| Step 4 • Enter set-up time for conventional tooling (minutes): | 10 | - | 2.5 | = | 7.5 | ||
| Step 5 • Enter insert change time (minutes): | 3 | - | 0.5 | = | 2.5 | ||
| Step 6 • Enter trial cut time (minutes): | 5 | - | 0 | = | 5 |
shifts per day days per year shifts per year
Step 7 • Multiply the number of shifts per day (see Step 2) 2 x 200 = 400
by number of days per year the machine will be used.

per shift shifts per year per year
Step 8 • Multiply the number of insert changes per shift (see Step 3) 10 x 400 = 4,000
by the number of shifts per year (see Step 7).

Step 9 • Multiply the number of insert changes per year 4,000 x 0.25 = 1,000
(see Step 8) by the % of required trial cuts.
