A 2D fully thermal mechanical coupled finite element model is applied to study the influence of material parameters on serrate chip formation during high speed cutting process. The serrated chip formation during high speed machining was predicted. Of interests are the effects of thermal conductivity, specific heat and density. Results showed significant influence of these thermophysical parameters on the serrated chip phenomena, especially in the case of the density. Increasing thermal conductivity specific heat and density lead to a decreasing degree of segmentation. The influence of the thermal conductivity on the cutting force and the specific heat on maximum temperatures in the shear band is also discussed.

In this paper, a novel model combining the microstructure prediction model and a modified constitutive model of the Johnson-Cook (JC) model was developed and embedded into FEM software via the user subroutine. The chip formation and microstructure evolution in high speed cutting of Ti-6Al-4V alloy were simulated based on the presented model. The results indicated that dynamic recrystallization mainly happened in ASBs, where the grain size had a big decline. According to the variation of cutting temperature and grain size of microstructure, the mechanism of the adiabatic shear bands (ASBs) formation was investigated deeply and concluded that dynamic recrystallization was the root cause of the serrated chip formation.

A deep understanding of adiabatic shear fracture (ASF) during serrated chip formation is essential to explore the material removal mechanism of high speed cutting (HSC). This paper aims to reveal the microscopic details of ASF in serrated chips. The material to investigate was AISI 1045 steel of different hardness grades, and the micro-structural analysis was conducted using optical and scanning electronic microscopes. The investigation showed that at the hardness of HRC50, most fractured surfaces were covered by a large number of dimples elongated along the shear direction, indicating that the fundamental cause of the serrated chip generation is the deformation localization of the adiabatic shear followed by ductile damage fracture in primary shear zones. The higher the material hardness is, the easier the adiabatic shear and ductile fracture take place. A new model was then proposed to interpret the ductile fracture due to adiabatic shear governed by the nucleation, growth and coalescence of micro-voids during serrated chip formation.

The development of chip morphology, critical cutting condition of adiabatic shear during serrated chip formation and cutting forces were observed and measured by high speed turning experiment for 30CrNi3MoV hardened steel. Results show that the cutting speed and rake angle are leading factors to influence chip morphology and cutting forces. With the increase of cutting speed, the continuous band chip transforms into serrated chip at a certain critical value. As the rake angle is changed from positive to negative, the critical cutting speed of adiabatic shear significantly decreases, the cutting forces abruptly reduces when the serrated chip forms. The results from predicting critical cutting speed using the critical cutting condition criterion of adiabatic shear in metal cutting process show that the leading reason of serrated chip formation is that the adiabatic shear fracture repeatedly occurs in the primary shear zone.
