Cutting process is a typical non-linear deformation problem, which involves material non-linear, geometry non-linear and the state non-linear problem. Based on the elastic-plastic material deformation theory, this theme established a strain hardening model. Build the simulation model of two-dimensional orthogonal cutting process of workpiece and tool by the finite element method (FEM), and simulate the changes of cutting force and the process of chip formation in the machining process, and analyzed the cutting force, the situation of chip deformation. The method is more efficient and effective than the traditional one, and provides a new way for metal cutting theory, research of material cutting performance and cutting tool product development.

Abstract The author presents a mathematical analysis of the geometry and mechanics of the metal-cutting process, covering two common types of geometry which occur in cutting. This analysis offers a key for the study of engineering problems in the field of metal cutting in terms of such fundamental quantities as strain, rate of shear, friction between chip and tool, shear strength of the metal, work done in shearing the metal and in overcoming friction, etc. The two cases covered are, in essence, that of a straight-edged cutting tool moving relative to the work-piece in a direction perpendicular to its cutting edge, termed “orthogonal cutting,” and that of a similar cutting tool so set that the cutting edge is oblique to the direction of relative motion of tool and work, termed “oblique cutting.” Equations are developed which permit the calculation of such quantities as those just enumerated from readily observable values. The theoretical findings are particularly applicable and significant in the case of present-day high-speed machining operations with sintered-carbide tools.

This paper is the latest of a continuing series on the subject of self-excited machine tool chatter. The representation of the metal cutting process as required by the previously developed closed-loop chatter theory is extended to oblique cutting with tools of practical shape and geometry. The cutting process parameters essential to proper application of the stability theory are found by an analytical formulation leading to a classical eigenvalue problem. Techniques are developed to determine the steady-state constant of proportionality between resultant cutting force and uncut chip area, the direction of resultant cutting force, and the direction of maximum cutting stiffness for any single-point cutting operation. In the process, a general method to predict steady-state oblique cutting forces is evolved. The method depends on certain experimentally justifiable assumptions and utilizes previously compiled orthogonal cutting data.

Chatter in metal cutting is a nonlinear self-excited vibration of the limit cycle type. This investigation is concerned with the analysis of chatter from the viewpoint of the describing function. Vibrations with different frequencies and amplitudes were superimposed on the steady feed motion of the tool in orthogonal cutting in order to simulate chatter. The relationships between the oscillating cutting and thrust forces and tool vibrations are discussed from the point of view of energy transfer and describing functions. Experimentally obtained describing functions of the dynamically varying cutting process are given. The stability of a typical machine tool structure under primary chatter conditions with dynamical cutting process represented by its describing function is discussed.

A new theoretical analysis of the orthogonal cutting process is described which is based on the known behaviour of a single phase metal at high strains, strain rates and temperatures. The theoretical analysis applies to the case where a continuous chip is produced under non-lubricated conditions with the absence of a built-up edge on the tool face and indicates the important parameters in the cutting process. The theory is examined experimentally and its validity established. Finally, from a knowledge of the effects of strain rate and temperature on the yield stress of a single phase metal, the theory is used to predict the effects of changes in cutting speed and tool rake angle on the tool forces and geometry of the cutting process. These predictions are compared qualitatively with the results of cutting tests.

Material constitutive equation plays an important role in Finite Element Analysis (FEA) of metal cutting process. This paper proposes a method to obtain parameters for Power Law model of a Japanese type of alloy steel (SCM440H) for 3-D FEA of face milling process, involving pressure bar experiments and orthogonal metal cutting experiments. Since pressure bar test cannot reach the high strain rate occurred in cutting process, orthogonal cutting experiment was combined to obtain parameters for material model. By this method, the ideal parameters for FEA of the face milling process were finally determined. Face milling experiments were performed to verify the accuracy of the model built.

The purpose of this research was to develop models for the prediction of responses from orthogonal metal cutting process that are responsible for the machinability ratings of this technological system. Mild steel work-piece material that is representative sample for various industrial applications was machined. The various industrial applications of this representative sample range from mechanical shafts to fasteners, screws and hydraulic jack. These machine elements require high degree of surface finish. A fifteen-run based Box-Behnken response surface design was created using widely established machining parameters, namely cutting speed, feed rate and depth of cut. The optimum predicted responses from the orthogonal cutting process for the optimal process parameters are 0.1742 micron, 0.4933 micron, 0.1845 micron, 0.3673 micron, 794.6839 seconds and 19.642 seconds for the Ra, Rz, Rq, Rt, TL and M/C time respectively. The associated desirabilities for these optimum responses are 1.000000, 1.000000, 1.000000, 1.000000, 0.524122, and 0.361858 respectively.   http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/njt.v36i1.13

The development of an accurate model for the shear and normal stresses on the rake face is very important for modeling of the metal cutting mechanics. It is known that the stresses vary over the contact surfaces of the tool and change substantially with their configurations. On the other hand, the recent attempts were generally addressed to orthogonal cutting process and tools with flat rake faces. At present, grooved tools with complex rake faces are commonly applied in the industry. In this study a plane strain finite element (FEM) program AdvantEdge was used to simulate the cutting process with some disposable grooved cutting tools. Both the reduced von Mises stresses and their components in x and y directions were considered and visualized for appropriate chip formation stages. In particular, the distribution of the contact stresses was revealed when chip breakage occurs. The simulated results were correlated with the geometry of the chip breaker and process parameters.

The thermal conditions like temperature distribution and heat fluxes during metal cutting have a major influence on the machinability, the tool life time, and the metallurgical structure of the work piece material. Though numerous analytical and experimental efforts have been developed in order to understand the thermal conditions in metal cutting, many questions still prevail. So, the exact form, distribution, and intensity of heat sources in the primary and secondary shear zone, which may describe the observed temperature distributions, are not explored to a satisfactory extend. On the other hand, the influence of the material properties like friction coefficient, heat conductivity, and shear strength is not yet fully understood. Another essential question is the heat flux partition among chip, work piece, and tool depending on process parameters and material. The particular novelty of the current investigation is a new methodological approach using modern thermal measurement system and postprocessing methods in order not only to measure the entire temperature field in the orthogonal cutting zone but also to calculate the affiliated heat flow distribution in the cutting process. Thus, the cutting process is treated as energy conversation process of the governing mechanical power into sensible heat. This point of view offers compatibility across process parameters and materials, thus new possibilities for process design.

In this paper, a finite element model of a two-dimensional orthogonal metal cutting process is used to simulate the chip formation, cutting forces, stress, strain and temperature distributions. Two deformable parts are involved in this model: the workpiece and the cutting tool. To make the results of the simulation agree the orthogonal cutting test better, the separation surface between the chip and the machined surface is not predefined in this simulation. The chip-separation criterion is based on the Johnson and Cook law. This work will help as a reference to tackle more complex cutting processes such as oblique and discontinuous cutting.
