ASSIGNMENT 7-TOOL PATHS, CYCLE TIME, PART TIME

This week you need to determine how long it will take to make your part. The total time can be broken

down into several categories. Some, such as machining time, can and should be very predictable from the

software simulation. Others, such as preparing the blanks, can have large variation. For this assignment,

please to the following:

Create Tool Paths

Generate CAM/tool paths for your part. Include enough detail such that you can reasonably estimate the

cycle time. E.g. include roughing, finish, and drilling cycles as necessary. Don't be overly concerned with

flaws in the cycles. Use appropriate feeds and speeds.
