Abstract
Most of the theoretical models for surface roughness in finish turning assume that the work piece surface profile is formed by the rounded tip of the tool nose. The effect of the straight flank section in the tool nose region on the surface roughness is usually neglected. In this work, the straight flank section is taken into account in order to predict the arithmetic average roughness R a and root-mean-square roughness R q more accurately. The analytical models for R a and R q are developed as a function of three parameters, namely feed rate, nose radius, and wedge angle. These models were verified using digital simulation method. The surface roughness determined using the new three-parameter models were compared with the existing two-parameter models that consider only the feed rate and nose radius. Decreasing wedge angle was found to lower the surface roughness significantly. An experiment was conducted to test the validity of the three-parameter model at different feed rates in real machining operation. The experimental results agreed more closely with the proposed three-parameter models compared to the two-parameter models.
