This paper presents the results of an investigation of the frictional effect on cutting forces in metal cutting. What is called the coefficient of friction especially in the case of metal cutting is actually the apparent coefficient of friction.
The real coefficient of friction is nearly constant, or independent of the rake angle of a tool at least. And it depends on the properties of the material, the condition of the tool surface, and the temperature of the contact surface, etc.
The theory of these phenomena is discussed in term of basic variables in chip formation. The fundamentals of chip formation are largely affected by the accuracy in measurement of cutting force under normal cutting conditions.
The primary requirement for the dynamometer is sufficient stiffness, and the second is high sensibility.
For this purpose, the authors made a three-dimentional tool dynamometer with a tubular tool holder. For measurement of interface temperature, a compensating circuit Is used to minimize the effect of parasitic electro motive force, induced by use of a lead dissimilar in composition to the carbide tip.
These results are shown graphically in Fig.5-10, then the considerations or discussions on the friction in metal cutting.
From these analyses, it can be concluded that the apparent coefficient of friction (μ) is defined by the real coefficient of friction (μ
0) and a function of the rake angle (α), as shown Eq. (5), (6).
