Abstract
This work investigated the effects of different workpiece materials on chip formation and associated mechanisms in microcutting. The wavelet transformation technique was used to decompose acoustic emission (AE) signals generated from orthogonal micromilling of different workpiece materials. This allowed studying energy levels corresponding to deformation mechanisms. Resulting chip forms were characterised. The results indicated that the computed energies of decomposed frequency bands can be positivity correlated with chip morphology. The work provides significant and new knowledge on the utility and importance of AE signals in characterising chip formation in micromachining. Understanding chip formation mechanisms is important in managing the size effect in micromachining.
