The tool plays an important role in cutting process. The aim of this paper is to investigate the effect of tool geometrical parameters on the chip formation and cutting force with orthogonal cutting models. The large deformation Rigid-visco-plastic FEM program DEFORM-2DTM is used, and thermo-mechanical coupling effect are considered. The chip separation from workpiece is implemented by remeshing. Contrary to traditional cutting simulation, the workpiece is moved and the tool is fixed, which is consistent with actual process. The effects of tool rake angle on the chip geometry and cutting force are analyzed. The simulated cutting forces are compared with results in other references. The research results are a help to cutting process study and cutting tool design.

The nickel-based superalloy GH80A has been widely used in kinds of aeronautical key structures because of its high yield stress and anti-fatigue performance at high temperature. However, it is also a typical difficult-to-cut material. In order to improve cutting process, kinds of methods have been applied to study cutting process including experimental approach and finite element method (FEM). In this paper, a comparison of chip formation is carried out between traditional Johnson-Cook (JC) model and Isotropic model. Besides, effects of tool rake angle and friction coefficient on chip formation are investigated by Isotropic model. FEM predicated results such as stress and cutting temperature are also analyzed. Relative turning tests are performed and comparison of chip morphology between FEM and experiment is carried out.

A orthogonal cutting of a kind of difficult-to-cut material is simulated using a finite element model, which is considered dynamic effects, thermo-mechanical coupling, tool-chip friction, chip separation criteria. Marc program is the computational tool in the model. Johnson-Cook’s model is employed as the constitutive law for the workpiece material. The frictional behavior of the sticking and sliding tool-chip interface is described by Coulomb’s law. Remeshing technique and mesh adaptive technique are also used. The research mainly specializes plane strain and continuous flow chip. The emphasis is placed on the parametric modeling of tool and workpiece. Then the cutting force and temperature in cutting process from initial state to steady state is conducted by simulation. Finally the Experimental value is compared with the simulated data.

A two-dimensional macro-mechanical finite element (FE) model is developed to study the orthogonal cutting process of CFRP unidirectional laminate by the finite element software ABAQUS. The CFRP laminate is defined as an equivalent orthotropic, homogeneous single-phase material. On the basis of composite unidirectional laminate plane stress-strain and strength theory, the author adopts Hashin progressive damage criteria in the FE model. Based on the results of finite element simulation, the changes of cutting force in the chip formation process of CFRP laminate are analyzed, the Hashin damage in the cutting process and the influences of fiber orientation on cutting force, chip formation mechanism and sub-surface damage are explored as well. The comparison between this paper and previous related research shows that the results have a reasonable agreement with the previous achievements.

This paper presents a rigid-plastic finite element method for orthogonal cutting process by adopting Lagrange method. The rigid-plastic FEM analysis model is established and the rigid-plastic FEM analysis toolkit was developed. Meanwhile, two relevant key problems are discussed systematically, including the rule of chip-workpiece separation and the criterion of tool-chip separation. At last, a simulation example of planing an aluminium alloy (ZL-301) workpiece was conducted. The effects of the cutting stroke, the tool rake angle and the friction coefficient on chip were observed. The numerical simulation results have a good agreement with their experimental ones. It is indicated that the presented FEM model and algorithm are efficient and correct.

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 forces involved in a cutting process are related, for example, with the power consumption, with the final quality of the workpiece and with the chip geometry obtained, since these forces determine the compression experimented by the chip and therefore its final geometry. The orthogonal cutting process assisted with a High Speed Filmation (HSF) permit obtains a digital filmation of the process with high magnification. This filmation permits to obtain a measurement of the longitudinal changes produced in the chip. This deforms are related with the Shrinkage Factor, ζ. And in this case the Stabler hypothesis is enabled, by that using the shear angle and the rake angle is possible obtain a value of the Shrinkage Factor in a different conditions.

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.

Shear angle is classically considered constant. In the study, a series of straight orthogonal cutting tests of ultra-precision machining revealed that shear angle cyclically evolved with each lamellar chip formation, i.e. cyclic shear angle. It grew up from an initial shear angle of 0° to a final shear angle 90°- α ( α: tool rake angle) and underwent a series of transient shear angles like classical shear angles and a critical shear angle. The critical shear angle is the sum of the half of the tool rake angle and the characteristic shear angle determined by material anisotropy without the friction effect. Moreover, a new model was developed. Further, a series of face turning tests of ultra-precision machining verified that the cyclic shear angle was the intrinsic mechanism of cyclic cutting forces and lamellar chip formation to induce twin-peak high-frequency multimode diamond-tool-tip vibration. Significantly, the study draws up an understanding of shear angle for the discrepancy among the classical models.
