The problem of machining structural elements with removal of metal layers with thickness less than 0.01 mm by carbide tools, when the conditional radius of the blade rounding is less than or equal to the thickness of the cut layer, is considered. These cutting conditions can be considered constricted which requires research into cutting forces and chip shape. The problem of recording and measuring small cutting forces arising during blade machining of small grooves that serve for gas drainage in the manufacture of rubber products is solved. To measure forces, a lever fixed in a universal dynamometer, which has a supporting support with small friction, is used. Value of force moment measured with dynamometer can be used for optimization of cutting conditions, selection of tool geometry when processing small relief elements. Dependences of lever system cutting forces and displacements on the use of lubricant-cooling liquids, values of front angles during planing and milling with small-size tools are investigated. Experimental discrepancies between theoretical calculations of cutting forces according to classical and modern reference data and fixed results with the use of cutting liquids during cutting with small values of feed for carbide tools are found

Chamfered cutting tools are used in high speed machining of hardened steels due to their wedge strength. An analytic model is proposed to investigate the influence of chamfer angle and cutting conditions on the cutting forces and temperature. The model is based on the tool geometry, cutting conditions, steady state temperature in the shear and chip-rake face contact zones, strain, strain rate, and the corresponding flow stress of the work material. With the aid of a slip line field model, the cutting and friction energy in the primary, secondary and chamfer zones are evaluated. By applying the minimum energy principle to total energy, the shear angle in the primary deformation zone is estimated. The corresponding shear strain, strain rate and flow stresses are identified. The model leads to the prediction of cutting forces and temperature produced in three deformation zones. The model is experimentally verified by high-speed orthogonal cutting tests applied to P20 mold steel using ISO S10 carbide and CBN cutting tools. It is shown that the analytic model is quite useful in selecting optimal chamfer angle and cutting speed which gives the minimum tool wear and relatively lower cutting forces.

The evolution of carbon/epoxy composites use in aeronautics requires a better comprehension of the machining conditions influence on these materials. This study aim is to establish, based on the experimentation, the relationship between machining conditions and the behavior of drilled 2D and 3D carbon/epoxy composites. Two drill geometries, seam introducing and a range of cutting speed and feed have been tested. The effect of each parameter has been assessed in terms of thrust force, moment (recorded during machining) and defects (performed by macroscopic analyses and quantified using delamination factor Fd). Experimental results have shown significant influences of feed and drill geometry on delamination reduction. The use of a spur drill and a low feed generates minor defects and produces the best results. Furthermore, stitching helps reduce damage inside the hole.

This paper reports the results of an experimental study of the tool wear and cutting forces in turning of Inconel 718 with coated carbide inserts. Inconel 718 is a difficult-to-cut nickel-based super-alloy commonly used in aerospace industry. The effects of cutting speed, feed rate and cutting tool geometry on tool wear have been widely analyzed in literature. Turning operations on complex components such as aircraft engines casings require the insert replacement at the end of each geometric feature manufacturing, independently from the actual tool wear level. For this reason, it is important to preserve tool integrity mainly in the most critical phase of operation (i.e., when the tool engages the workpiece). In fact, if the tool is damaged in this stage the quality of the whole operation is compromised. The attention has been focused on engage cutting conditions because the phenomenon that appears in this critical step plays a wide influence on tool integrity and, consequently, on the quality of the operation. For this purpose a nickel-based super alloy ring-workpiece, (Inconel 718), has been machined in lubricated cutting conditions by using a CNC lathe with carbide coated tools. Two variables have been investigated in this study: the Depth Of Cut (DOC) and the approaching Engage angle (En). In the studied working conditions Speed (S), Feed-rate (F) and removed volume (Vrim) were kept constant. Both tool wear and cutting forces evolution during cutting have been analyzed.

The tool geometry such as rake angles and cutting edge inclination angles play significant roles in determining machining performance. The task of selecting cutting tool inserts and cutting conditions is traditionally carried out on the basis of the experience of process planners with the help of data from machining handbooks and tool catalogues. This situation urges the need for development of some intelligent tooling system to reduce these inefficiencies for optimum economic and technological machining performance. A model of turning tool mechanism having the function of controllability in changing the tool inclination angle and tool approach angle is described. The mechanism is realized through the use of three specific slopes which work simultaneously to compensate the tool tip deviation due to the change of inclination angles so that the tool tip always stays at working point in space. Based on the ‘classical’ oblique cutting operation, analytically simulated prediction of the tangential cutting forces were presented with MATLAB software.

Cutting forces and machining error in contouring of concave and convex surfaces using helical ball end mills are theoretically investigated. The cutting forces are evaluated based on the theory of oblique cutting. The machining errors resulting from the tool deflections due to these forces are evaluated at various points of the machined surface. The influence of various cutting conditions and cutting modes on machining error is investigated and discussed.

This paper presents the additional work of the previous research in order to verify the previously obtained cutting condition by using the different cutting tool geometries. The effects of the cutting conditions with the dry cutting are monitored to obtain the proper cutting condition for the plain carbon steel with the coated carbide tool based on the consideration of the surface roughness and the tool life. The dynamometer is employed and installed on the turret of CNC turning machine to measure the in-process cutting forces. The in-process cutting forces are used to analyze the cutting temperature, the tool wear and the surface roughness. The experimentally obtained results show that the surface roughness and the tool wear can be well explained by the in-process cutting forces. Referring to the criteria, the experimentally obtained proper cutting condition is the same with the previous research except the rake angle and the tool nose radius.

In this paper, test method was used to study the distribution of cutting force while blade machined with 4-axis and 5-axis NC program. The main difference between the two program was given. The difference of machining forms between 4-axis and 5-axis has led to their cutting forces distribution were different. The change of cutting force in 4-axis machining was large while the 5-axis machining was relatively stable. 5-axis cutting force had no impact comparing with 4-axis, which is more suitable for blade machining.

This paper presents finite element method (FEM) and experimental analysis on high-speed milling for thin-wall machining of Al7075-T651. Changes in cutting forces, temperature, and chip morphology according to cutting conditions are analyzed using FEM. Results of machining experiments are analyzed in terms of cutting forces and surface integrity such as surface roughness and surface condition. Variables of cutting conditions are feed per tooth, spindle speed, and axial depth of cut. Cutting conditions to improve surface integrity were investigated by analysis on cutting forces and surface roughness, and machined surface condition.
