Abstract: The flank in multi-edge profiled cutters must be designed so that the profile geometry and the correct relief angle at every point of the cutting edge are preserved on repeated radial regrinding. ...

Abstract: A solution is presented for the temperature field in the chip under experimental edge conditions in the contact zone and at the upper chip face. The pattern of the temperature gradient in ...

Abstract: The existence of cutting rate-tool life (R-T ) characteristic functions for material removal operations is introduced in this paper. This new concept enables a comprehensive development of a ...

Abstract: The experimental verification, interpretations, and applications of the concept of cutting rate-tool life (R-T) characteristic functions are presented in this paper. Two statistically designed ...

Abstract: The surface topography of a coated abrasive was measured by a special designed profilometer with an oscillating stylus, revealing very detailed geometric features of the peaks. The criterion for ...
