High-speed metal cutting processes can cause extremely rapid heating of the work material. Temperature on the machined surface is critical for surface integrity and the performance of a precision component. However, the temperature of a machined surface is challenging for in-situ measurement.So, the finite element(FE) method used to analyze the unique nonlinear problems during cutting process. In terms of heat-force coupled problem, the thermo-plastic FE model was proposed to predict the cutting temperature distribution using separated iterative method. Several key techniques such as material constitutive relations, tool-chip interface friction and separation and damage fracture criterion were modeled. Based on the updated Lagrange and arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) method, the temperature field in high speed orthogonal cutting of carbon steel AISI-1045 were simulated. The simulated results showed good agreement with the experimental results, which validated the precision of the process simulation method. Meanwhile, the influence of the process variables such as cutting speed, cutting depth, etc. on the temperature distribution was investigated.

An orthogonal cutting model was presented to simulate high-speed machining (HSM) process based on metal cutting theory and finite element method (FEM). The residual stresses in the machined surface layer were obtained with various cutting speeds using finite element simulation. The variations of residual stresses in the cutting direction and beneath the workpiece surface were studied. It is shown that the thermal load produced at higher cutting speed is the primary factor affecting the residual stress in the machined surface layer.

Abstract High speed cutting (HSC) technology has the characteristics of high material removal rates and high machining precision. In order to study the relationships between chip morphology and machining surface characteristic in high speed cutting of superalloy Inconel718. High-speed orthogonal cutting experiment are carried out by used a high speed cutting device based on split Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). The specimen surfaces and collected chips were then detected with optical microscope, scanning electron microscope and three-dimensional surface profile measuring instrument. The results show that within the experimental parameters (cutting speed from 8–16m/s, depth of cut 0.1–0.5mm), the obtained chips are sawtooth chips and periodic micro-ripple appear on the machined surface. With the cutting speed increases, machining surface roughness is decreases from 1.4 to 0.99μm, and the amplitude of periodic ripples also decreases. With the cutting depth increases, the machining surface roughness increases from 0.96 to 5.12μm and surface topography becomes worse. With the increase of cutting speed and depth of cut, the chips are transform from continues sawtooth to sawtooth fragment. By comparing the frequency of surface ripples and sawtooth chips, it is found that they are highly consistent.

A fiber-optic two-color pyrometer with high spatial and temporal resolution has been applied to measure temperatures at an external turning process. Different measurement positions have been realized at the chip and the workpiece. The measurements have been performed at three different workpiece materials: carbon steel AISI 1045, aluminum alloy AA 7075, and titanium alloy Ti6Al4V. The influences of different parameters like cutting speed, feed, and position of the measurement spot on the temperatures have been investigated. The cutting speed has been increased from conventional values up to 100 m/s for AISI 1045, 117 m/s for AA 7075, and 10 m/s for Ti6Al4V. Additionally, a review of radiation thermometry techniques and applications regarding time resolved temperature measurements in metal cutting will be presented.

This study investigates the contributions of high-speed cutting and a high rake angle to the improvement of the cutting performance of natural rubber. Orthogonal cutting experiments were conducted at cutting speeds ranging from 1.0 m/s to 141.1 m/s. The rake angles examined were 0°, 20° and 50°. The following results were obtained from the experiments. The cutting ratio is almost 1.0 regardless of the cutting speed and rake angle. The cutting force rises rapidly as the cutting speed increases. High-speed cutting or a high rake angle eliminates tear defects on the machined surface and reduces chipping defects at the entry edge of the workpiece. An uncut portion, however, always remains at the exit edge. The cross-sectional shape of the machined surface becomes concave. Besides, the machined surface comes into broad contact with the clearance face. These degradations in the shape accuracy arise from the large elastic distortion that occurs in the shear zone. Increasing the cutting speed improves the flatness of the machined surface. Although an analysis of the cutting mechanism reveals that the apparent stiffness of the material in the shear zone is enhanced with increasing the cutting speed, a very high cutting speed worsens the shape accuracy because of the development of shock waves. Depending on the rake angle, there is a critical cutting speed that should not be exceeded to maximize the cutting performance of natural rubber.

The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of cutting speed and uncut chip thickness on cutting performance. A Finite Element Method (FEM) based on the ABAQUS explicit software which involves Johnson-Cook material mode and Coulombs friction law was used to simulate of High Speed Machining (HSM) of AISI 1045 steel. In this simulation work, feed rate ranging from 0.05 mm/rev to 0.13 mm/rev and cutting speed ranging from 200 m/min to 600 m/min at three different cutting speeds were investigated. From the simulation results it was observed that increasing feed rate and cutting speed lead to increase temperature and stress distribution at tool/chip interface. The results obtained from this study are highly essential to predict machining induced residual stresses and thermo-mechanical deformation related properties on the machined surface.

mprovements in modeling and simulation of metal cutting processes are required in advanced manufacturing technologies. A three dimensional fully thermal mechanical coupled finite element model had been applied to simulate and analyze the cutting temperature for high speed milling of TiAl6V4 titanium alloy. The temperature distribution induced in the tool and the workpiece was predicted. The effects of the milling speed and radial depth of cut on the maximum cutting temperature in the tool was investigated. The results show that only a rising of temperature in the lamella of the machined surface is influenced by the milling heat. The maximum temperature in the tool increases with increasing radial depth of cut and milling speed which value is 310°C at a speed of 60 m/min and increases to 740°C at 400m/min. The maximum temperature is only effective on a concentrated area at the cutting edge and the location of the maximum temperature moves away from the tool tip for higher radial depths of milling. The predicted temperature distribution during the cutting process is consistent with the experimental results given in the literature. The results obtained from this study provide a fundamental understanding the process mechanics of HSM of TiAl6V4 titanium alloys.

The orthogonal cutting tests of oxygen free copper with a cutting speed of from 1 m/s to 210 m/s were performed. The effect of the high-speed cutting on the improvement over the quality of the machined surface, which was evaluated by the thickness of the plastic flow layer and the surface roughness, was examined. By employing the simple shear plane model, the cutting mechanism was analyzed. The results were compared with the results for cutting of aluminum alloy obtained previously. For oxygen free copper, the resultant cutting force does not increase in high-speed cutting. However, the friction angle on the tool-chip interface rises clearly in high-speed cutting. This paper discusses the reason for the increase in the friction angle at the tool-chip interface by investigating the stress and temperature fields on the shear plane and the tool-chip interface.

Orthogonal-cutting experiments using SAE 1112 free-cutting steel, 2024-T4 and 6061-T6 aluminum alloys, and alpha-brass (85 Cu-15 Zn) at feeds of 0.002 to 0.010 ipr, were performed on a lathe with 18-4-1 high-speed-steel cutting tools. The mean cutting speeds and rake angles for SAE 1112 varied from 33.7 to 170.8 fpm and 5 to 40 deg, respectively, while the remainder of the alloys were tested at conditions yielding a continuous chip without a built-up edge at speeds ranging from approximately 470 to 790 fpm. It was found that the angle λ between the shear plane and the resultant tool force R was only approximately constant for each test condition and varied with cutting speed. Hence the equation λ = ϕ + β − α = const and the linear relationship between ϕ and β − α are only approximately satisfied. Furthermore, neither the Ernst and Merchant minimum-energy criterion, nor the Lee and Shaffer nor the Hill ideal plastic-solid solution, is in agreement with all the experimental observations.

Machining process usually induces Severe Plastic Deformation (SPD) in the chip and machined surface, which will further lead to rapid increase of dislocation density and alteration of grain size in micro-scale. This paper presents a novel FE model to simulate the dislocation density and grain size evolution in the machined surface and subsurface generated from the orthogonal cutting process of Al6061-T6. A dislocation density model of microstructure evolution is implemented in the FE model as a user-defined subroutine written in FORTRAN. The model can predict the microstructure characteristic in a machined surface. The predicted chip thicknesses, cutting forces, distributions of dislocation density and grain size are verified by the experimental tests of the chip, forces, microstructure and micro-hardness. The predicted results show that the dislocation density decreases along the depths of machined surface; whereas the grain size shows an opposite tendency. Dislocation density in machined surface decreases and grain size increases when cutting speed increases. Higher cutting speeds are associated with thinner deformation layers. Dislocation density in a machined surface decreases initially and then increases with feed rates. Dislocation density increases significantly when cutting tool has a larger negative rake angle. The bigger negative rake angles further lead to the thicker deformation layers in machined surface.
