Feed

Normal force to friction N

Force perpendicular to the friction force

Friction Force F

Frictional force resisting the flow of the chip along the rake face of the tool

Which two of the following manufacturing processes are classified as material removal processes? Select all that apply.

Machining and grinding

Variety of part shapes and geometric features

Machining can be used to create any regular geometries, such as flat planes, round holes, and cylinders. By introducing variations in tool shapes and tool paths, irregular geometries can be created, such as screw threads and gear teeth. By combining several machining operations in sequence, shapes of almost unlimited complexity and variety can be produced.

Dimensional accuracy

Machining can produce dimensions to very close tolerances. Some machining processes can achieve tolerances of +- .025mm, much more accurate than other practices

Wasteful of material

Machining is inherently wasteful. The chips generated in a machining operation are wasted material. Although these chips can usually be recycled, they represent waste in a unit operation

Drilling

Machining operation in which a drill bit rotating relative to the work part is fed into the work along the axis of rotation to create a round hole

Milling

Machining operation in which a work part is fed past a rotating tool with multiple cutting edges to generate a plane or straight surface

Nontraditional processes

Material removal processes that use lasers, electron beams, chemical erosion, electric discharges, and electrochemical energy to remove material rather than a sharp cutting tool or abrasive particles

The cutting force and thrust force in an orthogonal cutting operation are best described as which one of the following?

Perpendicular to each other.

Abrasive processes

Processes that mechanically remove material by the action of hard, abrasive particles

The mechanism of chip formation in machining is best described by which one of the following?

Shear deformation

Orthogonal

Simplified, two-dimensional model of machining that neglects many of the geometric complexities, yet describes the mechanics of the process quite well

Among the forces acting on the chip during orthogonal cutting, the friction force is best described as which one of the following?

The frictional force resisting the flow of the chip along the rake face of the tool.

Serrated chip

These chips are semi-continuous in the sense that they possess a saw-tooth appearance that is produced by a cyclical chip formation of alternating high shear strain followed by low shear strain. This fourth type of chip is most closely associated with certain difficult-to-machine metals such as titanium alloys, nickel-base superalloys, and austenitic stainless steels when they are machined at higher cutting speeds. However, the phenomenon is also found with more common work metals (e.g., steels) when they are cut at high speeds

Multiple-cutting-edge tools

Tools that have more than one cutting edge and usually achieve their motion relative to the work part by rotating

A single-point cutting tool is used for which one of the following operations?

Turning

Variety of work materials

Virtually all solid metals can be machined. Plastics and plastic composites can also be cut by machining. Ceramics pose difficulties because of their high hardness and brittleness

Continuous chip

When ductile work materials are cut at high speeds and small feeds and depths, long continuous chips are formed. A good surface finish typically results when this chip type is formed. A sharp cutting edge on the tool and low tool-chip friction encourage the formation of continuous chips. Long, continuous chips (as in turning) can cause problems with regard to chip disposal and/or tangling about the tool. To solve these problems, turning tools are often equipped with chip breakers

Continuous chip with built up edge

When machining ductile materials at low-to-medium cutting speeds, friction between tool and chip tends to cause portions of the work material to adhere to the rake face of the tool near the cutting edge. This formation is called a built-up edge (BUE). The formation of a BUE is cyclical; it forms and grows, then becomes unstable and breaks off. Much of the detached BUE is carried away with the chip, sometimes taking portions of the tool rake face with it, which reduces the life of the cutting tool. Portions of the detached BUE that are not carried off with the chip become imbedded in the newly created work surface, causing the surface to become rough.

Discontinuous chip

When relatively brittle materials (e.g., cast irons) are machined at low cutting speeds, the chips tend to form into separate segments (they are sometimes loosely attached). This tends to impart an irregular texture to the machined surface. High tool-chip friction and large feed and depth of cut promote the formation of this chip type.

Roughing operations are performed at

high feeds and depths. Feeds of .4-.1.25 mm/rev and depths of 2.5-20mm

A cutting tool is

made of harder material than the work material and has one or more sharp cutting edges

Machining is most frequently applied to:

metals

In production machining

one or more roughing cuts are usually performed on the work, followed by one or two finishing cuts
