Abstract

A chamfered cutting edge, which is commonly shaped in order to strengthen an edge of a cutting tool consisting of brittle material, easily causes an enhanced adhesion and a burr formation due to high compressive stress anterior to the edge. These problems lead to detachment of tool material and notch wear at depth-of-cut line, which would result in unexpected tool fracture. On the other hand, the edge shape promotes formation of a built-up edge (BUE) as a dead metal and can maintain it stably. Actually, the formed BUE is plastically extruded along to the chamfered edge and can prevent formation of the notch wear. In this study, basic experiments to investigate effects of chamfered tool edge preparation, such as chamfer angle and chamfered land texture on the BUE behavior were conducted. The results suggested that the plastic flow in the BUE extrusion can suppress the adhesion if the extrusion is arisen. Additionally, analytical modeling of cutting with chamfered tool was presented. The BUE shape could be predicted by considering principle of least work consisting of friction and plastic deformation work required to be extruded it.
