An orthogonal cutting operation is being conducted with the
following parameters: width of cut
=1mm; depth of cut = 0.1mm; shear stress =120 MPa; and
coefficient of friction, μ=0.9.
a) Generate a smooth plot of both cutting (Fc) and thrust (Ft)
forces versus the rake
angle (α). The plot should be from 0 to 60°. Equation 8.20 can
be used to define
the relationship between different angles.
b) Using a different lubricant, the coefficient of friction
has changed to 0.3. Generate
another plot with the new value and comment on the
results.
