6. 20.2 Fundamentals Responsibilities of Engineers
Design (with Material) engineer:
determine geometry and materials of products to meet functional requirements
Manufacturing engineer based on material decision:
select machine tool
select cutting-tool materials
select workholder parameters,
select cutting parameters

7. 20.2 Fundamentals Cutting Parameters
Speed (V): the primary cutting motion, which relates the velocity of the cutting tool relative to the workpiece.
For turning: V = p(D1 Ns) / 12
where, V – feet per min, Ns – revolution per min (rpm), D1 diameter of surface of workpiece, in.
Feed (fr): amount of material removed per revolution or per pass of the tool over the workpiece. In turning, feed is in inches per revolution, and the tool feeds parallel to the rotational axis of the workpiece.
Depth of Cut (DOC): in turning, it is the distance that the tool is plunged into the surface.
DOC = 0.5(D1 – D2) = d

8. FIGURE 20-3 Turning a
cylindrical workpiece on a lathe requires you to select the cutting speed, feed, and depth of cut.

9. 20.2 Fundamentals Cutting Tool is a most critical component
used to cut the work piece
selected before actual values for speed and feeds are determined.
Figure 20-4 gives starting values of cutting speed, feed for a given depth of cut, a given work material, and a given process (turning).
Speed decreases as DOC or feed increase
Cutting speed increases with carbide and coated- carbide tool material.

10. FIGURE 20-4 Examples of a table for selection of speed and feed for turning. (Source: Metcut’s Machinability Data Handbook.)

11. 20.2 Fundamentals
To process different metals, the input parameters to the machine tools must be determined.
For the lathe, the input parameters are DOC, feed, and the rpm value of the spindle.
Ns = 12V / (p D1) = ~ 3.8 V/ D1
Most tables are arranged according to the process being used, the material being machined, the hardness, and the cutting-tool material.
The table in Figure 20-4 is used only for solving turning problems in the book.

12. 20.2 Fundamentals
DOC is determined by the amount of metal removed per pass.
Roughing cuts are heavier than finishing cuts in terms of DOC and feed and are run at a lower surface speed.
Once cutting speed V has been selected, the next step is to determine the spindle rpm, Ns.
Use V, fr and DOC to estimate the metal removal rate for the process, or MRR.
MRR = ~ 12V fr d
where d is DOC (depth of cutt).
MRR value is ranged from 0.1 to 600 in3/min.

13. 20.2 Fundamentals
MRR can be used to estimate horsepower needed to perform cut.
Another form of MRR is the ratio between the volume of metal removed and the time needed to remove it.
MRR = (volume of cut)/Tm
Where Tm – cutting time in min. For turning,
Tm = (L + allowance)/ fr Ns
where L – length of the cut. An allowance is usually added to L to allow the tool to enter and exit the cut.
MRR and Tm are commonly referred to as shop equations and are fundamental as the processes.

14. 20.2 Fundamentals One of the most common is turning:
workpiece is rotated and cutting tool removes material as it moves to the left after setting a depth of cut.
A chip is produced which moves up the face of the tool.

15. FIGURE 20-5 Relationship of
speed, feed, and depth of cut in
turning, boring, facing, and
cutoff operations typically done
on a lathe.

16. 20.2 Fundamentals Milling: A multiple-tooth process.
Two feeds: the amount of metal an individual tooth removes, called the feed per tooth ft, and the rate at which the table translates pass the rotating tool, called the table feed rate fm in inch per min.
fm = ft n Ns
where n – the number of teeth in a cutter, Ns – the rpm value of the cutter.
Standard tables of speeds and feeds for milling provide values for the recommended cutting speeds and feeds and feeds per tooth, fr.

25. 20.3 Energy and Power in Machining
Power requirements are important for proper machine tool selection.
Cutting force data is used to:
properly design machine tools to maintain desired tolerances.
determine if the workpiece can withstand cutting forces without distortion.

26. Cutting Forces and Power
Primary cutting force Fc: acts in the direction of the cutting velocity vector. Generally the largest force and accounts for 99% of the power required by the process.
Feed Force Ff :acts in the direction of tool feed. The force is usually about 50% of Fc but accounts for only a small percentage of the power required because feed rates are small compared to cutting rate.
Radial or Thrust Force Fr :acts perpendicular to the machined surface. in the direction of tool feed. The force is typically about 50% of Ff and contributes very little to the power required because velocity in the radial direction is negligible.

27. FIGURE Oblique
machining has three measurable
components of forces acting on
the tool. The forces vary with
speed, depth of cut, and feed.

28. FIGURE Oblique

29. Cutting Forces and Power
Power = Force x Velocity
P = Fc . V (ft-lb/min)
Horsepower at spindle of machine is:
hp = (FcV) / 33,000
Unit, or specific, horsepower HPs:
HPs = hp / (MRR) (hp/in.3/min)
In turning, MRR =~ 12VFrd, then
HPs = Fc / 396,000Frd
This is approximate power needed at the spindle to remove a cubic inch of metal per minute.

31. Cutting Forces and Power
Specific Power
Used to estimate motor horsepower required to perform a machining operation for a given material.
Motor horsepower HPm
HPm = [HPs . MRR . (CF)]/E
Where E – about 0.8, efficiency of machine to overcome friction and inertia in machine and drive moving parts; MRR – maximum value is usually used; CF – about 1.25, correction factor, used to account for variation in cutting speed, feed, and rake angle.

32. Cutting Forces and Power
Primary cutting force Fc:
Fc =~ [HPs . MRR . 33,000]/V
Used in analysis of deflection and vibration problems in machining and in design of workholding devices.
In general, increasing the speed, feed, depth of cut, will increase power required.
In general, increasing the speed doesn’t increase the cutting force Fc. Speed has strong effect on tool life.

33. Cutting Forces and Power
Considering MRR =~ 12Vfrd, then
dmax =~ (HPm . E)/[12 . HPs V Fr (CF)]
Total specific energy (cutting stiffness) U:
U = (FcV)/(V fr d) = Fc/(fr . d) =Ks (turning)

34. 20.6 Mechanics of Machining (statics)
Assume that the result force R acting on the back of the chip is equal and opposite to the resultant force R’ acting on the shear plane.
R is composed of friction force F and normal force N acting on tool-chip interface contact area.
R’ is composed of a shear force Fs and normal force Fn acting on the shear plane area As.
R is also composed of cutting force Fc and tangential (normal) force Ft acting on tool-chip interface contact area. Ft = R sin (b - a)

35. FIGURE 20-20 Free-body diagram of orthogonal chip
formation process, showing equilibrium condition
between resultant forces R and R.

36. 20.6 Mechanics of Machining (statics)
Friction force F and normal force are:
F = Fc sina + Ft cosa ,
N = Fc cosa + Ft sina, and
b = tan-1 m = tan-1 (F/N),
Where m - force F and friction coefficient, and b – the angle between normal force N and resultant R. If a = 0, then F = Ft , and N = Fc . in this case, the friction force and its normal can be directly measured by dynamometer.
R = SQRT (Fc2 + Ft2 ),
Fs = Fc cosf - Ft sinf , and
Fn = Fc sinf + Ft cosf,
Where Fs is used to compute the shear stress on the shear plane

37. 20.6 Mechanics of Machining (statics)
Shear stress:
ts = Fs/As,
Where As - area of the shear plane,
As = (t w)/sinf
Where t – uncut ship thickness and w – width of workpiece.
ts = (Fcsinf cosf - Ft sin2f )/(tw) psi
for a given metal, shear stress is not sensitive to variations in cutting parameters, tool meterial, or cutting environment.
Fig shows some typical values for flow stress for a variety of metals, plotted against hardness.

38. 20.7 Shear Strain g & Shear Front Angle f
Use Merchant’s chip formation model, a new “stack-of-cards” model as shown in fig is developed. From the model, strain is:
g = cosa/[sin(f + y) cos(f + y -a)]
where f - the angle of the onset of the shear plane, and y - the shear front angle.
The special shear energy (shear energy/volume) equals shear stress x shear strain:
Us = t .g

39. 20.7 Shear Strain g & Shear Front Angle f
Use minimum energy principle, where will y take on value (shear direction) to reduce shear energy to a minimum:
d(Us)/dy = 0,
Solving the equation above,
y = y + a/2 , and
g = 2cosa/(1 + sina),
It shows the shear strain is dependent only on the rake angle a.

40. 20.8 Mechanics of Machining (Dynamics)
Machining is a dynamic process of large strain and high strain rate.
The process is a closed loop interactive processes as shown on fig

41. FIGURE Machining
dynamics is a closed-loop
interactive process that creates
a force-displacement response.

42. 20.8 Mechanics of Machining (Dynamics)
Free vibration is the response to any initial condition or sudden change. The amplitude of the vibration decreases with time and occurs at the natural frequency of the system.
Forced vibration is the response to a periodic (repeating with time) input. The response and input occur at the same frequency. The amplitude of the vibration remains constant for set input condition and is linearly related to speed

43. 20.8 Mechanics of Machining (Dynamics)
Self-excited vibration is the periodic response to the system to a constant input. The vibration may grow in amplitude and occurs near natural frequency of the system regardless of the input. Chatter due to the regeneration of waviness in the machining surface is the most common metal cutting example.

44. 20.8 Mechanics of Machining (Dynamics)
Factors affecting on the stability of machining
Cutting stiffness of workpiece material (machinability), Ks
Cutting –process parameters (speed, feed, DOC, total width of chip)
Cutter geometry (rake asd clearance angles, insert size and shape)
Dynamic characteristics of the machining process (tooling, machining tool, fixture, and workpiece)

45. 20.8 Mechanics of Machining (Dynamics)
Chip formation and regenerative Chatter
In machining, chip is formed due to shearing of workpiece material over chip area (A = t x w), which results in a cutting force.
Magnitude of the resulting cutting force is predominantly determined by the material cutting stiffness Ks and the chip area such that F c = Ks t w.
The direction of the cutting force Fc in influenced mainly by the geometries of rack and clearance angles and edge prep.

46. FIGURE When the
overlapping cuts get out of
phase with each other, a variable
chip thickness is produced,
resulting in a change in Fc on the
tool or workpiece.

47. 20.8 Mechanics of Machining (Dynamics)
Factors Influencing Chatter:
Cutting stiffness Ks
Speed
FEED
DOC: The primary cause and control of chatter.
Total width of chip
Back rack angle
Clearance angle
Size (nose radius), shape (diamond, triangular, square, round) and lead angle of insert

48. Effects of Temperature
Energy dissipated in cutting is converted to heat, elevating temperature of chip, workpiece, and tool.
As speed increases, a greater percentage of the heat ends up in the chip.
Three sources of heat:
Shear front.
Tool-chip interface contact region.
Flank of the tool.

heat generated in machining to
the chip, tool, and workpiece.

53. FIGURE The typical relationship of temperature at the tool–chip interface to cutting speed shows a rapid increase. Correspondingly, the tool wears at the interface rapidly with increased temperature, often created by increased speed.
