The dynamic response of the shear plane and the variations of the dynamic cutting coefficients are experimentally investigated at various values of feed, cutting speed, rake angle, clearance angle, frequency, and amplitude of chip thickness modulation. Wave generating and wave removing cutting tests, in which high-speed photography is used to investigate the geometry of chip formation, are carried out. The theoretical model of dynamic cutting developed in [1] is assessed with reference to these experimental results. A comparison between this model and previous models in relation to the experimental results is also presented.

In this study, to simulate the grinding process for rolled homogeneous armor steel (RHA) 4043, a single-grain cutting process is modeled using a three-dimensional (3-D) numerical model, which is developed using a coupled finite element (FE) - smoothed-particle hydrodynamics (SPH) approach. The proposed numerical model is then employed to investigate the influences of grain negative rake angle (-22°, -31°, and-45°) as well as high and super-high cutting speed ranged from 100 m/s to 260 m/s in the cutting processes. The numerical results show the cutting forces are much lower and the maximum chip thickness is much larger when using a smaller grain negative rake angle.

High speed machining has received increasingly broad applications in various industries, especially in the aircraft and aerospace industry, where a large number of structural frames are machined. Based on Manyindo and Oxley’s descriptive model of serrated chip formation, this paper proposes a new mathematical model for high speed machining of 7075-T6 aluminum alloy. The new model integrates Johnson-Cook’s material model with Oxley’s machining theory and is validated by using the published experimental data. A good agreement between the predicted and experimental degree of chip segmentation is reached. The effects of cutting conditions and tool geometry on the serrated chip geometry, the cutting forces, and the shear-plane angles are quantitatively investigated. The analysis shows that a large undeformed chip thickness, a negative tool rake angle, and a high cutting speed strengthen the degree of chip segmentation in high speed machining.

In this paper, the specific shear energy in high-speed machining 7050-T7451 from 100m/min to 3000m/min is measured and compared with the theoretical value evaluated by the method proposed by Pawade et al. (2009). The influences of cutting speed, rake angle of cutting tool, and uncut chip thickness are also investigated and discussed. Results show that the specific shear energy decreases with the increase of cutting speed, rake angle, and uncut chip thickness. The higher thermal softening makes the specific shear energy lower.

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.

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.

The current work presents the development of cost model for tooling during high speed hard turning of AISI 4340 hardened steel using regression analysis. A set of experimental data using ceramic cutting tools, composed approximately of Al2O3 (70%) and TiC (30%) on AISI 4340 heat treated to a hardness of 60 HRC was obtained in the following design boundary: cutting speeds (175-325 m/min), feed rate (0.075-0.125 m/rev), negative rake angle (0 to -12) and depth of cut of (0.1-0.15) mm. The output data is used to develop a new model in predicting the tooling cost using in terms of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and rake angle. Box Behnken Design was used in developing the model. Predictive regression model was found to be capable of good predictions the tooling cost within the boundary design.

In this paper, a novel model combining the microstructure prediction model and a modified constitutive model of the Johnson-Cook (JC) model was developed and embedded into FEM software via the user subroutine. The chip formation and microstructure evolution in high speed cutting of Ti-6Al-4V alloy were simulated. The results indicated that dynamic recrystallization mainly happened in adiabatic shear bands (ASBs), where the grain size had a big decline. Then FEM simulations were carried out to investigate the effect of cutting velocity, uncut chip thickness, and the rake angle on the ASBs width of the serrated chips. It can be concluded that the width of ASB increases with the increasing of cutting depth and cutting velocity, and decreases with the increasing of rake angle of the tool.

In recent years, most of nickel-based materials have been used in aircraft engines. Nickel-based materials applied in the aerospace industry are used in a wide range of applications because of their strength and rigidity at high temperature. However, the high temperatures and high strength caused by the nickel-based materials during cutting also reduce the tool lifetime. This research aims to investigate the tool wear and the surface roughness of Waspaloy during cutting with various cutting speeds, feed per tooth, cutting depth, and other cutting parameters. Then, it derives the formula for the tool lifetime based on the experimental results and explores the impacts of these cutting parameters on the cutting of Waspaloy. Since the impacts of cutting speed on the cutting of Waspaloy are most significant in accordance with the experimental results, the high-speed cutting is not recommended. In addition, the actual surface roughness of Waspaloy is worse than the theoretical surface roughness in case of more tool wear. Finally, a set of mathematical models can be established based on these results, in order to predict the surface roughness of Waspaloy cut with a worn tool. The errors between the predictive values and the actual values are 5.122%∼8.646%. If the surface roughness is within the tolerance, the model can be used to predict the residual tool lifetime before the tool is damaged completely. The errors between the predictive values and the actual values are 8.014%∼20.479%.

Obtaining accurate baseline force data is often the critical step in applying machining simulation codes. The accuracy of the baseline cutting data determines the accuracy of simulated results. Moreover, the testing effort required to generate suitable data for new materials determines whether simulation provides a cost or time advantage over trial-and-error testing. The efficiency with which baseline data can be collected is limited by the fact that simulation programs do not use standard force or pressure equations, so that multiple sets of tests must be performed to simulate different machining processes for the same tool-workpiece material combination. Furthermore, many force and pressure equations do not include rake angle effects, so that separate tests are also required for different cutter geometries. This paper describes a unified method for simulating cutting forces in different machining processes from a common set of baseline data. In this method, empirical equations for cutting pressures or forces as a function of the cutting speed, uncut chip thickness, and tool normal rake angle are fit to baseline data from end turning, bar turning, or fly milling tests. Forces in specific processes are then calculated from the empirical equations using geometric transformations. This approach is shown to accurately predict forces in end turning, bar turning, or fly milling tests on five common tool-work material combinations. As an example application, bar turning force data is used to simulate the torque and thrust force in a combined drilling and reaming process. Extrapolation errors and corrections for workpiece hardness variations are also discussed.

The cutting vibration is one of the main factors to affect precision machining. In this paper, the influence of tool rake angle on cutting vibration is studied at different cutting speed in turning operation, and corresponding theoretical analysis is made. The experiment results show that: the amplitude of machining vibration gradually decreases with tool rake angle increasing; while rake angle o g <0°, the biggest amplitude occurs at V=50~70m/min; While o g ≥0°, it is at V=160~180m/min. Moreover, theory and experiment foundation is presented on avoiding the biggest amplitude range so as to guarantee quality of precision machining at high speed.
