Material Removal: Important Equation Summary

1) Geometry
t0 sin f
r=
= r cos a
t c cos(f - a ) tan f =
1 - r sin a
g = cotf + tan(f -a )
2) Forces b = tan -1 µ

i) Tool-chip interface:
F = R sin b
N = R cos b
F
µ = = tan b
N

ii) Workpiece plane iii) Shear plane

Ft = R sin( b - a ) Fs = R cos(f + b - a )
Fc = R cos( b - a ) FN = R sin(f + b - a )
iv) R 2 = F 2 + N 2 = Ft 2 + Fc 2 = Fs 2 + FN 2
v) k = shear yield strength = Y/2
F wt0
ts = k = s As =
As sin(φ )
3) Speeds
V: tool speed; Vc=chip speed

V Vs V Vc t

Ut from Table 8.3
Ptotal = Fc.V
Ptotal = Pfriction + Pshear
Pfriction = FVc Pshear = FsVs
