An orthogonal cutting operation is being carried out under the following conditions: Depth of cut = 0.1 mm, width of cut = 5 mm, chip thickness = 0.2 mm, cutting speed = 2 m/s , rake angle = 10° , cutting force = 500 N and thrust force = 200 N. Calculate:
a) The cutting power (total power)
b) The shear angle.
c) The resultant force.
d) The friction angle (β).
e) The shear force.
f) The percentage of the total energy that is dissipated in the shear plane during cutting.
