Tool Life and Machinability * Atool that doesn't perform the desired function can be declared as failed, or reached the end of its usofu! life. * At this point of time, the tool is not necessarily unable to out the workpiece but is merely unsatisfactory (may not give the desired surface finish or dimensional tolerances) for the purpose required * The tool life is defined as the length of cutting time that the tool can be used. Tool Damage * Tool damage can be classified into two groups, weat and fracture by means ofits scale and how it progresses. * Wear is loss of material on an asperity or micro-contact, ot smaller scale, down to ‘molecular or atomic romaval mochanisme, f usually progresses continuously. * Thore are two main typos of tool wear + Fank wear + Crater wear * Fracture, on the other hand, is damage ala larger scale than wear and it occurs ‘suddenly Tool Damage * Tool damage can be classified into two groups, weat and fracture by means ofits scale and how it progresses. * Wear is loss of material on an asperity or micro-contact, ot smaller scale, down to ‘molecular or atomic romaval mochanisme, f usually progresses continuously. * Thore are two main typos of tool wear + Fank wear + Crater wear * Fracture, on the other hand, is damage ala larger scale than wear and it occurs ‘suddenly Tool damage. rani wear ve cuting ame Break-in period 1 Failure + Steady-state wear region ——tl= region Accelerating ‘Tool flank wear Rapid initial wear Cutting time Causes of tool damage Mechanical Damage Thermal Damage | Ls | auses of tool damage Teeny tue oy Mechanical Damage a a5 eS aN Fracture Fatigue xo CS Causes of tool damage Me) Factors Metre Tol Lie nachna recesses Causes of tool damage Thermal Damage hardness, HRA 100 300 ‘500 700 cutting temperature, “C Causes of tool damage ‘Thermal damage Plastic deformation Thermal diffusion Chemical reaction Removal rate Cuating temperature Fter act Teli Inhacnines recone oe £44 Rake anal Cutting Toot sees ‘Geometry Rake angles are three types, positive, zero and negative. For ductile materials, the rake inclination is a positive angle Since their shearing is low. For brittle materials, the rake inclin The advantages of increasing rake angle * Reduces the horsepower consumption. * The cutting force and tool-chip contact tamperature change in approximately the same way. ‘The disadvantages of increasing rake angle * The strength of the cutting wedge decreases when the rake angle increases. * The region of the maximum contact temperature at the tool-chip interface shifts toward the cutting edge. is a neg angle. Flank angle Cutting Toot ‘Geometry The flank angle affects the performance of the cutting tool mainly by decreasing the rubbing between the too! surface and workpiece surface. With increasing the flank angle the following advantages are obtained: * Cutting edge radius decreases which leads to decrease in the frictional and deformation components af the flank force ‘+ The strength of the region adjacent to the cutting edge decreases. * Heat dissipates through the tool decreases. Nose Radius ‘Cutting Toot ‘Geometry Nose radius is very critical part of the cutting edge. If the radius is made of sharp angle, the produced finished surtace will be rough and tool life will be short. Alarge nose radius benefits ‘ * Better surface finish. 4 * Faster feed rate ‘ + Stongertea. P * Allow faster cutting speed However, large radii have negative sequences such as tool chatter.

Theories of Chip Formation — Theory of Tear A crack propagates ahead of the tool tip causing. tearing similar to splitting wood [Reuleaux in 1900] Motion of a> Crack formed ahead of tool Theories of Chip Formation — Theory of Tear Against the traditional wisdom, the tool was observed to wear, not at the tip, but a little distance away from it. Therefore, this theory was subscribed by many researchers for a long time. Theories of Chip Formation — Theory of Tear Further studies attributed the wear away from the tip to the following: + Chip velocity w.r.t. the tool is zero at the tip. % The tip is protected by BUE. 4&4 Temp is also high a little away from the tip due to the frictional heat. Subsequent studies proved the chip formation as shear and not tear. Thus the theory of tear was rejected. Theories of Chip Formation — Theory of Compression 4 The tool compresses the material during machining. 4 This was based on the observation that the chip length was shorter than the uncut chip length. 4 Later it was established that this shortage in length corresponds to the increase chip thickness. 4 Thus this theory too was wrong Theories of Chip Formation — Theory of Shear The excessive compressive stress causes shear of the chip at an angle to the cutting direction [Mallock in 1881]. Friction between / chip and tool { \__— Formation of chip by continuous shearing Motion of workpiece Difficulties in Machining Mechanics studies 4 Several physical phenomenon such as plastic flow, fracture, friction, heat, molecular diffusion and chatter are involved. Some of them occur in extréme conditions 4 Friction — sticking; deformation — high strain and strain rate; nascent surface exposed after deformation is very active causing diffusion 4 The cutting zone is covered by chips and coolant. Typical machining is oblique, i.e., forces, torques and deflections exist in all 3 directions. Difficulties in Machining Mechanics studies 4 The typical machining operations are too short and the stock (depth and width of cut) keeps changing 4 Furthermore, velocity also may change along the cutting edge as well as over time. These changes further compound the difficulties to observe the process carefully. 4 Orthogonal cutting experiments were developed to overcome these difficulties. Characteristics of Orthogonal Cutting a 4 Awedge shaped tool is used Cutting edge is perpendicular to the direction of cut. In other words, cutting edge angle *, =90° and cutting edge inclination angle %=0° Uncut chip thickness 4, is constant along the cutting edge and w.rt. time. Cutting edge is longer than the width of the blank and it extends on its both sides. Cutting velocity v is constant along the cutting edge and w.rt. time Mechanics of Metal Cutting The type of chip produced depends upon workpiece material, tool geometry, and operating conditions. & Discontinuous chips Individual segments Fracture of the metal Brittle materials (cast irons) No plastic deformation 4 Continuous chips Machining ductile materials like steel and Al Continuous deformation without fracture Chip breakers are required Too! wear increases with sliding See Mechanics of Metal Cutting 4 Compressive deformation will cause it to be thicker and shorter than the layer of workpiece material removed 4 The work required to deform this material usually accounts for the largest portion of forces and power involved in a metal removal operation 4 The ratio of chip thickness, to the un-deformed chip thickness (effective feed rate) is called the chip thickness ratio. The lower the chip thickness ratio, the lower the force and heat, and the higher the efficiency of the operation casio) Where 1, =undelormed chip thickness sine 2, chip thickness after cutting ‘Study of Single Point and Mutt Point Cuting Too!
