Tool Life for Minimum Production Time Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Tool Life = Time to Change One Tool*(1-Taylor's Tool Life Exponent)/Taylor's Tool Life Exponent
T = tc*(1-n)/n
This formula uses 3 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.
Time to Change One Tool - (Measured in Second) - Time to Change One Tool is the measure of time it takes to change one tool during machining.
Taylor's Tool Life Exponent - Taylor's Tool Life Exponent is an experimental exponent that helps in quantifying the rate of Tool Wear.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Time to Change One Tool: 1.6 Minute --> 96 Second (Check conversion here)
Taylor's Tool Life Exponent: 0.2 --> No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
T = tc*(1-n)/n --> 96*(1-0.2)/0.2
Evaluating ... ...
T = 384
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
384 Second -->6.4 Minute (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
6.4 Minute <-- Tool Life
(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
