A tapered surface is to be turned on an automatic lathe the


In the taper turning job of previous Problem 22.4, sup-pose that the automatic lathe with surface speed control is not available and a conventional lathe must be used. Determine the rotational speed that would be required to complete the job in exactly the same time as your answer to part (a) of that problem.

Problem 22.4

A tapered surface is to be turned on an automatic lathe. The workpiece is 750 mm long with minimum and maximum diameters of 100 mm and 200 mm at opposite ends. The automatic controls on the lathe permit the surface speed to be maintained at a constant value of 200 m/min by adjusting the rotational speed as a function of work piece diameter. Feed = 025 mm/rev, and depth of cut = 3.0 mm. The rough geometry of the piece has already been formed, and this operation will be the final cut. Determine

(a) the time required to turn the taper, and

(b) the rotational speeds at the be-ginning and end of the cut.
