GENERALIZED MODELING OF METAL CUTTING MECHANICS by MUSTAFA KAYMAKCI M.Sc. Koc University, Turkey, 2007 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF APPLIED SCIENCE in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Mechanical Engineering) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) August 2009 Β© Mustafa Kaymakci, 2009 ii Abstract Metal cutting is the most commonly used manufacturing process for producing parts with final dimensions. The aim of engineering science is to model the physics of the process which allows the simulation of part machining operations ahead of costly trials. There is a need to develop generalized models of cutting process which is applicable to various tool geometries and cutting processes in order to simulate machining of industri- al parts in virtual environment. This thesis presents a generalized mathematical model which can be used to predict turning, drilling, boring and milling processes. The tool geometry is adopted from ISO 13399 standards. The rake face of the tool is mathematically modeled from ISO13399 model by considering tool geometry, en- gagement with the workpiece, feed and speed directions of cutting motion. Various geometric features of the tool, such as chamfer, nose radius, and cutting edge angles, are considered in developing coordinate transformation models between the machine motion and tool coordinate systems. The cutting forces on the rake face are defined in the direction of chip flow and per- pendicular to the rake face. The cutting force coefficients in the two directions are either identified mechanistically by conducting experiments specific to the tool geometry, or using orthogonal to oblique transformation of shear angle, average friction angle and shear stress. The friction and normal forces on the rake face are transformed to both stationary and rotating tool coordinate systems defined on the machine tool. ii Table of Contents Abstract .............................................................................................................................. ii Table of Contents ............................................................................................................... ii List of Tables ..................................................................................................................... v List of Figures ................................................................................................................... vi Acknowledgements ......................................................................................................... xiii Nomenclature ..................................................................................................................... x 1.

Introduction In terms of operations that take place in industry, metal cutting is the most common manufacturing method in producing final shapes of mechanical parts with tight toler- ances and complex shapes. The main metal cutting processes can be listed as turning, milling, boring, and drilling. Metal cutting operations can be conducted manually or automatically by the help of Computer Numerical Control (CNC) tools. The motion of the machine tool on a CNC is controlled by the NC commands which are generated on computer β aided design/ computer β aided manufacturing (CAD/CAM) systems. The productivity and the output quality depends on the preparation of NC programs, process planner, cutting conditions, workpiece material, cutter geometry, cutter material, machine tool rigidity and the performance of the CNC system. Economical and efficient manufacturing in metal cutting operations are vital in order to produce parts with desired accuracy and low cost. Understanding the mechanics of the metal cutting process assists in avoiding damages to the tool, machine and workpiece while improving productivity and accuracy. Cutting tools with replaceable inserts are widely used in machining industry. Insert geometries can vary depending on the cutting operation and workpiece material. While all turning tools are inserts, milling cutters use either inserts distributed on the cutter body or they are ground from solid carbides. Due to the geometric complexities of inserts with poorly defined rake face geometry, it is difficult to accurately model me- chanics of the cutting operation. As a result, an accurate cutting force model which can include various has been a challenge. Current literature focuses to determine separate mechanics models for each cutting process and even for each different cutter. In other words, researchers aimed to develop dedicated cutting models for turning, boring, drilling, and milling operations having different tool geometries. However, by understanding the fundamentals of metal cutting mechanics, it must be possible to develop a unified-generalized process model that can Chapter 1. Introduction 2 predict the cutting forces for a wide spectrum of machining operations practiced in industry. This thesis focuses on developing a generalized cutting mechanics model that can be applicable to most cutting processes. Cutting forces are first modeled on the rake face of the tool as friction and normal loads. The friction and normal forces are transformed to tool coordinate system. An improved and enhanced inserted cutter model has been developed based on the previous studies of Engin and Altintas [1]. Analytical model for all insert geometries defined in ISO 13399 standards have been derived. The forces are further transformed from the tool to cutting operation coordinate system to predict cutting forces, torque and power for various machining operations and cutting condi- tions. The thesis is organized as follows; Chapter 2 presents necessary background and literature review on metal cutting re- search. Cutting mechanics, previous models for chip thickness, chip flow models, as well as prediction of cutting forces for different operations are discussed. Previous geometric models of inserted cutters are summarized and generalization of metal cutting mechanics is reviewed. The geometric parameters of the cutting tools are defined according to ISO 13399 standards in Chapter 3. The reference planes and points required to describe the cutting angles are presented. Angular and dimensional quantities are considered to model an extensive variety of cutting tool geometries. The coordinate transformations needed to describe the cutting forces on rake face of the tool are presented. The geometric modeling of inserted cutters is presented in Chapter 4. Using the geometric identities described in Chapter 3, geometric control points are calculated analytically at the local coordinate system of the insert, which is placed on the cutter body using the orientation angles. Physical angles of the cutter required for cutting mechanics models are calculated with sample illustrations. The generalized modeling of cutting forces using friction and normal forces on the rake face of the cutter is presented in Chapter 5. The proposed mechanics model is Chapter 1. Introduction 3 compared with the current force models found in the literature. In addition to cutting forces, material model and calibration methods are also discussed and the transforma- tions between the models are summarized. Using the geometric modeling of inserted tools which is described in Chapter 4, experimental validations of the model are pre- sented. Simulations and measurements are presented for turning and milling operations for various types of inserted cutters and cutting conditions. The thesis is concluded in Chapter 6 with the summary of contributions and future research. Chapter 2. Literature Survey 4 2. Literature Survey 2.1 Overview A literature review of past research on modeling of cutting tool geometry and me- chanics are presented. The distribution of chip along the cutting edge is discussed, and the corresponding approaches in predicting the cutting forces are presented. 2.2 Mechanics of Metal Cutting Mechanics of metal cutting has been a subject of research for the last 60 years [2][3] [4] [5]. The process of mechanics are affected by parameters such as feed rate, depth of cut, cutting speed, cutting edge angle, rake angle, helix angle, and workpiece material [6]. Researchers have been trying to establish a relationship between these parameters and process mechanics. The early work done by Merchant [7][8] has been a foundation used in the modeling of cutting forces [9][10]. Merchantβs model is based on the concept of a steady process in which a chip is produced by shearing a strip of uncut metal continuously and uniformly, and the deformation of the chip takes place along a shear plane. Figure 2-1: Orthogonal Cutting Process [5]. Chapter 2. Literature Survey 5 As shown in Figure 2-1, the uncut material approaches to the tool, sheared, and leaves parallel to the rake face of the tool with a new chip thickness. The width of the chip is assumed to be constant throughout the process. When the face of the tool is perpendicular to the plane of cutting (Figure 2-1), it is called orthogonal cutting, other- wise the process is considered to be oblique. Cutting forces occur in three directions in oblique cutting as shown in Figure 2-2 [11]. The component of the force acting on the rake face of the tool, normal to the cutting edge, is the tangential cutting force. The force component, acting in the radial direction, tending the push the tool away from the workpiece, is called the radial force. The third component is acting on the tool in the horizontal direction, parallel to the direction of feed, is referred as the feed force [12][13][5]. Figure 2-2: Illustration of Cutting Force Components [12][5]. Researchers [14] attempted to improve the models developed by Merchant. They in- cluded sophisticated mathematical formulations of frictional behavior on the tool rake face, high strain rate, work hardening of the workpiece material, and high temperature. Endres et al. [15] developed a cutting force model incorporating parameters of tool Chapter 2. Literature Survey 6 geometry. Lee and Shaffer [16] developed a more sophisticated model by introducing plasticity of the workpiece material into the solution. 2.3 Cutting Force Models Cutting force models using the tool geometry have been developed starting with simple orthogonal geometries and extended to the general turning and to milling processes. Following sections present a background on various cutting force models. 2.3.1 Orthogonal Cutting Orthogonal cutting provides the simplest geometry to study metal cutting mechan- ics, and models of the process have been advanced in the form of shear angle solutions. The best known approach is presented by Merchant [7] who defined the rake face contact as elastic with a constant coefficient of friction. The shear angle solution of this model is derived from minimum energy principle as: πππππ‘π‘ππππ βπππππ‘π‘ = ππ4 + πΎπΎππ2 β π½π½ππ2 (2.1) where πΎπΎππ and π½π½ππ are the normal rake angle and friction angle respectively. Lee and Shaffer [16] proposed the following shear angle relationship using a slip-line field approach: πππΏπΏπ‘π‘π‘π‘ = ππ4 + πΎπΎππ β π½π½ππ (2.2) The validity of the shear angle relationships have been evaluated [17], and improved models have been presented [18][19][20]. Assuming there is only sliding friction on the rake face and there is a thin primary shear deformation area, the above models lead to the following expressions for the magnitudes of the tangential force and feed force: πΉπΉπ‘π‘ = β ππ οΏ½πππ π cos(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)sinππππ cos(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)οΏ½ πΉπΉππ = β ππ οΏ½πππ π sin(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)sinππππ cos(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)οΏ½ (2.3) Chapter 2. Literature Survey 7 where β is the uncut chip thickness, ππ is the width of cut and πππ π is the shear yield stress of the workpiece material. Since it is difficult to predict the shear and the friction angles, a simplified mechanistic model of cutting forces has been developed. The normal approach in practice is to combine the effects of shear angle, rake angle, and friction angle under a parameter called as the specific cutting pressure: πΉπΉπ‘π‘ = βπππΎπΎπ‘π‘ πΉπΉππ = βπππΎπΎππ (2.4) where πΎπΎππ is the specific cutting pressure of direction ππ. Another approach to calcu- late the forces is using an exponential force model in which specific cutting force pressures have been expressed as an exponential function of the chip thickness. Sabber- wal and Koenigsberger [21][22] used this approach and obtained specific cutting coefficients experimentally. Their cutting force equation has been stated by: πΉπΉπ‘π‘ = πΎπΎπ‘π‘ππβππ1 πΉπΉππ = πΎπΎππππβππ2 (2.5) where πΎπΎπ‘π‘ ,πΎπΎππ ,ππ1, and ππ2 are experimentally calibrated empirical constants. It is possible to account for the edge forces by linearizing the cutting force expression. Linearization leads to a formulation of total cutting forces that are proportional to the undeformed chip cross sectional area and ploughing forces that are proportional to the length of the active cutting edge: πΉπΉπ‘π‘ = πΎπΎπ‘π‘ππππβ + πΎπΎπ‘π‘π‘π‘ππ πΉπΉππ = πΎπΎππππππβ + πΎπΎπππ‘π‘ππ (2.6) In this thesis, a linear cutting force model with edge coefficients is used. The advan- tage of linear cutting coefficient model is that it is more compatible with other process models, i.e. stability calculations require constant cutting coefficient in order to solve the differential equations. With the nonlinear coefficient model, the differential equations in stability calculation will be nonlinear. Chapter 2. Literature Survey 8 2.3.2 Forces in Turning Most turning tools have oblique geometry with a nose radius (ππππ), a cutting edge an- gle (π π ππ ), and an inclination (oblique) angle (πππ π ). It is possible to extend the orthogonal cutting model by introducing the concept of equivalent chip thickness [23]. The equiva- lent chip thickness combines the effects of nose radius and cutting edge angle on the cutting forces. At constant velocity, it has been found that the cutting forces can be expressed as a function of equivalent chip thickness [23][24]. In this model, the direction of the in-plane feed force is described by the chip flow angle ππ, using the following equations (Figure 2-3): πΉπΉπ¦π¦ = πΉπΉππ sin ππ πΉπΉπ§π§ = πΉπΉππ cos ππ (2.7) Figure 2-3: Turning Operation Using a Tool with a Nose Radius and Colwellβs Approach. The chip flow angle (ππ) has been modeled mostly empirically without considering the mechanics of the process. Nevertheless, these models are fairly successful in predict- ing chip flow angle, provided they are used at certain cutting conditions. Colwell [25] suggested that, without obliquity, the feed force is perpendicular to the line connecting the two end points of the active cutting edge. Okushima and Minato [26] proposed that the average chip flow (?Μ ?π) is the summation of elemental flow angles over the entire length of cutting edge: Chapter 2. Literature Survey 9 ?Μ ?π = β«ππ(π π )πππ π β«πππ π (2.8) where ππ(π π ) is the direction of each unitβs elemental surface normal and π π is the arc length along the cutting edge. For the case of a straight oblique cutting edge, Stabler [27] stated that the chip flow angle is equal to the inclination angle. Young et al. [28] pub- lished a combined approach which assumed Stablerβs chip flow rule was valid for infinitesimal chip widths and summed the directions of the elemental friction forces in order to obtain the direction of chip flow. Dividing the tool β chip interface into small elements and calculating the force contribution of each element in ππ and ππ directions, they estimated the direction of chip flow as (Figure 2-4): ?Μ ?π = tanβ1 οΏ½β« sin ππ(π π )πππ΄π΄ β« cos ππ(π π )πππ΄π΄οΏ½ (2.9) Figure 2-4: Different Approaches for Predicting Chip Flow Direction: (a) Colwell, (b) Okushima and Minato, (c) Young et al. Wang [29] improved Young et al.βs method [28] by incorporating tool inclination angle and normal rake angle. In Wangβs model, cutting region is also divided into many local cutting elements and he assumed that the local chip flow for each element is collinear with that elementβs friction force, i.e. , Stablerβs chip flow rule is applied for each element. The above methods for obtaining the direction of chip flow and feed force are empirical methods and cannot be applicable to all cutting operations. Usui et al. [30][31] have proposed and upper bound model for oblique cutting with a non-straight cutting edge. Chapter 2. Literature Survey 10 The first step in this thesis is to develop a simplified but complete cutting force model for oblique non-straight cutting edges. The model uses the mechanics on the rake face of the tool to account for friction and shear forces. This model is described in Chapter 5. 2.3.3 Forces in Milling The milling process differs from the turning process, because the generated chips, hence the forces are discontinuous, and periodic. Cutting forces occurred during milling is one of the most important parameters in order to improve the productivity and part quality, because deflection, tool breakage, surface quality, and form errors are mainly influenced by cutting forces. Determination of chip formation is the first step in mechanistic modeling of cutting forces. Early study of Martelotti [32][33] showed that the path of the tool is trochoidal, rather than circular because of the combined rotation and translation of the tool towards the workpiece. Martelotti also claimed that when the feed per tooth is much smaller than the tool radius, circular tool path assumption is valid and the error is negligible: β(ππ) = ππ sinππ (2.10) where β is the instantaneous chip thickness, ππ is the feed rate, and ππ is the immer- sion angle of a tooth. Milling force models in the literature can be classified into two categories. In mechanistic models, the focus is to derive a relationship between cutting forces and process parameters such as tool geometry, workpiece material, and cutting conditions. Early work by Koeingsberger and Sabberwal [22] used experimentally determined cutting coefficients and related chip load to calculate cutting forces: πΉπΉ = πΎπΎπ π ππβ πΎπΎπ π = πΆπΆβπ₯π₯ (2.11) where πΎπΎπ π is the cutting pressure, ππ is the radial depth of cut, β is the instantaneous chip thickness, πΆπΆ and π₯π₯ are empirical constants. This model is considered as the first complete model in this category. However, calibration method used in this study is far from the physics of the process, because an empirical curve fitting technique was used Chapter 2. Literature Survey 11 instead of employing cutting laws. Tlusty and McNeil [34], Kline et al. [35], Sutherland and DeVor [36], and Altintas and Spence [37] have improved and adopted the empirical method in their models. Armarego and Deshpande [38] proposed linear cutting force model by introducing edge force components: πΉπΉπ‘π‘ = πΎπΎπ‘π‘ππππβ + πΎπΎπ‘π‘π‘π‘ππ πΉπΉππ = πΎπΎππππππβ + πΎπΎπππ‘π‘ππ πΉπΉππ = πΎπΎππππππβ + πΎπΎπππ‘π‘ππ (2.12) In Eq. (2.12), indices π‘π‘ and ππ represent the edge and cutting force components, re- spectively. Specific cutting coefficients and specific edge coefficients can be determined by applying linear regression to average cutting forces measured at different feed rates and this method is widely used in literature [39]. Mechanistic approach has limitations on milling with complex tools which have va- riable geometry along the axis of tool. Therefore, specific cutting coefficients are calculated as functions of shear stress, shear angle and friction angle [40] [41]. This method is called mechanics of milling model. In mechanics of milling model, oblique cutting force model is implemented to calculate the cutting coefficients [42][43]. This model is useful for general application to different cutters and it is applicable to cutters with variable geometry. Although orthogonal cutting database preparation is a time consuming process, it is very effective and accurate in calculating the cutting force coefficients [44]. In this thesis, since the aim is to obtain a generalized cutting force model that is ca- pable of covering different cutting processes and cutter geometries, mechanics of milling approach is used to calculate the cutting coefficients. Adaptation of this approach into the proposed cutting force model is demonstrated in Chapter 5. It is shown that the model can accurately predict the cutting forces for different cutter geometries and processes. Chapter 2. Literature Survey 12 2.4 Inserted Cutters Inserted (indexable) cutters are widely used in industry. In turning operations, most of the tools use inserts with wide selection of shapes and geometries. In milling, inserted mills with large diameters are widely used for machining operations such as rough and finish machining. Compared to solid type cutters, inserted end mills have the following advantages: β’ Higher material removal rate β’ More stable machining without chatter β’ Large cutter diameter availability β’ Better chip extraction performance β’ Longer tool life β’ Lower setup costs There have been only few studies available in modeling indexed cutters. Fu et al. [45] presented a model for inserted face milling cutters. They included corner radius, calculated equivalent axial and radial rake angles, and used experimentally identified cutting coefficients in their force model, which is improved in [46]. Various optimiza- tion methods with feed rate scheduling and surface error models have been studied by implementing mechanistic models in milling. Kim et al. [47] presented a feed rate scheduling algorithm for indexable end mills. Gu et al. [48] presented a model to predict the surface flatness in face milling. Ko and Altintas [49] developed a model for plunge milling operation using inserted cutters. Choudhury and Mathew [50] adopted non- uniform pitch angles to their face milling model. Most of the work done on inserted cutters is for certain types of cutters and very few researchers attempted to generalize a cutting model which can be applied to all cutters used in industry. Engin and Altintas [1] presented a cutting force model for indexable end milling. They generalized the envelope of the indexable end mill, and predicted cutting forces to evaluate surface roughness and chatter stability. They considered the insert edge on the cutter envelope to be straight line and used average cutting coeffi- cients varying along the axial disk elements. Also, the uncut chip thickness was calculated from a geometric model. This is the first approach to generalized inserted Chapter 2. Literature Survey 13 cutter geometries. However, this model cannot account for corner radius, chamfer edge, and wiper edge. In addition, insert shapes used in this model are not capable of resem- bling all insert shapes currently being used in industry. 2.5 Generalized Mechanics of Machining As described throughout this chapter, there are various successful cutting force models to determine the cutting mechanics for different operations. However, these models are mostly limited by specific machining process, cutter geometry and cutting conditions. There is a lack of a fundamental approach that can combine different models by using the mechanics of metal cutting. Armarego [51][52] proposed a unified cutting modeling approach by combining oblique cutting operations and defining the cutting forces in shear and friction directions. These unique studies to generalize the cutting models are the first and only approach so far, but he concluded his work by defining individual empirical equations for different cutting processes to predict the machining parameters as functions of tool geometry and cutting conditions. The aim of this thesis is to determine the cutting forces by using fundamentals of metal cutting mechanics. The cutting forces are expressed as friction and normal forces on the rake face, and by using the cutter geometry, forces are transformed to machine coordinates. This model can be applied to different metal cutting processes, such as, turning, milling, boring, and other cutting operations. Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 14 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 3.1 Overview In this chapter, definitions of the cutting tool geometry elements stated in ISO 3002 [53] and ISO 13399 [54] standards are summarized. These standards are published by the Organization for Standardization (ISO) and include the definitions of reference planes, major and minor cutting edge geometries, tool holders, connection elements, etc. Although the illustrations and figures in this chapter are mostly for turning tools and inserted cutters, they are applicable to the geometry of different individual tools, such as single-point tools, drills, and milling cutters. In the following sections, standard definitions are summarized and outlined in four different parts. In the first part, reference planes which are used to define the cutting angles are defined. The planes used in standards are defined for a selected point on the cutting edge. Since the most tool angles are designated by planes, so that the angles are defined for the same selected point on the cutting edge. In the second part, tool angles and other angular quantities are defined to describe the orientation of the cutting edge. In the third part, dimensional quantities necessary to describe the cutting edge are defined and finally, definitions of insert shapes, which are highly used in this thesis, are pre- sented. For the sake of simplicity, definitions of angular and dimensional quantities related only to major cutting edge are given. 3.2 Planes Tool Reference Plane (ππππ): A plane through the selected point on the cutting edge, so chosen as to be either parallel or perpendicular to a plane or axis of the. It is generally oriented perpendicular to the assumed direction of primary motion. For an ordinary turning system, it is a plane parallel to the base of the tool. For a milling cutters and drills, it is a plane containing the tool axis. Chapter 3.

It is generally oriented parallel to the assumed direction of feed motion. For ordinary lathe tools it is a plane perpendicular to the tool axis. For drills, facing tools, and parting-off tools, it is plane parallel to the tool axis. For milling cutters, it is a plane perpendicular to the tool axis. Tool Back Plane (ππππ): Tool back plane is a plane through a selected point on the cutting edge and perpendicular both to the tool reference plane ππππ and to the assumed working plane ππππ . Tool Cutting Edge Plane (πππ π ): Tool cutting edge plane is a plane tangential to the cutting edge at the selected point and perpendicular to the tool reference plane ππππ . Cutting Edge Normal Plane (ππππ ): Cutting edge normal plane is perpendicular to the cutting edge at the selected point on the cutting edge. Wiper Edge Normal Plane (ππππ ): Wiper edge normal plane is a plane through the intersection of the reference planes ππππ and ππππ perpendicular to the wiper edge. All the planes defined above are illustrated in Figure 3-1. Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 16 Figure 3-1: Planes Defined in ISO 3002 and ISO 13399. 3.3 Points and Angles Cutting Reference Point (πΆπΆπΆπΆππ): Cutting reference point is the theoretical point of the tool from which the major functional dimensions are taken. For the calculation of this point the following cases are applied. Figure 3-2 shows the cutting reference point for different types of cutting edges: Case 1: Cutting Edge Angle (π π ππ) β€ 90Β° - the point is the intersection of: the tool cutting edge plane πππ π , the assumed working plane ππππ , and the tool rake plane. Case 2: Cutting Edge Angle (π π ππ) β₯ 90Β°- the point is the intersection of: the as- sumed working plane ππππ , a plane perpendicular to assumed working plane and tangential to the cutting corner, and the tool rake plane. Case 3: ISO tool styles D and V (55Β° and 35Β° rhombic inserts respectively) with on- ly axial rake. The point is the intersection of: a plane perpendicular to the primary feed Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 17 direction and tangential to the cutting edge (tangential point), a plane parallel to the feed direction through the tangential point, and the tool rake plane. Case 4: Round inserts - a) feed direction parallel to the tool axis, primary used for turning tools. The point is the intersection of: a plane perpendicular to the primary feed direction and tangential to the cutting edge, a plane parallel to the feed direction through the tangential point, and the tool rake plane; b) feed direction perpendicular to the tool axis, primarily used for milling tools. The point is the intersection of: a plane perpendi- cular to the primary feed direction and tangential to the cutting edge, a plane parallel to the feed direction through the tangential point, and the tool rake plane.

It is also called side rake angle. Tool Axial Rake Angle (πΎπΎππ): Tool axial rake angle is the angle between rake face and tool reference plane ππππ measured in the tool back plane ππππ . It is also called back rake angle. Tool Normal Rake Angle (πΎπΎππ ): Tool normal rake is the angle for major cutting edge between the rake face and the reference plane ππππ measured in plane ππππ . Tool Included Angle (ππππ ): It is the angle between the tool cutting edge plane πππ π , and tool minor cutting edge plane. Simply, it is the angle between the major and minor cutting edges of a cutting item. Tool Cutting Edge Angle (π π ππ ): Tool cutting edge angle is the angle between πππ π and plane ππππ measured in the reference plane ππππ . In other words, it is the angle between major cutting edge and the direction of major feed. Tool Approach Angle (ππππ ): The angle between the tool cutting edge plane πππ π and the tool back plane ππππ measured in the tool reference plane ππππ . Tool approach angle is only defined for the major cutting edge. Thus at any selected point on the major cutting edge, the following equation is valid: π π ππ + ππππ = 90Β° (3.1) Tool Cutting Edge Inclination Angle (πππ π ): It is the angle between the cutting edge and the tool reference plane ππππ measured in the tool cutting edge plane πππ π . Tool cutting edge inclination angle is also referred as oblique angle or helix angle in milling tools. Corner Chamfer Angle (Ξππ): Corner chamfer angle is the angle of a chamfer on a corner measured from the major cutting edge. Angles defined in this section are shown in Figure 3-3 and Figure 3-4 and the defi- nitions of these angles are summarized in Table 3-I. Chapter 3.

ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 21 Figure 3-4: Dimensional Quantities Defined in the ISO Standards. 3.5 Insert Shapes In ISO 13399 standard, insert shapes are categorized in five main different shapes [54]. These categories are equilateral equiangular, equilateral nonequiangular, nonequi- lateral equiangular, nonequilateral nonequiangular and round inserts. For each main category, there are different shapes of inserts are defined. Table 3-II summarizes the definitions stated below with sample figures. 3.5.1 Equilateral Equiangular Insert Equilateral equiangular insert is a type of cutting item of regular geometric shape with sides of equal length and equal tool included angles. This category contains inserts with the ISO shape codes: T, S, P, O, and H. 1. Triangular Insert (T): Insert with three equal sides and three equal in- ternal angles with the included angle (ππππ ) of 60Β°. 2. Square Insert (S): Insert with four equal sides and four equal internal angles with the tool included angle (ππππ ) of 90Β°. 3.

ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 24 3.6 Tool Coordinate Frames and Transformations Coordinate transformations play an important role in this study, hence they are re- quired to define and transform the cutting mechanics from machine coordinate system to the rake face of the cutting tool. Machine coordinate system is defined by axes of the machine tool or the directions of the primary feed motion and primary cutting direction. On the other hand, chip flow coordinate system is defined in two axes; one is on the rake face and aligned in the direction of chip flow, and the second one is normal to the rake face and perpendicular to the chip flow axis. By using these transformations, it is possi- ble to remove the effects of tool geometry from the mechanics of cutting, and eliminate the complexity of different cutting operations such as, turning, milling etc. Two different coordinate frame definitions and rotations are considered in this the- sis. The following procedure is designed to transform the cutting forces or specific cutting force coefficients from machine coordinate system to the rake face. The mechan- ics of oblique cutting in turning operations is illustrated in Figure 3-5. In order to perform the transformations, chip flow angle (ππ), which is not defined in ISO standards, is used. Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 25 Figure 3-5: Mechanics of Oblique Cutting Process. 3.6.1 Turning Operations Machine Coordinate System (πΏπΏππππππππππ) Machine coordinate system (System 0) is given by the convention of the CNC sys- tem. The orientation of the machine coordinate system depends on the specific CNC tool, or the orientation of the dynamometer used to measure the cutting forces. In the most common approach, the ππ0 axis is collinear with the main spindle axis and the ππ0 and ππ0 axes are perpendicular to the ππ0 axis. On a lathe, the ππ0 axis is the one on which the tool post moves to and away from the workpieceβs axis of rotation. The sign conven- tion for this coordinate system is determined such that the movement of the tool in a positive direction leads to a growing measurement of the workpiece. Figure 3-6 shows the machine coordinate system on a turning tool. Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 26 Radial β Tangential β Axial Coordinate System (πΉπΉπΉπΉπ¨π¨) (πΏπΏππππππππππ) πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system is defined according to the directions of the cutting forces in orthogonal cutting. The forces in orthogonal turning are in the radial and the tangential directions, whereas the tangential direction is parallel to the direction of primary motion and the radial direction is perpendicular to the primary cutting edge and tool cutting edge plane πππ π . Both tangential and radial directions point towards the tool and the coordinate frameβs origin is on the cutting edge. The axial direction is perpendicular to both of these directions, pointing away from the tool shaft. In turning, geometrical transformation from the machine coordinate system (ππ0ππ0ππ0) to πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system (πππΌπΌπππΌπΌπππΌπΌ) can be performed by rotating the machine coordinate system around ππ0 axis by amount of cutting edge angle (π π ππ ) in negative direction. Figure 3-6 illustrates the machine coordinate system and the πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system on a turning tool. The transformation to the machine coordinate system can be expressed by a linear rotation matrix πΆπΆ01 , so that: ππ0 = πΆπΆ01 ππ1 (3.2) where vector ππ0 is defined in System 0 and vector ππ1 is defined in System 1. Rota- tion matrix πΆπΆ01 can be expressed as follows: πΆπΆ01 = οΏ½cos π π ππ 0 β sin π π ππ0 1 0sinπ π ππ 0 cos π π ππ οΏ½ = β£ β’ β’ β’ β‘cos οΏ½ππ2 β πππποΏ½ 0 β sin οΏ½ππ2 β πππποΏ½0 1 0sin οΏ½ππ2 β πππποΏ½ 0 cos οΏ½ππ2 β πππποΏ½ β¦β₯β₯β₯ β€ πΆπΆ01 = οΏ½sinππππ 0 β cosππππ0 1 0cosππππ 0 sinππππ οΏ½ (3.3) Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 27 Figure 3-6: RTA and the Machine Coordinate Systems on a Lathe. Similarly, the inverse transformation from System 0 to System 1 can be determined by calculating the inverse of πΆπΆ01: πΆπΆ10 = πΆπΆ01β1 = πΆπΆ01π π πΆπΆ10 = οΏ½ cos π π ππ 0 sinπ π ππ0 1 0 βsinπ π ππ 0 cos π π πποΏ½ = οΏ½ sinππππ 0 cosππππ0 1 0βcosππππ 0 sinππππ οΏ½ (3.4) Cutting Edge Coordinate System (πΏπΏππππππππππππππππ) Figure 3-7 illustrates the cutting edge coordinate system (System 2, (πππΌπΌπΌπΌ ,πππΌπΌπΌπΌ ,πππΌπΌπΌπΌ)). The πππΌπΌπΌπΌ axis of the cutting edge coordinate system lies along the cutting edge of the tool, πππΌπΌπΌπΌ axis is collinear with πΆπΆ axis, and πππΌπΌπΌπΌ axis is defined perpendicular to πππΌπΌπΌπΌ and πππΌπΌπΌπΌ axes. This coordinate frame is also used for the definition of the oblique cutting mechan- ics in Altintas [5]. In order to transform the πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system (System 1) to cutting edge coordinate system (System 2), πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system needs to be rotated about πΆπΆ axis by the amount of inclination (helix) angle (πππ π ) and additionally, a 90Β° rotation around the π΄π΄ axis and 90Β° rotation around the πΆπΆ axis need to be performed, in order to get the axes pointing the proper directions.

The πππΌπΌπΌπΌπΌπΌ axis of the rake face coordinate system is defined on the cutting edge and πππΌπΌπΌπΌπΌπΌ axis is defined on the rake face of the cutting tool. The trans- formation from cutting edge coordinate system (System 2) to the rake face coordinate system (System 3) can be accomplished by rotating the cutting edge coordinate system around πππΌπΌπΌπΌ axis by the amount of normal rake angle (πΎπΎππ ). Figure 3-8 shows the orienta- tion of the cutting edge coordinate system and rake face coordinate system, and the transformation matrix is shown in Eq. (3.7).

With this transformation operation, ππ(πππΌπΌππ) axis of the chip flow coordinate system becomes parallel to the friction force (πΉπΉπ’π’ ) and the ππ (πππΌπΌππ) axis becomes collinear with the normal force (πΉπΉπ£π£) acting on the rake face. ππ or πππΌπΌππ axis has no physical mean- ing and will be omitted in this study. Figure 3-9 shows the relationship between the rake face coordinate system and the chip flow coordinate system. The transformation between rake face coordinate system and the chip flow coordinate system can be described by the following equation: οΏ½ππ ππ οΏ½ = οΏ½0 β sin ππ cos ππ1 0 0 οΏ½ οΏ½πππΌπΌπΌπΌπΌπΌπππΌπΌπΌπΌπΌπΌ πππΌπΌπΌπΌπΌπΌ οΏ½ (3.8) Figure 3-9: Chip Flow Coordinate System (System 4): Rotation around the πΏπΏππππππ Axis by the Amount of Chip Flow Angle πΌπΌ.

Therefore, for each flute, following transforma- tions should be defined individually. Machine Coordinate System (πΏπΏππππ) Similar to a turning machine, the ππ axis of the machine coordinate system (System 0, (ππππππ)) is parallel to the axis of the spindle. In milling machines, the ππ axis is the main axis parallel to the working surface, and the ππ axis can be found accordingly. Radial β Tangential β Axial Coordinate System (πΉπΉπΉπΉπ¨π¨) πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system (System 1, (πππΌπΌπππΌπΌπππΌπΌ)) is defined similar to a turning tool. Since the cutting edge on a rotary tool is positioned differently relative to the machine coordinate system (System 0), there is a slight difference between transformations in turning and other operations. Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 32 In order to perform the transformations from machine coordinate system to RTA coordinate system, an additional coordinate system (System *) is introduced for each flute. System * has its origin located at the selected point on the cutting edge and rotates with the tool. The angle between the machine coordinate system and this coordinate frame is the immersion angle (ππ). Figure 3-10 illustrates the introduced coordinate system. Immersion angle ππ is measured clockwise between the positive ππ axis and the flutes of the cutting tool. The axes of the System * are aligned so that they are parallel to ππππππ for a cutting flute positioned on the ππ axis, in which the immersion angle is equal to 90Β° (Flute 2 in Figure 3-10). For instance, when ππ is equal to 0Β° (Flute 1 in Figure 3-10) the transformation between System 0 and System * is a rotation around the ππ axis by an amount of 90Β°. Figure 3-10: Illustration of System * on a Rotary Tool with Four Flutes. Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 33 Consequently, the transformation from tool coordinate system (System *) to ma- chine coordinate system (System 0) is a combination of two basic rotations: πΆπΆβ0 = οΏ½cosππ β sinππ 0sinππ cosππ 00 0 1οΏ½ οΏ½ cos 90Β° sin 90Β° 0β sin 90Β° cos 90Β° 00 0 1οΏ½ πΆπΆβ0 = οΏ½ sinππ cosππ 0βcosππ sinππ 00 0 1οΏ½ (3.11) In πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system, π π axis is defined parallel to the primary rotational mo- tion of the tool, πΆπΆ axis is aligned towards the axis of the tool while being normal to the cutting edge, and π΄π΄ axis is defined on the cutting edge. The direction of πΆπΆ axis is represented with cutting element position angle (180Β° β ππππ). So, the transformation from πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system (System 1) to System * is a positive rotation around the ππβ axis by an amount of π π ππ + 90Β°. Figure 3-11 shows the transformation and the resulting transformation matrix is: πΆπΆ1β = οΏ½ cos(π π ππ + 90Β°) 0 sin(π π ππ + 90Β°)0 1 0 βsin(π π ππ + 90Β°) 0 cos(π π ππ + 90Β°)οΏ½ = οΏ½β sin π π ππ 0 cos π π ππ0 1 0cos π π ππ 0 β sin π π πποΏ½ πΆπΆ1β = οΏ½ cos(180Β° β ππππ) 0 sin(180Β° β ππππ)0 1 0 βsin(180Β° β ππππ) 0 cos(180Β° β ππππ)οΏ½ = οΏ½β cosππππ 0 sinππππ0 1 0sinππππ 0 β cosπππποΏ½ (3.12) Chapter 3. ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 34 Figure 3-11: Transformation between System 1 and System *. Thus, the resultant transformation from machine coordinate system to πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordi- nate system can be found as the following: πΆπΆ10 = πΆπΆ1β πΆπΆβ0 = οΏ½β sin π π ππ 0 cos π π ππ0 1 0cos π π ππ 0 β sin π π πποΏ½ οΏ½ sinππ cosππ 0βcosππ sinππ 00 0 1οΏ½ πΆπΆ10 = οΏ½βsinππ sinπ π ππ βcosππ sinπ π ππ cos π π ππβcosππ sinππ 0 βsinππ cos π π ππ βcosππ cos π π ππ β sin π π πποΏ½ (3.13) Cutting Edge Coordinate System (πΏπΏππππππππππππππππ) For rotary tools, cutting edge coordinate system (System 2, (πππΌπΌπΌπΌπππΌπΌπΌπΌπππΌπΌπΌπΌ)) is defined the same as turning operations. The transformation from cutting edge coordinate system (System 2) and the πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system (System 1) is stated in Eq. (3.14). The coordinate system is demonstrated in Figure 3-12.

Chip Flow Coordinate System (πΌπΌπΌπΌ) Chip flow coordinate system (System 4, (πππΌπΌπππππΌπΌπππππΌπΌππ)) for rotary tools is defined same as turning. It has only two axes: ππ axis is on the rake face, aligned with the direc- tion of chip flow, and ππ axis is normal to the rake face. Figure 3-14 shows the representation of chip flow coordinate system on a rotary tool. In this figure, ππ axis has no physical meaning and is shown only to complete the coordinate system. Chapter 3.

ISO Cutting Tool Geometry 38 3.7 Summary If the transformation operations in turning and rotating tools are compared, it can be observed that the transformation matrices from πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system (System 1) to ππππ coordinate system (System 4) are identical. The only difference between these opera- tions comes from the rotation of multiple flutes in rotary tools. This difference is explained in Section 0. By performing these transformations, it is possible to describe the kinematics of the cutting process and cutting forces on the rake face of a cutter regardless of the operation. Thus, cutting forces measurable in machine coordinate system can be described as the friction and normal forces which are in the chip flow coordinate system. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 39 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 4.1 Overview In this chapter, a generalized model for inserted cutters is presented. Inserted cutters are widely used in turning and milling processes, both in roughing and finishing opera- tions because of their low cost advantage on solid cutters. When tool wear or breakage occurs, instead of replacing the cutter body, replacing the insert is sufficient. Due to their popularity and availability in different types of applications, many different inserts are available in terms of shapes and dimensions. As described in Section 3.5, 17 different insert shapes are defined in ISO 13399 standard. Details of these shapes can be seen in Table 3-II of Chapter 3. Since this thesis aims to develop a generalized model, it covers not only insert shapes defined in ISO 13399, but also any arbitrary insert geometry defined by control points. Modeling of inserted cutters is more complicated than solid body cutters, because number of parameters used to define the insert geometry as well as to place on the cutter body is significantly higher. The output of this model is the axial locations, radii, helix / inclination angles, normal rake angles, and cutting edge angles of the cutting edge(s) at each specified point along the cutter axis. By using this data, it is possible to determine the cutting forces, tool vibrations, static deflections, and stability lobes for almost any kind of machining operations, such as, turning, boring, milling, etc. In the model, first of all, geometry of the insert is defined insertβs local coordinate system analytically and it is placed on the cutter body using the orientation angles, i.e. cutting edge angle π π ππ , axial rake angle πΎπΎππ , and radial rake angle πΎπΎππ . By using these angles, cutting edge positions are transformed to global coordinate system which is located at the cutter tip. After the transformation, for cutting mechanics which is described in Chapter 5.2, normal rake angle πΎπΎππ and helix angle πππ π are calculated using the position of the cutting edge(s). Sample examples are presented at the end of this chapter. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 40 Inputs required to define the cutting edge on an insert are defined in Chapter 3 with illustrative figures, along with the coordinate axes used in this model. 4.2 Mathematical Modeling of an Insert In mathematical modeling, a similar approach to Engin and Altintasβ study [1] has been used with certain modifications and improvements. Firstly, using the inputs, mathematical model of one insert was developed on the local coordinate system (ππ0ππ0ππ0) positioned at the cutting reference point (πΆπΆπΆπΆππ) of the insert. Figure 4-1 illustrates the local coordinate system and the cutting reference point on two different inserts. The aim of this model is to calculate the control points that are sufficient to define the features (nose radius, corner chamfer, wiper edge etc.) on an insert. Figure 4-1: Local Coordinate Systems and Cutting Reference Points on Different Inserts. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 41 In ISO 13399 standard, there are various shapes defined for inserts. Therefore, for this study, for each insert shape, control points were formulated for both corner chamfer and nose radius cases. Control points include the positions of the start and the end points of a feature on the cutting edge. For ISO type inserts, these control points are all in π₯π₯0π§π§0 plane, therefore they were all assumed to be flat inserts. For instance, Figure 4-2 shows the control points and dimensions of a parallelogram insert with a wiper edge and a corner radius. In this Figure, points π΄π΄,π΅π΅,π·π·, and πΈπΈ are the control points on the cutting edge, πΆπΆ and πΌπΌ used to locate the insert center and the center of corner radius, πΆπΆπΆπΆππ is the cutting reference point which is the origin for specific dimensions and rotations, point πΉπΉ is the theoretical sharp point of the insert. Figure 4-2: Control Points on a Parallelogram Insert. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 42 Cutting reference point was selected as the origin of the local coordinate system. Locations of each control point as well as insert and radius centers were calculated analytically. These control points are rotated according to the given axial and radial rake angles, and transformed to the global coordinate system which is located at the tip of the cutter body. Finally, for modeling of mechanics, normal rake angle, helix angle, and true cutting edge angle were calculated for each point on the cutting edge. In the following sections, transformations and calculations of angles are described and the whole procedure is applied as examples for two milling inserts with different corner modifications and a turning insert. 4.3 Tool Coordinate Frames and Transformations Since the cutting reference point (πΆπΆπΆπΆππ) is used to define all the angular and dimen- sional values to define an insert, all of the coordinate axesβ origins used in this model to orient and place the insert on the cutter body are located at the πΆπΆπΆπΆππ. Four different coordinate systems were defined to accomplish the required rotations for the orientation of an insert on the cutter body. Initial coordinate frame πΉπΉ0 is located with its origin at πΆπΆπΆπΆππ and the ππ axis (ππ0) along the primary feed direction as seen in Figure 4-3. ππ axis (ππ0) of the πΉπΉ0 frame is parallel to the cutter body rotation axis and positive ππ0 is pointing towards the cutter body. In πΉπΉ0 frame, ππ0ππ0 plane corresponds to tool reference plane ππππ , and ππ0ππ0 plane corresponds to assumed working plane ππππ . Final coordinate frame πΉπΉ3 has its ππ axis (ππ3) directed along the cutting edge and the ππ axis (ππ3) on the rake face of the insert. In order to transform the πΉπΉ0 frame to πΉπΉ3 frame, two intermediate coordinate frames were defined. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 43 Figure 4-3: Frame ππππ to Frame ππππ Rotation. 4.3.1 Frame ππππ to Frame ππππ Rotation The first step is to align the ππ1 axis with the wiper edge or parallel land in a coordi- nate frame πΉπΉ1 by rotating the frame πΉπΉ0 around ππ0 axis by an amount of radial rake angle in the reverse direction (βπΎπΎππ). As a result, the rotation matrix πΆπΆ01 from frame πΉπΉ0 to frame πΉπΉ1 becomes: πππ§π§01 = βπΎπΎππ πΆπΆ01 = οΏ½cos(βπΎπΎππ) β sin(βπΎπΎππ) 0sin(βπΎπΎππ) cos(βπΎπΎππ) 00 0 1οΏ½ (4.1) Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 44 4.3.2 Frame ππππ to Frame ππππ Rotation The second step is to align the ππ2 axis of the frame πΉπΉ2 with the rake face of the in- sert by rotating the frame πΉπΉ1 around ππ1 axis by an amount of axial rake angle also in reverse direction (βπΎπΎππ ). Consequently, the rotation matrix πΆπΆ12 which defines the rotation from frame πΉπΉ1 to frame πΉπΉ2 becomes: πππ₯π₯12 = βπΎπΎππ πΆπΆ12 = οΏ½1 0 00 cos(βπΎπΎππ) β sin(βπΎπΎππ)0 sin(βπΎπΎππ) cos(βπΎπΎππ) οΏ½ (4.2) Figure 4-4: Frame ππππ to Frame ππππ Rotation. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 45 4.3.3 Frame ππππ to Frame ππππ Rotation The final step is to align the ππ3 axis of the frame πΉπΉ3 with the cutting edge of the in- sert by rotating the frame πΉπΉ2 around the ππ2 axis by an amount of cutting edge angle in the reverse direction (βπ π ππ). So that the rotation matrix πΆπΆ23 defining the rotation from frame πΉπΉ2 to frame πΉπΉ3 is: πππ¦π¦23 = βπ π ππ πΆπΆ23 = οΏ½ cos(βπ π ππ) 0 sin(βπ π ππ)0 1 0 β sin(βπ π ππ) 0 cos(βπ π ππ)οΏ½ (4.3) Figure 4-5: Frame ππππ to Frame ππππ Rotation. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 46 Finally, in order to complete the rotation matrix between frames πΉπΉ0 and πΉπΉ3 can be calculated as the following: πΆπΆ03 = πΆπΆ01 πΆπΆ12 πΆπΆ23 (4.4) where; πΆπΆ03 = οΏ½cos πΎπΎππ cos π π ππ + sin πΎπΎππ sin πΎπΎππ sin π π ππ sin πΎπΎππ cos πΎπΎππ β cos πΎπΎππ sin π π ππ + sin πΎπΎππ sin πΎπΎππ cos π π ππsin πΎπΎππ cos π π ππ + cos πΎπΎππ sin πΎπΎππ sin π π ππ cos πΎπΎππ cos πΎπΎππ sin πΎπΎππ sin π π ππ + cos πΎπΎππ sin πΎπΎππ cos π π ππcos πΎπΎππ sin π π ππ β sin πΎπΎππ cos πΎπΎππ cos π π ππ οΏ½ (4.5) 4.4 Mathematical Relationships between Angles Next task in mathematical modeling of insert geometry is to derive the angles used in mechanics of metal cutting which are normal rake angle πΎπΎππ , helix / inclination gle πππ π , and cutting edge angle π π ππ . These angles were derived according to the definitions summarized in Chapter 3. 4.4.1 Normal Rake Angle The normal rake angle πΎπΎππ can be described as the angle between the direction of primary motion vector (βππ0) and the normal of the rake face (ππ3) measured in the cutting edge normal plane ππππ (ππ3ππ3 plane). In order to determine the normal rake angle using the tool design angles (πΎπΎππ and πΎπΎππ), a vector (π£π£0) directed along the direction of primary motion was defined in frame πΉπΉ0. Vector π£π£0 later can be described in frame πΉπΉ3 with the inverse of the rotation matrix πΆπΆ03. Therefore: π£π£0 = οΏ½ 0β10 οΏ½ β π£π£3 = πΆπΆ03β1 π£π£0 = πΆπΆ03π π π£π£0 π£π£3 = οΏ½ cos πΎπΎππ cos π π ππ β cos πΎπΎππ sin πΎπΎππ sin π π ππβ cos πΎπΎππ cos πΎπΎππ β sin πΎπΎππ sinπ π ππ β cos πΎπΎππ sin πΎπΎππ cos π π πποΏ½ = οΏ½ π£π£3π₯π₯ π£π£3π¦π¦ π£π£3π§π§ οΏ½ (4.6) Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 47 In order to measure the normal rake angle πΎπΎππ in ππππ plane, π₯π₯ component of the π£π£3 vector (π£π£3π₯π₯ ) was set to zero. From Figure 4-6, it can be observed that: πΎπΎππ = atan(βπ£π£3π§π§βπ£π£3π¦π¦) = atan(π£π£3π§π§π£π£3π¦π¦) πΎπΎππ = atan(sin πΎπΎππ sin π π ππ + cos πΎπΎππ sin πΎπΎππ cos π π ππcos πΎπΎππ cos πΎπΎππ ) (4.7) Figure 4-6: Derivation of Normal Rake Angle. 4.4.2 True Cutting Edge Angle True cutting edge π π ππβ is defined as the angle between the cutting edge (ππ3) and the assumed working plane ππππ (ππ0ππ0 plane) measured in the tool reference plane ππππ (ππ0ππ0 plane). The mathematical relationship between the true cutting edge angle π π ππβ and the tool design angles (πΎπΎππ , πΎπΎππ and π π ππ ) can be calculated by defining a vector, π£π£π‘π‘ππππ π‘π‘3 , along the cutting edge in frame πΉπΉ3 and using the rotation matrix πΆπΆ03 to describe the vector in πΉπΉ0 coordinate frame. In order to measure the angle in tool reference plane ππππ , π£π£π‘π‘πππππ‘π‘0π¦π¦ component of the vector π£π£π‘π‘πππππ‘π‘3 was set to zero. As a result, true cutting edge angle π π ππβ can be determined as the angle between the cutting edge vector π£π£π‘π‘πππππ‘π‘0 and the ππ0 axis. Chapter 4.

In order to relate the tool design angles, a new coordinate frame must be defined such that the frame πΉπΉπ π has its πππ π axis aligned with the tool cutting edge plane πππ π , and its πππ π axis aligned with ππ0 axis of the coordinate frame πΉπΉ0. Figure 4-8 illustrates the frame πΉπΉπ π . Since a rotation of β οΏ½ππ2 β π π πποΏ½ around the ππ0 axis is needed to align the πππ π axis with the plane πππ π , the rotation matrix between frames πΉπΉ0 and πΉπΉπ π becomes: Chapter 4.

Calculation of these angles is important to determine cutting forces along the cutting edge. In most cases, radial and axial rakes are constant along the cutting edge of the insert, and cutting edge angle changes with the edge modification; it becomes a different constant value along the chamfered corner, and quadratically changes along the round edges. Using the vectors and formulations derived in this chapter, it is possible to calculate the angles at each selected point on the cutting edge. In the next section, as case examples, several different inserts were selected and modeled using the proposed model. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 51 4.5 Examples 4.5.1 Rectangular Insert with Corner Radius The first selected sample case is a rectangular milling insert with a corner radius. In- sert and cutter body geometry were taken from Sandvik Coromant [55]. These dimensions are listed in Table 4-I and illustrated in Figure 4-10. Table 4-I: Inputs Used in the Model.

After obtaining the dimensions and the angles required for the placement of the in- sert on the cutter body, insert center is calculated in (ππ0ππ0) plane. In Figure 4-11, insert center is defined by point πΌπΌ(π₯π₯, π§π§): Chapter 4.

Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 53 The second step is to calculate locations of control points which define the cutting edge. In this case, these points are π΄π΄, π΅π΅, π·π·, and πΈπΈ. Wiper edge is on the feed plane and defined by a between points π΄π΄ and π΅π΅. The locations of these points can be calculated as: π΄π΄π₯π₯ = βπππ π + π·π·ππ2 β ππππsinπ π ππ + ππππ cot π π ππ , π΄π΄π§π§ = 0 (4.14) π΅π΅π₯π₯ = π·π·ππ2 β ππππsin π π ππ + ππππ cot π π ππ , π΅π΅π§π§ = 0 (4.15) Corner edge is also defined by two points; points π΅π΅ and π·π·. Similarly, location of point π·π· can be calculated by the following equations: π·π·π₯π₯ = π·π·ππ2 + ππππ sinπ π ππ β ππππsin π π ππ + ππππ cos π π ππsin π π ππ , π·π·π§π§ = |ππππ(β1 + cos π π ππ)| (4.16) Since there are only two symmetrical edges on a rectangular insert (Figure 4-10), corner modification is present only at two corners, thus main cutting edge is defined by points π·π· and πΈπΈ. The position of point πΈπΈ can be calculated as: πΈπΈπ₯π₯ = π·π·ππ2 + ππππ sinπ π ππ β ππππsinπ π ππ + (βπππ π + ππππ cot ππππ) cos2 π π ππ+ οΏ½πΏπΏ β ππππ sin π π ππ + ππππsin π π ππ β ππππ cot ππππ β πππ π sinπ π ππ cot πππποΏ½ cos π π ππ πΈπΈπ§π§ = |βπΏπΏ sinπ π ππ + πππ π cot ππππ + ππππ sin π π ππ cot ππππ + (βππππ β πππ π cot ππππ) cos2 π π ππ+ (ππππ + πππ π sinπ π ππ β ππππ sinπ π ππ cot ππππ) cos π π ππ | (4.17) After the calculation of control points and the cutting edges between these points, cutting edge is defined in (ππ0ππ0) plane in two dimensions. Rotation about ππ0 axis by π π ππ has been already implemented in these equations in order to make sure that the wiper edge is parallel to (ππππ) plane. Moreover, these locations were defined in global ππππππ coordinate frame with the tool tip as origin, therefore, these points must be translated to cutting reference point then the rotations presented in Section 4.3 must be performed. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 54 Transformations from a fixed frame is not commonly used in robotics, however, placement of the insert on the cutter body is a fixed frame transformation. Fixed frame transformation matrix can be calculated by taking the inverse of the current frame transformation using the same rotations [56]. After the rotations, all control points were transformed back to global ππππππ coordinate frame. Following figures show the locations of the control points before and after the transformations in global coordinate system. Figure 4-12: Control Points of the Insert before the Rotations. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 55 Figure 4-13 : Control Points of the Insert after the Rotations. Following the rotations of the control points, lines and arcs between the consecutive points were defined in three dimensions. Since the performed rotations were solid body rotations, the relationship between any consecutive points would be same. However, these lines and arcs were no longer in (ππ0ππ0) plane; therefore, parametric equations were defined to obtain the location of each selected point on the cutting edge. For linear cutting edges: ππ = πποΏ½βππβ1 + οΏ½πποΏ½βππ β πποΏ½βππβ1οΏ½ π‘π‘ , 0 β€ π‘π‘ β€ 1 (4.18) For arcs: ππ = πΆπΆ cos π‘π‘ π’π’οΏ½β + πΆπΆ sin π‘π‘ πποΏ½β Γ π’π’οΏ½β + πΆπΆ, 0 β€ π‘π‘ β€ ππ2 (4.19) Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 56 where ππ is any point between πποΏ½βππ and πποΏ½βππβ1 which are two consecutive control points, πΆπΆ is the radius of the arc, π’π’οΏ½β is a unit vector from the center of the arc to any point on the circumference, πποΏ½β is a unit vector perpendicular to the plane of the arc, and πΆπΆ is the center vector of the arc. Note that these equations are parametric equations, in order to calculate the positions along the cutter axis, the relationship between any axial point and corres- ponding parameter value should be calculated. During the calculation of geometric control points, cutting edge shape between any two consecutive points are stored and during the general model, corresponding parametric equation is called automatically. The radius of any point on the cutting edge can be calculated by a point β line distance equation in space. Hence: ππ = οΏ½(ππ2 β ππ1) Γ (ππ1 β πποΏ½β )οΏ½ οΏ½ππ2 β ππ1οΏ½ (4.20) where ππ is the local radius, ππ1 and ππ2 are any two points along the cutter axis. Using these formulations and rotation matrix developed in section 4.3, it is possible to calculate the local radius, normal rake angle, and helix angle of any point on the cutting edge of the insert. Figure 4-14: CAD Model of the Insert. Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 57 Figure 4-15 shows the local radii of the insert along the cutter axis with comparison of the local radii extracted from the CAD part of the insert which is shown in Figure 4-14. As stated before, this model is valid for flat inserts; therefore, due to the complexi- ty of the insert geometry, mathematical model and CAD data does not match perfectly. However, the error is acceptable; since the maximum error between the model and the insert is around 50 microns. Figure 4-16 and Figure 4-17 show the change in the normal rake angle and helix angle along the cutter axis respectively. Figure 4-15: Change of Local Radius along the Tool Axis. Chapter 4.

For this type of insert, control points are points π΄π΄,π΅π΅,πΆπΆ, and π·π·. Locations of these points can be calculated as the following: Chapter 4.

As a result, tool angles and local radii were calculated along the cutting edge of this insert. Following figures illustrate these results.

Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 63 4.5.3 Rhombic Turning Insert As stated before, geometric model of inserted cutters can be applied not only for milling inserts, but also turning inserts. For that purpose, a rhombic (diamond) shaped insert was selected for analysis. Table 4-III and Figure 4-23 show the insert geometry. Table 4-III: Inputs for the Rhombic Turning Insert. Inputs π³π³ (Insert Length) 15 mm πΏπΏππ (Cutting Edge Angle) 93Β° ππππ (Insert Width) - πΈπΈππ (Radial Rake Angle) -8Β° ππππ (Wiper Edge Length) - πΈπΈππ (Axial Rake Angle) -10Β° πππΊπΊ (Corner Radius) 1.6 mm πΊπΊππ (Tool Included Angle) 55Β° Figure 4-23: Catalogue Figures of the Turning Insert [55]. In the analysis of turning tools, similar procedure to previous examples was applied with some certain modifications. Since turning tools do not rotate, π·π·ππ (Cutting Diameter) is not defined. Moreover, wiper edge was also not considered for turning tools. As a result, instead of tool axis tip, intersection between cutting edge and feed plane (Point π΄π΄ in Figure 4-24) was selected as the origin of the global coordinate system. Figure 4-24 shows the variable and control points used in the analysis of this type of insert. Chapter 4.

Chapter 4. Generalized Geometric Model of Inserted Cutters 67 4.6 Summary In this chapter, the analytical calculations needed to define and orient the cutting edge on a cutter or tool holder is presented. Variables used in the equations have been obtained from ISO standards ISO 3002 and ISO 13399. It is shown that for any type of insert geometry, it is possible to define the cutting edge on the tool axis and to convert from design angles to physical angles. From the definitions and transformation equations, it can be observed that normal rake angle πΎπΎππ and helix (inclination) angle πππ π are functions of the cutting edge angle π π ππ , radial rake angle πΎπΎππ , and axial rake angle πΎπΎππ . As a result, any change in one of these angles along the cutting edge alters others. However, in this study, axial and radial rake angles are kept constant; therefore, changes observed in helix and normal rake angles in the presented figures are due to the cutting angle changes along the corner modifications. For instance, for an insert with -10Β° axial rake and -8Β° radial rake, as the cutting edge angle changes from 0Β° to 93Β°, normal rake angle changes from -13Β° to -9Β° and the helix angle changes from +6Β° to -10Β° along 1.6 mm corner radius. In the next chapter, generalized mechanics of metal cutting is presented. A new cut- ting force model which is applicable to different cutting processes is introduced and simulations are presented with experimental verifications. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 68 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 5.1 Overview In this chapter, generalized modeling of cutting forces using the mechanics on the rake face, the friction force πΉπΉπ’π’ and the normal force πΉπΉπ£π£, is presented. The generalized model is compared with the current cutting force models in the literature, and the rela- tionships between the models are presented. In addition to cutting force models, calibration and material models are summarized and their transformations to the proposed model are presented. With this information, it is possible to convert most of the models currently being used in the literature to the proposed model. 5.2 Rake Face Based General Force Model The normal and friction forces on the rake face are used as the base in predicting the cutting forces in the machining system. Figure 5-1 shows a sample oblique cutting process with all the variables used in this study. In Figure 5-1, ?β?πΉ is the total resultant force, πΉπΉπ’π’οΏ½οΏ½οΏ½β is the friction force on the rake face, πΉπΉπ£π£οΏ½οΏ½οΏ½β is the normal force on the rake face, πΉπΉπ π οΏ½οΏ½οΏ½β and πΉπΉπποΏ½οΏ½οΏ½β are the shearing and normal forces acting on the shear plane respectively, πΎπΎππ is the rake angle, πππ π is the inclination / helix angle, ππ is the chip flow angle, ππππ is the normal shear angle, π½π½ππ is the friction angle, and finally, ππ and β are the width of cut and uncut chip thickness respectively. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 69 Figure 5-1: Mechanics of Oblique Cutting [11]. For a differential chip load (πππ΄π΄ππ) in an engagement with a selected point on the cut- ting edge of the tool, the differential friction (πππΉπΉπ’π’ ) and the differential normal force (πππΉπΉπ£π£) acting on the rake face can be expressed as, πππΉπΉπ’π’ = πΎπΎπ’π’ππ πππ΄π΄ππ + πΎπΎπ’π’π‘π‘ ππππ πππΉπΉπ£π£ = πΎπΎπ£π£ππ πππ΄π΄ππ + πΎπΎπ£π£π‘π‘ ππππ (5.1) where πΎπΎπ’π’ππ and πΎπΎπ£π£ππ are the friction and normal cutting coefficients and πΎπΎπ’π’π‘π‘ and πΎπΎπ£π£π‘π‘ are the related edge coefficients. These specific cutting coefficients depend on the tool β workpiece combination. For a specific workpiece, these cutting coefficients can be described as a function of chip thickness, rake angle, and the cutting speed (ππππ), they are called size, geometry and speed effects, respectively. The identification of the cutting Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 70 force coefficients are explained in the following sections. In Eq. (5.1), πππ΄π΄ππ and ππππ are differential chip area and differential cutting edge length can be calculated with the following; πππ΄π΄ππ = β ππ ππππ = πππ‘π‘ππππ = ππsin π π ππ (5.2) Once the differential friction (πππΉπΉπ’π’ ) and differential normal (πππΉπΉπ£π£) cutting forces are evaluated through the use of Eq. (5.1), they can be transformed into machine coordinate system (ππππππ) with procedure described in Chapter 4.3. Since the tool geometry (rake, helix, cutting edge angles) may change along the cutting edge of the tool, these trans- formations must be repeated for each differential part of the cutting edge(s). After the transformation process, the differential forces are summed to determine the total cutting forces acting on the machine coordinates (πΉπΉπ₯π₯ , πΉπΉπ¦π¦ , and πΉπΉπ§π§), as: οΏ½ πΉπΉπ₯π₯ πΉπΉπ¦π¦ πΉπΉπ§π§ οΏ½ = οΏ½οΏ½οΏ½πππΉπΉπ₯π₯πππΉπΉπ¦π¦ πππΉπΉπ§π§ οΏ½ πΎπΎ ππ=1 ππππ ππ=1 οΏ½ ππ ,ππ (5.3) where ππππ is the total number of cutting edges and πΎπΎ represents the total number of discrete points along the cutting edge ππ. Proposed cutting force model is summarized in Figure 5-2. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 71 Figure 5-2: Summary of the Proposed Mechanistic Approach. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 72 5.3 Identification of Specific Cutting Coefficients Accurate determination of cutting force coefficients is critical to cutting force pre- diction. There are several parameters influencing the cutting force coefficients and they can be estimated either mechanistically or using classical orthogonal to oblique trans- formation method. The cutting force coefficients depend on: - Cutting Method : constant or varying chip volume removal (Turning vs. Milling) - Cutting Conditions: feed rate, depth of cut, cutting speed, use of coolant; - Workpiece Material: chemical composition; - Tool: tool material, chip breaker, tool wear. Since it is not possible to account for all of these variables simultaneously, only the effects of chip thickness, cutting speed, and normal rake angle have been considered which are most dominant. In the following sections, both mechanistic approach and classical approach are explained in detail to determine the specific cutting coefficients in friction (πΎπΎπ’π’ ) and normal (πΎπΎπ£π£) directions. 5.3.1 Orthogonal to Oblique Transformation Orthogonal cutting tests can be used to calculate the shear stress (πππ π ), shear angle (ππππ), and the friction angle (π½π½ππ ) as a function of chip thickness, rake angle, and cutting speed. However, cutting edge(s) are usually not orthogonal to the cutting velocity, but inclined with helix (πππ π ) or inclination (ππ) angle. Thus, an orthogonal to oblique transfor- mation needs to be applied. The same concept has been implemented stated in Shamoto and Altintas [11], except the cutting coefficients are calculated in normal and friction directions instead of radial, tangential, and axial directions. In orthogonal cutting, the rectangular shear plane area can be calculated as (Figure 5-3): π΄π΄π π ,πππππ‘π‘ βππππππππππππ = ππ βsinππππ (5.4) However, due to the helix angle (πππ π ) in oblique cutting, the shear plane area is a pa- rallelogram and its area can be calculated by: Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 73 π΄π΄π π ,πππππππππππ’π’π‘π‘ = ππ βcos πππ π sinππππ (5.5) Where ππππ is the normal shear angle, i.e. shear angle measured in the normal plane ππππ . In this study, using the same assumptions stated in Altintas [5], normal shear angle (ππππ ) has been assumed equal to the shear angle in orthogonal cutting (ππππ). Figure 5-3: Shear Plane Area Comparison: Orthogonal Cutting (Left) and Oblique Cutting (Right). In oblique cutting, shear force is equal to: πΉπΉπ π = πππ π π΄π΄π π = πππ π ππ βcos πππ π sinππππ (5.6) Detailed illustration of the oblique cutting geometry is shown in Figure 5-4 [11]. When the shearing force is transformed to Cartesian coordinates, following equations can be obtained: πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = πΉπΉπ π cosππππ cos ππππcos(ππππ + ππππ) (5.7) πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = βπΉπΉπ π sinππππ (5.8) πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = πΉπΉπ π cosππππ sinππππcos(ππππ + ππππ) (5.9) Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 74 Figure 5-4: Cutting Forces, Velocities, and Angles in Oblique Cutting [11]. In order to use Eq. (5.7), Eq. (5.8), and Eq. (5.9), the unknown angles ππππ and ππππ must be expressed with known angles. ππππ is the angle between cut surface and the resultant cutting force πΉπΉ. Due to the simplified geometry in Figure 5-5: ππππ = π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ (5.10) Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 75 Similarly, the tangent of ππππ is equal to the following: tanππππ = πΉπΉπ¦π¦πΌπΌπΌπΌπΉπΉπ π ππ (5.11) where πΉπΉπ π ππ is the projection of shear force πΉπΉπ π onto normal plane ππππ . Figure 5-5: Illustration of angle π½π½πΈπΈ. (ππππ,ππππππ, and ππππππ Are Projections of Forces onto Normal Plane). In Figure 5-4, πΉπΉππ can be expressed as, πΉπΉππ = πΉπΉπ π cosππππcos(ππππ + ππππ) = πΉπΉπ’π’ cos ππsinπ½π½ππ πΉπΉπ’π’ = πΉπΉπ π sinππππsin ππ (5.12) Combining equations (5.10) and (5.12) gives the following relationship: tanππππ = tan ππ sinπ½π½ππcos(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) (5.13) Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 76 And furthermore: cosππππ = cos(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ sinππππ = tan ππ sinπ½π½ππ οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ (5.14) Combining equations (5.7), (5.8), (5.9), and (5.10) with (5.14) results in: πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = πΉπΉπ π cos(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ = ππβ οΏ½ πππ π cos πππ π sinππππ cos(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½πποΏ½ πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = πΉπΉπ π sin(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ = ππβ οΏ½ πππ π cos πππ π sinππππ sin(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½πποΏ½ (5.15) Similarly, by substituting equations (5.6) and (5.16) into Equation (5.8): πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = βπΉπΉπ π tan ππ sinπ½π½ππ οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ = ππβ οΏ½β πππ π cos πππ π sinππππ tan ππ sinπ½π½πποΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½πποΏ½ (5.16) Corresponding specific cutting coefficients in πππΌπΌπΌπΌ ,πππΌπΌπΌπΌ , and πππΌπΌπΌπΌ directions can be eva- luated as: πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = οΏ½ πππ π cos πππ π sinππππ cos(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½πποΏ½ πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = οΏ½β πππ π cos πππ π sinππππ tan ππ sinπ½π½πποΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½πποΏ½ πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ = οΏ½ πππ π cos πππ π sinππππ sin(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½πποΏ½ (5.17) Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 77 The cutting coefficients are transformed from the cutting edge coordinate system (System 2) to chip flow coordinate system (System 4) to calculate the cutting coeffi- cients πΎπΎπ’π’ and πΎπΎπ£π£. It is possible to accomplish this task in two different ways. Firstly, these coefficients in the cutting edge coordinate system can be geometrically trans- formed into the chip flow coordinate system as described in Chapter 4.3. The transformation matrix required for this task πΆπΆ42 can be obtained by: πΆπΆ42 = (πΆπΆ23 πΆπΆ34)π π (5.18) Hence: οΏ½ πΎπΎπ’π’ πΎπΎπ£π£ οΏ½ = πΆπΆ42 οΏ½πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌπΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ οΏ½ οΏ½ πΎπΎπ’π’ πΎπΎπ£π£ οΏ½ = οΏ½sin πΎπΎππ cos ππ β sin ππ cos πΎπΎππ cos ππcos πΎπΎππ 0 β sin πΎπΎππ οΏ½ οΏ½πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌπΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌπΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ οΏ½ (5.19) As a result: πΎπΎπ’π’ = sin πΎπΎππ cos ππ πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ β sin ππ πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ + cos πΎπΎππ cos ππ πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ πΎπΎπ£π£ = cos πΎπΎππ πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ β sin πΎπΎππ πΎπΎπππΌπΌπΌπΌ (5.20) Alternatively, specific cutting coefficients in chip flow coordinate system can be calculated by evaluating the resultant force: πΉπΉ = οΏ½πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ2 + πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ2 + πΉπΉπππΌπΌπΌπΌ2 (5.21) By assuming that the average friction angle (π½π½ππ ) is equal to the friction angle (π½π½) in orthogonal cutting [5]. πΎπΎπ’π’ = πΉπΉππβ sinπ½π½ππ πΎπΎπ£π£ = πΉπΉππβ cosπ½π½ππ (5.22) Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 78 Figure 5-6 illustrates and summarizes the procedure outlined above. As result, spe- cific cutting coefficients πΎπΎπ’π’ and πΎπΎπ£π£ on friction and normal directions can be evaluated with the following equations: πΎπΎπ’π’ = πππ π οΏ½1 β tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππcos πππ π sinππππ οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ sinπ½π½ππ πΎπΎπ£π£ = πππ π οΏ½1 β tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππcos πππ π sinππππ οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ πππππ π π½π½ππ (5.23) Or applying the geometrical transformation in Equation (5.20): πΎπΎπ’π’ = πππ π πππππ π ππ(sin πΎπΎππ cos(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sinπ½π½ππ + cos πΎπΎππ sin(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ))cos πππ π sinππππ οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ πΎπΎπ£π£ = πππ π cos πΎπΎππ cos(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) (1 β tan πΎπΎππ tan(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ))cos πππ π sinππππ οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ (5.24) Figure 5-6: Summary of the Classical Approach in Cutting Coefficient Identification. In summary, cutting coefficients in friction and normal directions can be evaluated using orthogonal shear parameters by Eq. (5.24). After obtaining the cutting coefficients, cutting force model explained in Section 5.2 can be applied. The edge coefficients πΎπΎπ’π’π‘π‘ and πΎπΎπ£π£π‘π‘ can be calculated by transforming the edge coefficients from πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system to ππππ coordinate system. Alternatively, they can be added when the cutting forces are calculated and transformed back to the πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system or machine coordinate system.

Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 79 5.3.2 Mechanistic Identification Currently, the most commonly used approach to determine the cutting coefficients is the mechanistic identification. Although this approach cannot provide the detailed microscopic effects of the machining process, such as shearing and chip flow, it allows predicting the cutting forces without extensive turning tests. However, in mechanistic modeling, accurate determination of these cutting coefficients over a wide range of cutting conditions is time consuming, since it requires a large number of experiments with many parameters such as cutting tool β workpiece material combination, cutting tool geometry, cutting speed, and depth of cut. In the following sections, two different cases to identify the cutting coefficients πΎπΎπ’π’ and πΎπΎπ£π£ are discussed. Empirical Approach In the first case, calculations that are needed to identify the cutting coefficients from experiments are presented. By using this method, it is also possible to calculate the true chip flow angle (ππ). Since edge forces have no effect on shearing, they must be calculated and subtracted from total cutting forces in radial, tangential, and axial directions [5]. Thus, it is possible to reduce the cutting force equations as the following: πΉπΉππππ = πΎπΎππ π΄π΄ππ πΉπΉπ‘π‘ππ = πΎπΎπ‘π‘ π΄π΄ππ πΉπΉππππ = πΎπΎππ π΄π΄ππ (5.25) where πΉπΉππππ is the cutting force in ππ β (ππ, π‘π‘,ππ) direction, πΎπΎππ is the specific cutting coefficient in ππ direction, and π΄π΄ππ is the chip load. In order to evaluate the coefficients in normal and friction directions, the transformation equations derived in Chapter 4.3 are applied. πΎπΎππ = (πΎπΎπ’π’ cos πΎπΎππ cos ππ β πΎπΎπ£π£ sin πΎπΎππ) πΎπΎπ‘π‘ = (πΎπΎπ’π’ sin Ξ»s sin ππ + πΎπΎπ’π’ cos πππ π sin πΎπΎππ cos ππ + πΎπΎπ£π£ cos πππ π cos πΎπΎππ) πΎπΎππ = (βπΎπΎπ’π’ cos πππ π sin ππ + πΎπΎπ’π’ sin πππ π sin πΎπΎππ cos ππ + πΎπΎπ£π£ sin πππ π cos πΎπΎππ) (5.26) Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 80 In Equation (5.26), πΎπΎππ , πΎπΎπ‘π‘ , and πΎπΎππ can be obtained from cutting tests, normal rake (πΎπΎππ ) and oblique / helix angle (πππ π ) can be obtained from tool geometry, and πΎπΎπ’π’ , πΎπΎπ£π£, and chip flow angle (ππ) are unknown. There are three equations and three unknowns, howev- er, chip flow angle (ππ) is nonlinear. To overcome this problem, two new variables, πΎπΎπ’π’1 and πΎπΎπ’π’2 were introduced: πΎπΎπ’π’1 = πΎπΎπ’π’ cos ππ πΎπΎπ’π’2 = πΎπΎπ’π’ sin ππ (5.27) Substituting Equation (5.27) into Equation (5.26): πΎπΎππ = πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 1πΎπΎπ’π’1 + πΆπΆπ£π£πππΎπΎπ£π£ πΎπΎπ‘π‘ = πΆπΆπ’π’π‘π‘ 1πΎπΎπ’π’1 + πΆπΆπ’π’π‘π‘ 2πΎπΎπ’π’2 + πΆπΆπ£π£π‘π‘πΎπΎπ£π£ πΎπΎππ = πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 1πΎπΎπ’π’1 + πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 2πΎπΎπ’π’2 + πΆπΆπ£π£πππΎπΎπ£π£ (5.28) where πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 1 = cos πΎπΎππ ,πΆπΆπ£π£ππ = βsin πΎπΎππ ,πΆπΆπ’π’π‘π‘ 1 = cos πππ π sin πΎπΎππ ,πΆπΆπ’π’π‘π‘ 2 = sin Ξ»s ,πΆπΆπ£π£π‘π‘ = cos πππ π cos πΎπΎππ πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 1 = sin πππ π sin πΎπΎππ ,πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 2 = βcos πππ π ,πΆπΆπ£π£ππ = sin πππ π cos πΎπΎππ These coefficients are only functions of tool geometry, and they are constant for a specific experiment. As a result, there are 3 linear equations with three unknowns. In matrix form: οΏ½ πΎπΎππ πΎπΎπ‘π‘ πΎπΎππ οΏ½ = οΏ½πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 1 0 πΆπΆπ£π£πππΆπΆπ’π’π‘π‘ 1 πΆπΆπ’π’π‘π‘ 2 πΆπΆπ£π£π‘π‘ πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 1 πΆπΆπ’π’ππ 2 πΆπΆπ£π£πποΏ½ οΏ½ πΎπΎπ’π’1 πΎπΎπ’π’2 πΎπΎπ£π£ οΏ½ (5.29) Solving these equations in Eq. (5.29) results in πΎπΎπ’π’1, πΎπΎπ’π’2, and πΎπΎπ£π£. It should be noted that: πΎπΎπ’π’ = οΏ½πΎπΎπ’π’12 + πΎπΎπ’π’22 (5.30) ππ = tanβ1 πΎπΎπ’π’2 πΎπΎπ’π’1 (5.31) Consequently, a set of simple experiments with known cutting conditions and tool geometry are sufficient to calculate the cutting coefficients and chip flow angle. Since most of the chip flow models in the literature are based on empirical equations, and the Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 81 theoretical models are difficult to apply and generalize, this method provides a quick way to determine the chip flow angle. During milling, chip thickness varies continuously as tool motion is a trochoidal motion. In order to apply proposed mechanistic identification method, cutting force coefficients can be obtained in terms of the average chip thickness defined as [45]: π΄π΄πποΏ½οΏ½οΏ½ = 1πππ‘π‘π₯π₯ β πππ π π‘π‘ οΏ½ π΄π΄ππ(ππ)πππππππ‘π‘π₯π₯πππ π π‘π‘ (5.32) where πππ π π‘π‘ and πππ‘π‘π₯π₯ are tool entry and exit angles, respectively. Theoretical Approach In the second case, it has been assumed that the cutting coefficients in radial, tan- gential, and axial directions as well as tool geometry are known, but the objective is to calculate the shear parameters (shear stress πππ π , shear angle ππππ , and friction angle π½π½ππ ) only using this set of experiments. There have been two fundamental approaches for the solution of oblique cutting parameters, namely maximum shear stress principle and the minimum energy principle. Although these principles are iterative models, it is possible to obtain an approximate solution using Stablerβs chip flow assumption (ππ = πππ π ). Maximum Shear Stress Principle Maximum shear stress principle states that the resultant cutting force (πΉπΉ) makes an angle amount of (ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ ) with the shear plane, and the angle between the maxi- mum shear stress and the principal stress is 45Β° [57]. So: πΉπΉπ π = πΉπΉ(cos ππππ cos(ππππ + ππππ) cosππππ + sinππππ sinππππ) πΉπΉπ π = πΉπΉ cos 45Β° (5.33) Moreover, another statement of this principle dictates that the projection of the re- sultant force to the shear plane coincides with the shear direction. This results in: πΉπΉ(cos ππππ cos(ππππ + ππππ) sinππππ β sinππππ cosππππ) = 0 (5.34) Eq. (5.33) and Eq. (5.34) are used to derive the following relationships: Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 82 ππππ = sinβ1οΏ½β2 sinπππποΏ½ (5.35) ππππ = cosβ1 οΏ½tanππππtanπππποΏ½ β ππππ (5.36) Figure 5-4 illustrates the oblique cutting mechanics. In order to avoid dividing by zero for orthogonal cases, Eq. (5.36) can be rewritten as: ππππ = cosβ1 οΏ½ 1 β2 cosππππcos ππππ οΏ½ β ππππ (5.37) Using Eq. (5.35), Eq. (5.37), and the tool geometry (πΎπΎππ , πππ π ), new chip flow angle (πππ‘π‘) can be calculated using the velocity relation: πππ‘π‘ = tanβ1 οΏ½tan πππ π cos(ππππ β πΎπΎππ) β cos πΎπΎππ tanππππsinππππ οΏ½ (5.38) In order to calculate the true chip flow angle, following interpolation algorithm is applied by using new and previous chip flow angles: ππ(ππ) = ππ ππ(ππ β 1) + (1 β ππ) πππ‘π‘ (5.39) Using the above equations, true chip flow angle can be calculated iteratively. In this equation, ππ is the convergence parameter. When the iteration is completed, the shear stress can be calculated as the following: πΉπΉ = οΏ½πΉπΉπ’π’2 + πΉπΉπ£π£2 = ππβοΏ½πΎπΎπ’π’2 + πΎπΎπ£π£2 (5.40) πΉπΉπ π = πππ π π΄π΄π π = πππ π οΏ½ ππcos πππ π οΏ½ οΏ½ βsinπππποΏ½ = πΉπΉπππππ π 45Β° (5.41) πππ π = οΏ½πΎπΎπ’π’2 + πΎπΎπ£π£22 cos πππ π sinππππ (5.42) Results and discussions about this approach are given in the following sections. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 83 Minimum Energy Principle In this approach work done by Shamoto and Altintas [11] is used. In their study, re- sultant cutting force is expressed as: πΉπΉ = πππ π ππβ[cos(ππππ + ππππ) cos ππππ cosππππ + sinππππ sinππππ] cos πππ π sinππππ (5.43) And the cutting power (πππ‘π‘) required during cutting can be expressed as: πππ‘π‘ = πΉπΉ(cos ππππ cos ππππ cos πππ π + sinππππ sin πππ π ) ππ (5.44) where ππ is the cutting speed. Non-dimensional cutting power (πππ‘π‘β² ) can be derived by substituting Eq. (5.43) into Eq. (5.44). πππ‘π‘ β² = πππ‘π‘ πππππ π ππβ = cos ππππ tanππππ tan πππ π [cos(ππππ + ππππ) cosππππ + tanππππ sinππππ] sinππππ (5.45) Minimum energy principle states that the cutting power drawn must be minimal for a unique shear angle solution [11]. Therefore: πππππ‘π‘β² ππππππ = 0 πππππ‘π‘ β² ππππππ = 0 (5.46) Using Stablerβs chip flow angle rule and maximum shear stress equations for the initial guess, shear angles (ππππ and ππππ) are iterated to minimize the non-dimensional cutting power πππ‘π‘β² using the following iterative equations: οΏ½ ππππ(ππ) ππππ(ππ)οΏ½ = οΏ½ππππ(ππ β 1)ππππ(ππ β 1)οΏ½ β ππ οΏ½Ξπππ‘π‘β² ΞππππβΞπππ‘π‘β² Ξππππβ οΏ½ (5.47) In this method, convergence depends on the step size ππ and the marginal increase during the perturbation (Ξππππ ,ππ). After the iterations are completed, shear stress can be calculated by the following equations: πΉπΉπ π = πΉπΉ[cos(ππππ + ππππ) cosππππ cosππππ + sinππππ sinππππ] πππ π = οΏ½πΎπΎπ’π’2 + πΎπΎπ£π£2 [cos(ππππ + ππππ) cosππππ cos ππππ + sinππππ sinππππ] cos πππ π sinππππ (5.48) Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 84 Enhancement of the Theoretical Models Stablerβs rule of chip flow is used as the initial guess in most theoretical models. However, since it is possible to obtain true chip flow angle using maximum shear stress and minimum energy principles, an iterative method was adapted to improve the calcula- tion of chip flow angle and cutting coefficients. Block diagram of this enhancement is illustrated in Figure 5-7. Stablerβs rule (ππ = πππ π ) was used as the initial value and cutting coefficients in ππππ coordinate system were calculated by using geometrical transforma- tions. Then using the minimum energy or maximum shear stress principle, new chip flow angle was calculated and the procedure was repeated until the difference between the new and previous chip flow angle is less than the specified tolerance value. Figure 5-7: Block Diagram of the Iterative Method to Enhance the Theoretical Models. By using the proposed method, it is possible to determine the inclination angle πππ π of the tool used to obtain the mechanistically determined cutting, πΎπΎππ , πΎπΎπ‘π‘ , and πΎπΎππ . In order to accomplish this task, following procedure was applied: 1. Cutting coefficients in radial, tangential, and axial directions were trans- formed to friction and normal coefficients πΎπΎπ’π’ and πΎπΎπ£π£ using the geometrical transformation equations described in Chapter 4.3. In order to complete the transformations, an arbitrary value for πππ π was selected. Since πππ π is unknown, this procedure must be repeated for each value of πππ π in a predetermined range. 2. Using the minimum energy principle, shear parameters (πππ π , ππππ , and π½π½ππ ) as well as true chip flow angle ππ were calculated. πΎπΎππ ,πΎπΎπ‘π‘ ,πΎπΎππ Geometrical Transformation πΎπΎπ’π’ ,πΎπΎπ£π£ Max.

Following that, πΎπΎππ ,πΎπΎπ‘π‘ , and πΎπΎππ were calculated back using the orthogonal to oblique transformation using the following equations [5]: πΎπΎππ = πππ π sinππππ cos πππ π sin(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ)οΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ πΎπΎπ‘π‘ = πππ π sinππππ cos(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan πππ π tan ππ sinπ½π½πποΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ πΎπΎππ = πππ π sinππππ cos(π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) tan πππ π β tan ππ sinπ½π½πποΏ½cos2(ππππ + π½π½ππ β πΎπΎππ) + tan2 ππ sin2 π½π½ππ (5.49) 4. Calculated and original values of the cutting coefficients were compared and the errors for each πππ π were calculated using Eq. (5.50). % πΈπΈππππππππ = οΏ½πΎπΎπππππππππ’π’πππππ‘π‘π‘π‘ππ β πΎπΎππππππππππππππππ οΏ½ πΎπΎππππππππππππππππ Γ 100 (5.50) It can be observed that for a unique oblique angle, percentage error for axial cutting coefficient πΎπΎππ is minimal. Mechanistically determined cutting coefficients for two different workpiece mate- rials are used as inputs. Although the tool geometry (rake and helix angles) was known, helix angle (πππ π ) has been assumed to be unknown to check the validity of the proposed method. The first analysis was made on Ti6Al4V workpiece. Results of Budakβs cutting coefficient identification [58] were used. Tool used for the mechanistic calibration has 15Β° rake angle (πΎπΎππ = 15Β°) and 30Β° helix angle (πππ π = 30Β°). In order to apply the model, helix angle is assumed to be unknown and all angles between 0Β° and 40Β° were scanned in the analysis and errors were calculated using the procedure outlined above. Table 5-I presents the cutting coefficients and tool workpiece used in both cases. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 86 Figure 5-8: Results of Helix Angle Predictions for Ti6Al4V.

Workpiece material has been Al7075, and the tool used in mechanistic identifica- tion has been a bull-nose end mill with 5/4β diameter, 0Β° rake angle, and 5Β° helix angle. Cutting coefficients are listed in Table 5-I and error results are presented in Figure 5-9. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 87 Figure 5-9: Results of Helix Angle Predictions for Al7075. It can be observed from Figure 5-8 and Figure 5-9 that πΎπΎππ is very sensitive to the changes in the helix angle and it is possible to accurately determine the helix angle by applying the proposed method. On the other hand, theoretical proof of this method is rather difficult, because chip flow angle also depends on the helix angle and the equations used in minimum energy principle is rather complex and they can be solved only using numerical methods. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 88 Results and Summary Block diagram of the procedures explained in this section is illustrated in Figure 5-10. As a case study, to validate the models discussed in this section, mechanistically determined average cutting coefficients in πΆπΆπ π π΄π΄ coordinate system were transformed to ππππ coordinate system and shear parameters were calculated using both maximum shear stress principle and minimum energy principle. Table 5-II summarizes the results: Table 5-II: Comparison of the Methods for the Solution of Oblique Shear Parameters.

Cutting speed (ππ) was 150 m/min and the width of cut (ππ) was 3.05 mm. Highlighted row is the experimentally measured orthogonal reference data. From Table 5-II, it can be observed that the minimum energy principle gives more accurate results than the maximum shear stress principle, since maximum shear stress principle is more conservative approach. However, minimum energy principle needs more iteration to calculate the shear parameters than the maximum shear stress principle. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 89 Figure 5-10: Theoretical Identification Procedure. In mechanistic modeling, it is possible to determine the cutting coefficients by using a single test. Therefore, it provides an opportunity to observe the effect of chip thickness on the cutting coefficients. On the other hand, theoretical methods use average cutting coefficients, in which one set of coefficients can be obtained by conducting tests with different chip thicknesses. Figure 5-11 demonstrates this argument with SCGP tool. Tool geometry and cutting conditions are listed above. In Figure 5-11, it can be observed that specific cutting coefficients increase exponentially as the chip thickness decreases. This phenomenon is called size effect. Figure 5-12 shows the comparison of chip flow angle of different methods. Stabler rule states that the chip flow angle is equal to the inclination angle πππ π . It can be seen that according to the mechanistic approach, there is also an exponential relationship between chip thickness and chip flow angle, similar to the size effect. π½π½ππ πΎπΎππ πππ π Force Relation (5.35) & (5.36) Velocity Relation (5.38) ππ (5.39) ππππ ,ππππ Max.

Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 91 5.4 Cutting Force Simulations and Validations Proposed insert geometry and mechanics models discussed in previous chapter are combined to simulate cutting forces in turning and milling using different tools. Several different insert geometries are considered for each type of cutting process. 5.4.1 Turning Process Simulations To validate the model in turning, two different cases are selected. First case is or- thogonal cutting with a triangular insert, and the second case is oblique cutting with a square insert. Experimental Setup Validation experiments for turning process have been performed on Hardinge Su- perslant lathe. The workpiece material was AISI Steel 1045 bar with 255HB hardness. The diameter of the workpiece was 38.1 mm. Kistler three component dynamometer (Model 9121) and charge amplifier were used to measure the cutting forces. The dyna- mometer was mounted on the turret as shown in Figure 5-13. Displaying and recording of the measured data were performed with data acquisi- tion software, MalDAQ module of CutPro 8.0. Figure 5-14 shows a sample output screen of MalDAQ. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 92 Figure 5-13: Workpiece and 3- Component Dynamometer Fixed to Turret for Cutting Tests. Figure 5-14: Sample Output Screen in CutPro 8.0 for Cutting Forces. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 93 Orthogonal Cutting Tests A carbide triangular insert (TPG322) from Kennametal and a shank style tool holder (CTGP) with 5Β° normal rake angle (πΎπΎππ ), 75Β° cutting edge angle (π π ππ ) and 0Β° inclination angle (πππ π ) was used in orthogonal cutting tests. The influence of nose radius was avoided by using a tube with a wall thickness of 3.05 mm. Orthogonal cutting parameters were used to calculate cutting coefficients in friction and normal directions at each selected point on the cutting edge. The tests were performed at different cutting speeds and feed rates. Cutting conditions for orthogonal cutting validation experiments are summarized in Table 5-III. As the cutting speed changes along the cutting edge, cutting coefficients become different at each differential disk on the tool. Therefore, at each differential disk, cutting coefficients πΎπΎπ’π’ and πΎπΎπ£π£ are calculated by using the following equations: ππππ = π‘π‘(0.6123 ββ0.6988) π½π½ππ = π‘π‘(β0.1515 ββ0.5453) πππ π = π‘π‘0.0417 ββ0.0079 ππ+6.2938 (5.51) The model is validated by comparing the predicted forces against new experimental results as shown in Simulated and experimental forces are plotted versus chip thickness in Figure 5-15 and Figure 5-16.

Moreover, using the equations presented in Section 4.4, physical angles along the cutting edge were calculated. Finally, orthogonal parameters shown in (5.51) were used to calculate cutting coefficients πΎπΎπ’π’ and πΎπΎπ£π£. Cutting forces were calculated using the rake face based force model which is described in Section 5.2. Simulated and experimental cutting forces for rhombic insert are shown in Figure 5-19 and Figure 5-20. The simulated forces showed good agreement with the experimental forces. Chapter 5.

Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 100 Square (ISO Style S) Insert: Next tool used to validate the cutting force model in turning was a Sandvik DSBNL 2020K 12 holder with 75Β° cutting edge angle, -6Β° rake and inclination angle and Sandvik SNMA 12 04 08 insert with 0.8 mm corner radius. Geometry inputs and experiment conditions are listed in Table 5-V. Tool geometry is illustrated in Figure 5-21. Similar to rhombic insert 2 sets of experiments were con- ducted with 2 mm and 4 mm widths of cut. Using the same procedure described in the previous example, position of each se- lected point is calculated with the associated physical angles. Orthogonal cutting parameters shown in Eq. (5.51) and same cutting force model used to simulate the cutting forces. Although the validations are not as accurate as orthogonal cutting, results are satisfactory. The main reason behind the error is that cutting coefficients were determined using a positive rake tool, however the tools used in oblique cutting have negative rake angles. Following figures can be seen to compare the simulations and measured forces. Table 5-V: Tool Geometry and Cutting Conditions for Square Insert.

Various inserted milling tools were used from Sandvik Coromant. The workpiece material was aluminum blocks (Al7050-T451) with dimensions of 160x100x100 mm. Kistler three component dynamometer (Model 9257B) and a charge amplifier was used to measure the cutting forces. The dynamometer was mounted on the machine table using fixtures and the aluminum block was attached to the dynamometer as seen in Figure 5-24. Similarly, displaying and recording the measured data was performed with data ac- quisition software MalDAQ module of CutPro 9.0. The complete actual testing environment is illustrated in Figure 5-25. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 103 Various tests were performed for validation of the proposed force model. Differen- tial cutting edge disk height and the differential rotation angle in simulations were selected to be 0.01 mm and 4Β° respectively which adequately resembled the actual cutting conditions for the mathematical cutting force model. The applied conditions and the results of the performed milling tests are described throughout this section. The cutting coefficients were described as functions of rake angle, cutting speed and chip thickness. As a result, for each differential cutting edge element, corresponding orthogonal parameter were calculated and converted to the cutting coefficients in normal and friction directions individually. The list of shear parameters used in the mathemati- cal model is given as: ππππ = 19.4004 + 42.0174 β + 0.02 ππ + 0.3842 πΎπΎππ πππ π = 266.8047 + 174.1289 β β 0.0437 ππ + 0.8961 πΎπΎππ π½π½ππ = 25.8772 β 1.2837 β β 0.0075 ππ + 0.1818 πΎπΎππ (5.59) Figure 5-24: Workpiece and 3-Component Dynamometer Fixed to Machine Table for Cutting Tests.

Validations of cutting forces were performed for half immersion up milling and full immersion slot cutting tests. In simulations, orthogonal parameters shown in Eq. (5.59) are used. The tests were conducted for different feed rates and spindle speeds. Cutting conditions for validation tests are summarized also in Figure 5-26. Simulated and experimental cutting forces are plotted versus time for two revolution of the tool in Figure 5-28 and Figure 5-29 for 4 mm axial depth of cut. Chapter 5. Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 107 Although there was a forced vibration during cutting tests due to the vibration of the dynamometer, simulated cutting force patterns and their magnitudes showed very good agreement with the measurements. The tool was two fluted end mill, as a result two peaks can be observed in a single rotation of the tool. For consistency, cutting force of two rotations (720Β°) of the tool is presented for each width of cut. Figure 5-28: Measured and Predicted Forces for Al7050 Half Immersion Up-Milling. Chapter 5.

Cutter body has 10Β° axial rake angle and 5Β° radial rake angle. For the sake of simplicity, control points and parametric equations are not shown in this insert; hence cutting edges are very similar to the shoulder end mill. Only difference between two inserts is that bull nose insert has a bigger corner radius. One slot milling and one half immersion up-milling tests were performed with different spindle speeds, feed rates, and depth of cuts. Cutting conditions are listed in Figure 5-30. Comparison of the measured and calculated cutting forces can be seen Figure 5-31 and Figure 5-32. It can be observed from the figures that the simulations and the experimental values are in good agreement; this proves that the cutting force model proposed in this chapter is valid not only for straight but also for round cutting edges.

Generalized Mechanics of Metal Cutting 112 Ball-End Mill with a Circular Insert In the final case of milling validation tests, a ball end mill was selected with a circu- lar (round) insert. Cutter body was Sandvik RF216F-20A20S-038, a 20 mm ball-end mill cutter. Unlike the other cutters presented in this section, this cutter has some unique properties. First of all, although it is a two fluted cutter, it has only one flat insert that cuts with both sides. Therefore, it does not have any axial or radial rake. The insert used with this cutter was Sandvik R216F-20 50E-L P10A circular insert with diameter of 20 mm.

Similar to the previous milling examples, one half immersion and one full immersion slot milling tests were conducted with different spindle speeds and feed rates. Cutter geometry and tests conditions can be seen in Figure 5-33. Figure 5-35 and Figure 5-36 show the comparison of simulated values and experi- mental values. It can be noted that the measured and predicted cutting forces are found to be in good agreement. Chapter 5.

Mechanics model calculates the cutting forces on the rake face along the normal and friction directions. By doing so, it is possible to model any type of cutting process and tool geometry. This model also allows using any type of ISO insert as well as any insert with a custom shape. Proposed cutting force model is verified both in turning and milling operations using various tool geometries and cutting conditions. Chapter 6. Conclusions 116 6. Conclusions The aim of this thesis has been to develop a generalized mathematical modeling of metal cutting mechanics which allows prediction of cutting forces for a variety of machining operations. The cutting forces are used to analyze torque, power and stiffness requirements from a machine tool. They are also primary variables in simulating and optimizing machining operations in virtual environment. The proposed generalized model has three fundamental steps: 1) generalized geome- tric model of cutting tool based on ISO standards; 2) kinematic transformation of force vectors in machining systems; 3) and modeling of two principal cutting forces acting on the rake face of the tool. The two principal forces, namely the friction and normal forces on the rake face, are transformed to both cutting tool and machine tool coordinate systems. The generalized transformations allow the use of same material properties and rake face forces in predicting the loads in a variety of machining processes such as drilling, turning, boring, milling and other operations conducted with defined cutting edges. The main contributions of the thesis can be summarized as follows: β’ Instead of developing dedicated and tool geometry and cutting operation specific cutting force models as reported in the literature, an integrated geo- metric-mechanic and kinematic model of the process is presented. The model can be used to predict forces in various cutting operations with gener- al tool geometry. β’ A generalized geometric model of inserts and their placement on the tools have been developed using ISO standards for cutting tool geometry. The cut- ting edge coordinates, where the force is generated, are analytically evaluated from the common geometric model. The model allows the use of multiple cutting edges mounted on the cutter body. The required normal and oblique angles, which are needed in mechanics models, are evaluated analyt- ically using general geometric model. Chapter 6. Conclusions 117 β’ The normal and friction forces on the rake face are used as the principal cut- ting forces. They are predicted either from orthogonal parameters (shear stress, shear angle and average friction coefficient) or empirical cutting force coefficients calibrated from mechanistic experiments. The principal cutting forces are transformed to both stationary and rotating tool coordinates de- pending on machining operations. β’ Generalized coordinate transformation models are developed for both statio- nary and rotating tools. The cutting forces acting on the rake face are transformed to feed, normal and axial directions of the machine tool motion. β’ The proposed general mechanics and geometric models are experimentally validated in turning and milling experiments with inserts having complex geometries. The generalized mechanics model allow prediction of cutting forces, torque and power in a number of cutting operations conducted with tools having arbitrary geome- tries. The proposed model improves the computational efficiency and accuracy in simulating process physics and optimizing the operations in virtual machining of parts. The most important limitation to the generalized cutting force model is the accuracy of the material model. Since the physical angles and cutting conditions significantly change along the cutting edge, material model (shear parameters or mechanistically determined cutting coefficients) should cover these changes. Otherwise, cutting coeffi- cients will be extrapolated and simulated cutting forces will be inaccurate. This situation is already observed in the cutting force validations in ππ direction. The proposed model can be extended to drilling, boring, broaching, reaming and gear shaping in the future research. While boring, drilling and reaming require mainly extending the parametric definition of tool motion, the gear shaping and broaching require major effort in modeling the complex kinematics and tool geometries involved. 118 Bibliography [1] S.

Description | Metal cutting is the most commonly used manufacturing process for producing parts with final dimensions. The aim of engineering science is to model the physics of the process which allows the simulation of part machining operations ahead of costly trials. There is a need to develop generalized models of cutting process which is applicable to various tool geometries and cutting processes in order to simulate machining of industrial parts in virtual environment. This thesis presents a generalized mathematical model which can be used to predict turning, drilling, boring and milling processes. The tool geometry is adopted from ISO 13399 standards. The rake face of the tool is mathematically modeled from ISO13399 model by considering tool geometry, engagement with the workpiece, feed and speed directions of cutting motion. Various geometric features of the tool, such as chamfer, nose radius, and cutting edge angles, are considered in developing coordinate transformation models between the machine motion and tool coordinate systems. The cutting forces on the rake face are defined in the direction of chip flow and per-pendicular to the rake face. The cutting force coefficients in the two directions are either identified mechanistically by conducting experiments specific to the tool geometry, or using orthogonal to oblique transformation of shear angle, average friction angle and shear stress. The friction and normal forces on the rake face are transformed to both stationary and rotating tool coordinate systems defined on the machine tool. |
