A survey of models, analysis tools and compensation methods for the control of machines with friction

Determination of the maximum temperature and temperature distribution along the rake face of the cutting tool is of particular importance because of its controlling influence on tool life, as well as, the quality of the machined part. Numerous attempts have been made to approach the problem with different methods including experimental, analytical and numerical analysis. Although considerable research effort has been made on the thermal problem in metal cutting, there is hardly a consensus on the basics principles. The unique tribological contact phenomenon, which occur in metal cutting is highly localized and non-linear, and occurs at high temperatures, high pressures and high strains. This has made it extremely difficult to predict in a precise manner or even assess the performance of various models developed for modelling the machining process. Accurate and repeatable heat and temperature prediction remains challenging due to the complexity of the contact phenomena in the cutting process. In this paper, previous research on heat generation and heat dissipation in the orthogonal machining process is critically reviewed. In addition, temperature measurement techniques applied in metal cutting are briefly reviewed. The emphasis is on the comparability of test results, as well as, the relevance of temperature measurement method to high speed cutting. New temperature measurement results obtained by a thermal imaging camera in high speed cutting of high strength alloys are also presented. Finally, the latest work on estimation of heat generation, heat partition and temperature distribution in metal machining is reviewed. This includes an exploration of the different simplifying assumptions related to the geometry of the process components, material properties, boundary conditions and heat partition. The paper then proposes some modelling requirements for computer simulation of high speed machining processes.

Heat generation and temperature prediction in metal cutting: A review and implications for high speed machining

On The Measurement of Temperature in Material Removal Processes

This paper presents a review of the state-of-the-art in sensors and signal processing methodologies used for tool condition monitoring (TCM) systems in industrial machining applications. The paper focuses on the technologies used in monitoring conventional cutting operations, including drilling, turning, end milling and face milling, and presents important findings related to each of these fields. Unlike existing reviews, which categorize results according to the methodology used, this paper presents results organized according to the type of machining operation carried out. By extensively reviewing and categorizing over one hundred important papers and articles, this paper is able to identify and comment on trends in TCM research, and to identify potential weaknesses in certain areas. The paper concludes with a list of recommendations for future research based on the trends and successful results observed, thus facilitating the cross-fertilization of ideas and techniques within the field of TCM research.

State-of-the-art methods and results in tool condition monitoring: a review

Analytical prediction of cutting tool wear

Stress distribution along a tool rake face were measured directly in the orthogonal machining of various metals. The method of measurement was based on the use of a composite tool which was divided into two parts parallel to a cutting edge in order to measure separately the force acting on one section of the tool. The stress distributions under actual cutting conditions were revealed, and the relationship between the nature of stress distribution and the mechanical properties of work material was clarified. It was ascertained that the nature of stress distribution was closely connected with the strain hardening index of work material and the frictional coefficient between tool and material.
