A mobile Android application tool for operators of turning lathes, CNC operators/programmers etc.
- Possible to choose 1 of 14 different languages at any time (machine translated)
- Calculates the time for a lathe cut by using given processing data
- Calculation of the input data also gives results for surface fineness, material removal rate, chip thicknesses, cutting forces, torque and power
- Possible process-data that can be changed are diameter, cutting length, cutting speed, spindle speed, feed per revolution, feed per minute, nose radius, surface fineness, cutting process, cutting depth, entering angle, rake angle, material, specific cutting force (kc) and efficiency
- Handles both of the systems Metric and Imperial
- Possible to convert between these two systems
- Converts between cutting speed and spindle speed
- Converts between feed rate per revolution and feed rate per minute
- Calculates an approximate surface fineness from given nose radius and feed rate
- Calculates an approximate feed rate from a given nose radius and surface quality
- Calculates material removal rate from given data
- Calculates maximum chip thickness and average (equivalent) chip thickness from given data
- Calculates a reasonably correct specific cutting force from selected material, tool rake angle, and average chip thickness
- Calculates approximate cutting forces from given data
- Calculates approximate torque and power from given data
- All selectable values, except one, can be changed with the input of absolute value or with buttons for incremental change
- Required updates of affected values occur immediately
- Switching between change methods is made by a long tap on the value's row
- Possibility to get a short explanation about a value with a fast double tap on the value's row
- Possibility to get explanations of other result values with a quick double-tap in the specific area shown
- Ability to select time for viewing highlighted text and active buttons
- Ability to select color theme
- Ability to adjust color tones for the color themes
- Possibility to change the appearance of highlighted sub-values
- Possible to create new default values
- All settings are stored for the next use of the app
- Possible to continue with the last session when starting the app
