Finite Element Modeling of Burr Formation in Metal Cutting

In order to advance understanding of the burr formation process, a series of finite element models are introduced. First, a finite element model of the burr formation of two-dimensional orthogonal cutting is introduced and validated …

A Study on Tribology in Minimal Quantity Lubrication Cutting

Despite the fact that minimal quantity lubrication (MQL) machining produces almost similar cutting performance to conventional flood supply machining while using much less metal working fluid (MWF), it has not been fully utilized in industry …

Variation in Machinability of Single Crystal Materials in Micromachining

For practical application of micromechanical machining, four levels of process realization are required; fundamental understanding of process physics, development of microplanning (processing parameter optimization), macroplanning (tool path planning), and design optimization. This study surveyed the …

Recent Advances in Mechanical Micromachining

This paper reviews some of the main drivers, developments and future requirements in the field of micromanufacturing as related to the machining process from the perspective of the recent research and development literature. For the …

Surface Finishes from Turning and Facing with Round Nosed Tools

The range of surface roughnesses, and particularly the minimum roughnesses, achievable mainly with cemented carbide but also with single crystal diamond round nosed turning and facing inserts, has been experimentally studied, machining aluminium on engineering …
