The life of tool is affected by many factors such as: cutting speed, depth of cut, chip thickness, tool geometry, material or the cutting fluid and rigidity of machine. Physical and chemical properties of work material influence tool life by affecting form stability and rate of wear of tools. The nose radius tends to affect tool life.
1. Cutting speed: Cutting speed has the greatest influence on tool life. As the cutting speed increases the temperature also rises. The heat is more concentrated on the tool than on the work and the hardness of the tool metrix changes so the relative increase in the hardness of the work accelerates the abrasive action. The criterion of the wear is dependent on the cutting speed because the predominant wear may be wear for flank or crater if cutting speed is increased.
2. Feed and depth of cut: The tool life is influenced by the feed rate also. With a fine feed the area of chip passing over the tool face is greater than that of coarse feed for a given volume of swarf removal, but to offset this chip will be greater hence the resultant pressure will nullify the advantage.
3. Tool Geometry: The tool life is also affected by tool geometry. A tool with large rake angle becomes weak as a large rake reduces the tool cross-section and the amount of metal to absorb the heat.
4. Tool material: Physical and chemical properties of work material influence tool life by affecting form stability and rate of wear of tool.
5. Cutting fluid: It reduces the coefficient of friction at the chip tool interface and increases tool life.

the types of tool post on lathes can be classified as single screw tool post four bolt tool post open side tool post four way tool post
tool post is used to handle the tool on the lathe machine
There is no known abbreviation for the word tool.
Tool life is influenced by several factors, including cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut, which affect the heat generated during machining. Material properties of both the tool and workpiece, such as hardness and toughness, also play a crucial role. Additionally, cooling methods, tool geometry, and environmental conditions can impact wear rates and overall tool longevity. Proper tool maintenance and selection are essential for optimizing tool life.
Machinability refers to the ease of which a material may be milled, drilled, turned, etc. These are all machining operations. Materials with a lower machinability cause less tool wear, require less cutting force and power, provide a better surface finish, and provide better chip disposal.

Tool life is greatly shortened when used for both roughing and finishing thus affecting dimensional accuracy and surface finish badly as tool begin to wear off or get chipped, whereas, tool life gets longer when different tools are being used for roughing and finishing again dimensional accuracy and surface finish is affected but this time by achieving good results.
Alloying elements in tool steels are added to enhance specific properties such as hardness, wear resistance, toughness, and corrosion resistance. They help improve the performance and durability of the steel in various cutting, forming, and shaping applications. Alloying elements can also influence the steel's machinability and heat-treating characteristics.
n is found by using experimental data. The whole point of Taylor's tool life equation is to predict the tool life for different spindle speeds.
The "life hammer", like the "jaws of life," is a tool that is used in cases of life threatening emergencies. When necessary, the tool is capable of freeing an individual from beneath a trapped vehicle.
yes
Carbide, ceramic or diamond cutting tools will give longer life.
