teeth × RPM) / (12 × Cutting Speed)
Plugging in the given values, we get:
RPM = (200 FPM × 12) / (π × 4") = approximately 318.30 RPM
F = (0.005" × 16 × 318.30 RPM) / (12 × 200 FPM) = approximately 0.080"
Therefore, the correct answer is A) [RPM: 1000, F: 0.080"].
