Orthogonal cutting forces and power numerical
Short answer
Chip thickness ratio r = 0.333 yields shear angle φ = 19.2° via tan φ = r cos α/(1 - r sin α). Forces: friction 599 N, normal 808 N, coefficient 0.74. Shear force 702 N, shear stress 308 MPa. Cutting power 1.35 kW, specific energy 1.2 J/mm³.
In an orthogonal cutting test, the uncut chip thickness is 0.25 mm, the chip thickness is 0.75 mm, the width of cut is 3 mm and the rake angle is 10 degree. The cutting force is 900 N and the thrust force is 450 N at a cutting speed of 90 m/min. Calculate the shear angle, friction force, normal force on the tool face, coefficient of friction, shear force, shear stress, cutting power and the specific cutting energy.
