dependant on the wedge anglewords,
smaller the angle of wedge, the greater will be the gain in force. In other 8. The
the
wedge angle 3 determines the resisting force of the cutting edge.
The cutting edge must be oriented at certain required angles with the work
surface depending on the nature ofoperation to be performed. Fig. 2.3 shows that the
wedge must be set at right angles to the work surface so that the driving force P is in
