Preliminary Study: The Effect of Tool Engagement and Cutting Speed on Cutting Temperature during Contour Tool Path Strategy

Article Preview

Abstract:

In pocketing operation for mold and die, the variation of tool engagement angle causes variation in the cutting force and also cutting temperature. The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of tool engagement on cutting temperature when using the contour in tool path strategy for different cutting speeds. Cutting speeds of 150, 200 and 250m/min, feedrate from 0.05, 0.1, 0.15 mm/tooth and depths of cut of 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2 mm were applied for the cutting process. The result shows that by increasing cutting speed, the cutting temperature would rise. Varying the tool engagement also varied the cutting temperature. This can be seen clearly when the tool makes a 90o turn and along the corner region. Along the corner, the engagement angle varies accordingly with the radial depth of cut.
