Abstract

One of the effective strategies to improve dry machining processes is the implementation of micro-textured cutting tools. Micro-textures decrease the chip-tool contact length and thus reduce friction and heat which lead to better surface quality and longer tool life. However, micro-cutting of the bottom side of the chip, known as derivative cutting, is an issue when using textured tools. Derivative cutting increases the cutting forces, heat, and ultimately tool wear. This paper investigates the effect of micro-texture design parameters on the occurrence of derivative cutting and offers design recommendations when preparing micro-grooves to eliminate/reduce the severity of this phenomenon.
