Cutting force, cutting heat and tool wear are closely related to the friction characteristics of tool-chip interface in the process of metal cutting. The variation of the cutting speed and temperature have been analyzed by the distribution of stress and strain in the primary and the secondary shear zone. A new friction model has been established to analyze the contact length between cutting tool and chip and local friction coefficient at the sliding zone. Cutting experiments have been performed in the process of carbide tools cutting the titaniumTi6Al4V, the contact length of sticking zone and sliding zone and friction coefficient have been analyzed by measured cutting force. The simulation of cutting process has been carried out based on Deform software, then the simulation results have been compared with the test ones, which verifies the accuracy of the established model.

It is necessary for cutting simulation to determine the friction model at the tool-chip interface suitable for metal cutting process. Cutting force experiments in orthogonal turning titanium alloy TI6AL4V are carried out with cement carbide tool KW10. The Coulomb frictions at the tool-chip interface are calculated based on measured cutting force, and the friction model is regressed, where cutting speed and feed rate are presented.

Titanium alloy Ti6Al4V has poor machinability, which leads to high unit cutting force and cutting temperature, rapid tool failure. In this study, the effect of the cutting speed, feed rate and cooling condition on cutting force and cutting temperature is critically analysed by turning experiment. At the same time, the relationship is established among tool wear, cutting force and cutting temperature. This investigation has shown that cutting speed is the decisive factor which increasing cutting force and cutting temperature. In the process of turning, tool wear results in high amounts of heat and mechanical stress, which leads to serious tool wear. The Minimal Quantity Lubrication reduces the frictional condition at the chip-tool, decreases cutting force and cutting temperature, and delays the tool failure.

This paper presents an experimental investigation of the cutting forces response during the orthogonal cutting of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and PTFE-based composites using the Taguchi method. Cutting experiments were conducted using the L27 orthogonal array and the effects of the cutting parameters (feed rate, cutting speed and rake angle) on the cutting force were analyzed using the S/N ratio response and the analysis of variance (ANOVA). Statistical models that correlate the cutting force with process variables were developed using ANOVA and polynomial regression. The variation of the apparent friction coefficient was analyzed with respect to tool geometry and the cutting process. The results indicated that cutting and thrust forces increase with increasing feed rate, and decrease with increasing rake angles from negative to positive values and increasing cutting speed. A power law relationship between the apparent friction coefficient and the normal force exerted by the chip on the tool-rake face was identified, the former decreasing with an increasing normal force.

Over the past decade, the focus of the metal cutting industry has been on the improvement of tool life for achieving higher productivity and better finish. Researchers are attempting to reduce tool failure in several ways such as modified coating characteristics of a cutting tool, conventional coolant, cryogenic coolant, and cryogenic treated insert. In this study, a single layer coating was made on cutting carbide inserts with newly determined thickness. Coating thickness, presence of coating materials, and coated insert hardness were observed. This investigation also dealt with the effect of machining parameters on the cutting force, surface finish, and tool wear when turning Ti-6Al-4V alloy without coating and Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD)-AlCrN coated carbide cutting inserts under cryogenic conditions. The experimental results showed that AlCrN-based coated tools with cryogenic conditions developed reduced tool wear and surface roughness on the machined surface, and cutting force reductions were observed when a comparison was made with the uncoated carbide insert. The best optimal parameters of a cutting speed (Vc) of 215 m/min, feed rate (f) of 0.102 mm/rev, and depth of cut (doc) of 0.5 mm are recommended for turning titanium alloy using the multi-response TOPSIS technique.

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.

Titanium alloys are widely used in aviation and aerospace industry due to their special mechanical properties. In the process of machining titanium alloys, cutting force is an important physical quantity. In this paper, a series of experiments were carried out to investigate the cutting force in detail during high feed milling of titanium alloy Ti6Al4V with different high feed cutters. Effects of cutting parameters, such as milling speed, feed per tooth, radial cutting depth and axial cutting depth on cutting force were analyzed. The results showed that cutting force presented an obvious increasing trend with the increase of feed per tooth and axial cutting depth. However, the effects of cutting speed and radial cutting depth on cutting force were not obvious.

Milling tests were undertaken to analyze and compare the machinability of hydrogenated titanium alloy Ti6Al4V. Uncoated WC-Co tool inserts were used in the study. The feed and the depth of milling were maintained constant, and only the milling speed was varied because it is the most affecting parameter. Results showed that cutting force and tool life were greatly influenced by the contents of hydrogen. Tool life decreased at first and then increased gradually with the increase of hydrogen content, and the maximum magnitude decrease of tool life is about 0.2%H, meanwhile, the maximum tool life is about 0.5%H. However, with the increase of cutting speed, the favorable effect of hydrogen on the titanium alloy machinability would be weakened even disappear, therefore, 50-100m/min would be a suitable choice of cutting speed.

In conventional friction tests, it is difficult to realize the high pressure and high temperature conditions of the tool-work contact area in cutting. In this study, the friction properties of machining fluids were evaluated using a friction coefficient calculated from the cutting force in micro feed end milling. The finished surface roughness in conventional end milling decreased with the friction coefficient of machining fluids obtained by this method. Also, the cutting speed dependence of the friction coefficient, and its influence on the biting property of the cutting edge can be evaluated by this method.
