Abstract
The Oxley machining theory which allows for the high strain-rate/high temperature flow stress and thermal properties of the work material is described. It is shown how the theory that was originally developed for the orthogonal process and later extended to oblique machining, can be used to predict cutting forces, temperatures and subsequently built-up edge formation conditions, tool life and cutting edge deformation conditions. It is also shown how the theory can be applied to obtain predictions in machining with restricted contact tools and in intermittent cutting processes, and to obtain work material properties using machining test results. Finally, some consideration is given to the future directions of machining research at UNSW. The Oxley Model can be used for predicting the performance parameters for different machining processes by taking into account the fundamentals of the chip formation process.
