Physical Simulation of the Cutting Process induced by Tool Geometric Angle and Cutting Parameters

The tool geometric angle and cutting parameters have a significant influence on the titanium alloy milling process by the usage of solid carbide end mills. The physical simulation method was applied to predict the cutting force and temperature by using two comparative sets of simulation data such as the different tool gemetric angle as tool rake angle, helix angle and different cutting parameters such as spindle speed, axial depth of cut, radial depth of cut. Thus are the commonly used methods to simulate and predict the cutting process before the actual production, which can reduce product cost and time.
