Material Removal Processes


Introduction

It is shaping operations, it remove material


from a starting workpart so the remaining
part has the desired geometry
Divided into three main groups:
1) Machining material removal by a sharp
cutting tool, e.g., turning, milling, drilling
2) Abrasive processes material removal
by hard, abrasive particles, e.g., grinding
3) Nontraditional processes - various
energy forms other than sharp cutting tool
to remove material

BDA 3052 Manufacturing


Technology

Why Machining is Important

Variety of work materials can be machined


Most frequently used to cut metals
Variety of part shapes and special
geometric features possible, such as:
Screw threads
Accurate round holes
Very straight edges and surfaces
Good dimensional accuracy and surface
finish

BDA 3052 Manufacturing


Technology

Disadvantages with Machining

Wasteful of material
Chips generated in machining are wasted
material, at least in the unit operation
Time consuming
A machining operation generally takes
more time to shape a given part than
alternative shaping processes, such as
casting, powder metallurgy, or forming

BDA 3052 Manufacturing


Technology

Machining in Manufacturing Sequence

Generally performed after other


manufacturing processes, such as casting,
forging, and bar drawing
Other processes create the general
shape of the starting workpart
Machining provides the final shape,
dimensions, finish, and special geometric
details that other processes cannot
create

Technology

Assumptions in orthogonal cutting


(Merchant theory)

01.The tool is perfectly sharp and no contact along clearance face.


02. The shear surface is a plane extending upward from the
cutting edge.
03.The cutting edge is a straight line, extending perpendicular to
the direction of motion and generates a plane surface as the work
moves past it.
04.The chip does not flow to either side.
05.The depth of cut is constant.
06.Width of the tool is greater than the work piece.
07.The work moves relative to the tool with uniform velocity.
08.A continuous chip is produced with no built up edge.
BDA 3052 Manufacturing
Technology

Assumptions in orthogonal cutting


(Merchant theory)

09. Chip is assume to shear continuously


across plane AB on which the shear stress
reaches the value of shear flow stress.
10.Width of chip is remains equal to the width
of the work piece. i.e. Plane strain conditions
exist.

BDA 3052 Manufacturing


Technology

Difference between orthogonal and


oblique cutting
Orthogonal cutting

Oblique cutting

01.The cutting edge of the tool is perpendicular to the


direction of the tool travel.

The cutting edge is inclined at angle with the normal


direction of the tool travel.

02. The cutting edge clears the width of the work piece
on either ends.

The cutting edge may or may not clear the width of the
workpiece.

03. The chip flows over the tool. The chip coils in tight.

The chip flows on the tool face making an angle with


the normal cutting edge. The chip flows side ways in a
long curl.

04. Only two components of the cutting force acting on


the tool.

Three components of the forces acting on the tool.

05.Maximum chip thickness occurs at the middle.

Maximum chip thickness may not occur at middle.

06. For the given feed rate and DOC, the force which
act or shears the metal acts on a smaller area and
therefore, the heat developed per unit area due to
friction along the tool work interface is less and the tool
life is less.

It acts on larger area and thus tool life is more.

Machining

Cutting action involves shear deformation of


work material to form a chip
As chip is removed, new surface is exposed

Effect of Higher Shear Plane Angle

Higher shear plane angle means smaller


shear plane which means lower shear force,
cutting forces, power, and temperature

Effect of shear plane angle : (a) higher with a resulting lower shear
plane area; (b) smaller with a corresponding larger shear plane
area. Note that the rake angle is larger in (a), which tends to increase

Machining
A material removal process in which a sharp
cutting tool is used to mechanically cut away
material so that the desired part geometry
remains
Most common application: to shape metal parts
Most versatile of all manufacturing processes in
its capability to produce a diversity of part
geometries and geometric features with high
precision and accuracy
Casting can also produce a variety of shapes,
but it lacks the precision and accuracy of
machining

Classification of Machined Parts

Rotational - cylindrical or disklike shape


Nonrotational (also called prismatic) blocklike or platelike

Machined parts are classified as: (a) rotational, or (b) nonrotational,


shown here by block and flat parts.

Machining Operations and Part


Geometry
Each machining operation produces a
characteristic part geometry due to
two factors:
1. Relative motions between tool and
workpart

Generating part geometry


determined by feed trajectory of
cutting tool
2. Shape of the cutting tool

Forming part geometry is created


by the shape of the cutting tool

Generating Shape

turning, (c) contour turning, (d) plain milling, (e) profile milling.

Forming to Create Shape

Forming to create shape: (a) form turning, (b) drilling, and (c)
broaching.

Forming and Generating

Combination of forming and generating to create shape: (a)


thread cutting on a lathe, and (b) slot milling.

from a rotating workpiece to generate a
cylinder
Performed on a machine tool called a lathe

Facing

Tool is fed
radially inward

Contour Turning

Instead of feeding
tool parallel to axis of
rotation, tool follows a
contour that is other
than straight, thus
creating a contoured
shape

Chamfering

Cutting edge cuts an angle on the corner


of the cylinder, forming a "chamfer"

Cutoff

Tool is fed radially into rotating work at


some location to cut off end of part

Cutoff

Tool is fed radially into rotating work at


some location to cut off end of part

Threading

Pointed form tool is fed linearly across surface


of rotating workpart parallel to axis of rotation
at a large feed rate, thus creating threads

Cutting Conditions in Turning - 1

The rotational speed in turning related to the desired


cutting
speed at the surface of the cylindrical workpiece by
the
equation:

N
D

N = rotational speed, rev/min; = cutting speed,


m/min,
And Do = original diameter of the part, m.

Cutting Conditions in Turning - 2

The change in diameter is determined by the depth


of cut,
d:

Do Df = 2d
Do = original diameter, mm; Df = final diameter,
mm
d = depth of cut

Cutting Conditions in Turning - 3

The feed in turning is generally expressed in


mm/rev. This
feed can be converted to linear travel rate in
mm/min by the
formula:

fr = Nf
fr = feed rate, mm/min; f = feed mm/rev

Cutting Conditions in Turning - 4

The time to machine from one end of a cylindrical


workpart
to the other is given by:

Tm = L/fr
Tm = time of actual machining, minutes; and L =
length of
the cylindrical workpart, mm

Cutting Conditions in Turning - 5

The volumetric rate of material removal rate can be


most
conveniently determined by the following equation:

MRR = vfd
MRR = material removal rate, mm3/min, f = feed,
mm

Milling
Machining operation in which work is fed past
a rotating tool with multiple cutting edges
Axis of tool rotation is perpendicular to
feed
Creates a planar surface
Other geometries possible either by
cutter path or shape
Other factors and terms:
Interrupted cutting operation
Cutting tool called a milling cutter,
cutting edges called "teeth"
Machine tool called a milling machine

Peripheral Milling vs. Face Milling

Peripheral milling
Cutter axis parallel to surface being
machined
Cutting edges on outside periphery of
cutter
Face milling
Cutter axis perpendicular to surface

Cutting edges on both the end and
outside periphery of the cutter

METHODS OF MILLING-1
1) Up milling is also referred to as conventional
milling. The direction of the cutter rotation
opposes the feed motion. For example, if the
cutter rotates clockwise , the workpiece is fed
to the right in up milling.

METHODS OF MILLING-2
2) Down milling is also referred to as climb
milling. The direction of cutter rotation is
same as the feed motion. For example, if the
cutter rotates counterclockwise , the
workpiece is fed to the right in down milling

Slab Milling

Basic form of peripheral milling in


which the cutter width extends beyond
the workpiece on both sides

Slotting

Width of cutter is less than workpiece width,


creating a slot in the work

Conventional Face Milling


Cutter overhangs
work on both sides

Profile Milling
Form of end milling
in which the
outside periphery
of a flat part is cut

Pocket Milling

shallow
pockets into
flat parts

Surface Contouring

Ballnose cutter
fed back and forth
across work along
a curvilinear path
at close intervals
to create a three
dimensional
surface form

End Milling

Cutter diameter
is less than work
width, so a slot

Fracture failure
Cutting force becomes excessive and/or

Visual inspection of flank wear (or crater
wear) by the machine operator
Fingernail test across cutting edge
Changes in sound emitted from
operation
Chips become ribbon-like, stringy, and
difficult to dispose of
Degradation of surface finish
Increased power
Workpiece count
Cumulative cutting time

Toughness to avoid fracture failure
Hot hardness ability to retain hardness
at high temperatures
Wear resistance hardness is the most
important property to resist abrasive
wear
