Right Answer is: D

SOLUTION

Explanation:
Tooling:

Tooling is the process of designing and engineering the tools that are necessary to manufacture parts or components.

In order to produce non-productive time to zero level, quickly changeable tool should be used.

Types of CNC tools are:

Preset Tools:

  • This tool is used to the preset axial and radial position of the tool tip on the tool holder. 
  • Once this is done, the tool holder is ready to be mounted on the machine and produce a known dimension.
  • Accuracy in the order of ± 0.0002 mm can be quickly and easily maintained.

Qualified Tools:

  • These tools have cutting edge or tip maintained at a fixed distance within a tolerance of ± 0.05 mm with respect to the reference surface of the holder. 
  • No presetting is required, therefore investment is less. 
  • Control dimensions of the tool are nominal and fixed, hence programming is easy.
  • These tools need not be measured individually.
