Investigations of Process Damping Forces in Metal Cutting
<|reference_start|>Investigations of Process Damping Forces in Metal Cutting: Using finite element software developed for metal cutting by Third Wave Systems we investigate the forces involved in chatter, a self-sustained oscillation of the cutting tool. The phenomena is decomposed into a vibrating tool cutting a flat surface work piece, and motionless tool cutting a work piece with a wavy surface. While cutting the wavy surface, the shearplane was seen to oscillate in advance of the oscillation of the depth of cut, as were the cutting, thrust, and shear plane forces. The vibrating tool was used to investigate process damping through the interaction of the relief face of the tool and the workpiece. Crushing forces are isolated and compared to the contact length between the tool and workpiece. We found that the wavelength dependence of the forces depended on the relative size of the wavelength to the length of the relief face of the tool. The results indicate that the damping force from crushing will be proportional to the cutting speed for short tools, and inversely proportional for long tools.<|reference_end|>
