ModuMini-Turn Cost Saving Calculator

ModuMini-Turn Cost Saving Calculator

ModuMini-Turn quick change turning tool system is a great cost saver for small CNC lathe machining operations, which allows streamlined tool change processes and maximum machine utilization.

This simulator allows you to have an insight on how much man-hours and costs ModuMini-Turn can save, as well as productivity you can improve, for your Swiss-type lathe or small CNC lathe projects.
Simply enter your current data in the cells below, the simulator will automatically calculate the man-hours, costs, and productivity improvements annually with ModuMini-Turn in the result table.
Current machining data: Time and costs required with conventional toolholders

Data for routined insert change

Time required (in seconds) to change insert per toolholder For removing and installing conventional toolholders and inserts
The number of toolholder(s) in the machine, for which insert is changed
Total number of inserts changed per day per machine

Data for setup changes, if any

(i.e. a complete tool setup change for machining new parts)
Time required (in seconds) for setup change (for conventional toolholder) Mounting and removing of toolholders in the machine
The number of toolholders to be changed in the machine
The number of setup changes per day per machine

Data for operating time and costs of your business

The number of total operating days per year
The number of machines involved in this project
Labor cost per hour incurred to produce one part
Average machining time (in seconds) per part
Average cost per part

Constants used in the calculations

It needs to be mentioned that these constants are used for calculations.
Time required (in seconds) for ModuMini-Turn to change one insert 38 seconds per holder Includes removal and installation of the cutting head and insert
