In the process of machining rectangular microchannels, severe friction occurs between the chip and the side face of the machined microchannel. The cutting forces have great effect on the miniature cutting tool. Thus, 3D FEM is adopted to study the cutting forces. The influences of the depth of the machined microchannel t, the cutting depth ac, the cutting width aw , the rake angle ○o and the cutting speed ν on the cutting forces are investigated. Results show that the main cutting force Fz and the thrust force Fy increase with the increase of t, ac and aw and have no obvious change with ν. Moreover, Fz decreases and Fy increases as γ○ increases.

AbstractThe cutting force components and the cutting moment on the cutting tool were measured during the orthogonal machining of ice with cutting tools inclined at negative rake angles. The variables included the cutting depth (< 1 mm), the cutting speed (0.01 ms−1to 1 ms−1), and the rake angles (–15° to –60°). Results of the experiments showed that the cutting force components were approximately independent of cutting speed. The resultant cutting force on the tool was in a direction approximately normal to the cutting face of the tool. The magnitude of the resultant force increased with the negative rake angle. Photographs of ice-chip formation revealed continuous and segmented chips at different cutting depths.

In this study, the simulation results are useful for both researchers and machine tool manufacturers for improving the design of cutting parameters. Finite-element analysis (FEA) that used in this study of simulation the cutting parameters and tool geometries effects on the force and temperature in turning AISI 1040. The simulation parameters that used in this study are cutting speed (75 - 300 m/min),feed rate (0.2 mm/rev), cut depth (0.75-1.5 mm), and rake angle (0-20 °). The results of cutting forces were (240 – 520 N), the temperature were (300-420 °C), and the heat rate (14202.3-83772.8 W/mm3) on the cutting edge. The simulation process also show that the increase of cutting speed leads to decrease in the cutting forces, while it has increasing in temperature, and heat rate. Also, the results show that the increase of cutting depth associated increase the cutting force only.

In this study, the slip-line field model developed for orthogonal machining with a worn cutting tool was experimentally investigated. Minimum and maximum values of five slip-line angles ( θ1, θ2, δ2, η and ψ) were calculated. The friction forces that were caused by flank wear land, chip up-curl radii and chip thicknesses were calculated by solving the model. It was specified that the friction force increased with increase in flank wear rate and uncut chip thickness and it decreased a little with increase in cutting speed and rake angle. The chip up-curl radius increased with increase in flank wear rate and it decreased with increase in uncut chip thickness. The chip thickness increased with increase in flank wear rate and uncut chip thickness. Besides, the chip thickness increased with increase in rake angle and it decreased with increase in cutting speed.

Distribution Of Stress

As cutting tool penetrates into workpiece, stress waves is induced and propagates in the workpiece. This paper aims to propose a two-dimensional discrete element method to analyze the stress waves effects during high speed milling. The dependence of the stress waves propagation characteristics on rake angle and cutting speed was studied. The simulation results show that the energy distribution of stress waves is more concentrated near the tool tip as the rake angle or the cutting speed increases. In addition, the density of initial cracks in the workpiece near the cutting tool increases when the cutting speed is higher. The high speed milling experiments indicate that the chip size decreases as the cutting speed increases, which is just qualitatively consistent with the simulation.

Abstract. Ultrasound-assisted cutting has been used to cut materials with high precision, improved quality and reduced cutting forces. The research objective was to investigate the effects of high-frequency vibrations on the cutting force and cutting energy of switchgrass and miscanthus stems. Laboratory experiments were conducted on individual biomass stems at cutting speeds between 3 and 400 mm/s. An experimental cutting system with an ultrasound generator, an ultrasonic blade, a load cell, and a data acquisition system was developed. The custom designed blade was 5-cm wide and vibrated at 19.551 kHz with 2.8 µm tip vibration amplitude. There were significant measured differences in the cutting forces and cutting energies between conventional cutting and ultrasonic cutting of switchgrass and miscanthus stems (p &lt; 0.05). These results suggest that the use of high-frequency vibrations reduce cutting force and cutting energy of both switchgrass and miscanthus stems. Ultrasound-assisted cutting reduced the cutting energy of switchgrass by 66.85% at 100 mm/s and miscanthus by 80.58% at 30 mm/s. However, ultrasonic cutting did not have a significant effect on the cutting force and cutting energy when the cutting speed was equal to or greater than the blade tip vibration speed. The results of this research should be useful for adapting the ultrasonic technology in biomass harvesting, particle size reduction, and processing equipment.

Edge Defects

In this paper, a finite element method was used to dynamically simulate the process of the edge defects formation during orthogonal cutting SiCp/Al composites. The influence of the cutting speed, cutting depth and rake angle of the PCD insert on the size of the edge defects have been investigated by using scanning electron. According to the simulated results, it can be provided that the cutting layer material has an effect on transfer stress and hinder the chip formation in the critical transition stage, and the critical transition point and distance are defined in this stage. The negative shear phenomenon is found when the chip transit to the edge defects in the flexure deformation stage, so the process of the chip formation is the basis of the edge defects formation. In addition, the relationship between the nucleation and propagation direction of the crack and the variation of the edge defect shape on the workpiece was investigated by theory, and it found that the negative shear angle formation is the primary cause of the edge defect formation. A mixed mode crack is found in the crack propagation stage. The sizes of edge defects were measured by the experiment and simulation, and the edge defect size decrease with the increasing of tool rake angle, while increase with increasing cutting depth and cutting speed.

The Impact

In this chapter, the impact of cutting parameters (depth of cut, cutting speed, feed, flow, rake angle, lead angle) on cutting forces in the turning process with regard to ASTM B574 (Hastelloy C-22) material has been investigated. Variance analysis has been applied in order to determine the factors affecting the cutting forces. The optimization of the parameters affecting the surface roughness has been obtained using response surface methodology (RSM) based on the Taguchi orthogonal experimental design. The accuracy of the developed models required for the estimation of the force values (Fx, Fy, Fz) is quite successful. In this study, where the R2 value has been used as the criterion/measure, accuracy values of 93.35%, 95.03%, and 95.09% have been achieved for Fx, Fy, and Fz, respectively. As a result of the ANOVA analysis, the most effective parameters for Fx at a 95% confidence interval are depth of cut, feed rate, flow, and rake angle. The most effective parameter for Fy is depth of cut, while the most effective parameters for Fz are depth of cut, feed rate, and flow, respectively.

Milling Forces

Cutting forces is one of the important physical phenomena in metal cutting process. It directly affects the surface quality of machining, tool life and cutting stability. The orthogonal experiments of cutting forces and influence factors with indexable and solid end mill were accomplished and the predictive model of milling force was established during high speed end milling 7050-T7451 aluminum alloy. The paper makes research mainly on the influence which the cutting speed, cutting depth and feed have on the cutting force. The experimental results of single factor showed that the cutting forces increase earlier and drop later with the increase of cutting speed, and the cutting speed of inflexion for 7050-T7451 is 1100m/min. As axial cutting depth, radial cutting depth and feed rate increase, the cutting force grows in different degree. The cutting force is particularly sensitive to axial cutting depth and slightly to the radial cutting depth.
