A geometrical characteristic such as length, diameter, angle, center distance, etc.
1.1.2 Size:
Size is the designation of magnitude (when a value is assigned to a dimension, it is referred to
as the size of the dimension.)
1.1.11 Tolerance:
Difference between the maximum limit of size and the minimum limit of size (difference
between upper deviation and the lower deviation).
Tolerance zone

3) The fundamental deviation given by the formulae in Table 6 is, in principle, that
corresponding to that limit closet to the zero line, in other words, the upper deviation es for
shafts (a) to (h), and the lower deviation ei for shafts (j) to (Zc).

2) The other deviation is derived from the first one, using the magnitude of the tolerance IT
by means of the following relationships.
ES = EI + IT
or

2.2.4 Cutting angle : It is the sum of the clearance angle and wedge angle.
24
90
The rake angle may be positive when the face slopes downwards, and negative when the face
slope is upward, with respect to the basic plane. It is equal to zero when the face is parallel to
the basic plane.
1- The material to be machined, negative rake for hard and brittle materials and positive
for ductile materials.
2- The tool material.
3- The machining method.
25
2.3.1 High hardness and high hot hardness: The tool material must posses higher hardness
then that of the machined workpiece. It should have high hot hardness, (the ability to retain
hardness at high temperatures).
2.3.2 High wear resistance: The tool material must resist mechanical abrasion caused by the
sliding contact with the chips and machined surfaces.
2.3.3 High strength and toughness (impact resistance): The tool material should have
sufficient strength and toughness to withstand static and impact loads.
2.3.4 High thermal conductivity: Cutting tool materials possing higher thermal
conductivity is desirable, since it enables part of the heat generated at the cutting edge
to be transferred readily to the tool post and machine parts.
2.3.5 Low cost: For economical production, the tool cost must be as low as possible.
26
2.4.4.1 Straight tungsten cemented carbide: It consists of grains of tungsten carbide held in
a matrix of cobalt. It also known as tungsten carbide, used for machining of cast iron and
other ductile materials.

According to ISO, sintered carbides are grouped into three main groups, identified by the
letters P(blue), M(yellow), and K(red).
27
1- GroupP: Mainly intended for machining of steels and they contain a relatively
higher percentage of titanium carbide and tantalum carbide. Titanium carbide and
tantalum carbide are characterized by their hardness and lower toughness. Therefore,
they can withstand high speeds but they are sensitive to shocks and vibration.
2- Group K: Mainly composed of tungsten carbide and Cobalt. Tungsten carbide is
characterized by its toughness, used for machining materials producing short broken
chips and they withstand shocks and vibrations.
3- Group M: It is an intermediate group that contains higher percentage of tungsten
carbide. They are tougher than those in group P. used for machining of cast iron and
steels.
2.4.5 Ceramic tool materials
Ceramic materials are made by compacting followed by sintering of aluminum oxides at high
temperature (1700C). They are enable to machine all materials at very high cutting speeds
with higher surface finish and no coolant is required. The ceramic tools are inexpensive as
compared with cemented carbide tools. Al2O3 is the common material used in producing
ceramic. Brittleness and low impact strength are the disadvantages of ceramic. When ceramic
tools replaced sintered carbides, the machining time is reduced by 30 50 %, due to the
increase in cutting speeds.
2.4.6 Diamonds
Diamonds are the hardest materials; they can work up to 1500C. It is found in nature or
synthetically produced from ordinary graphite by subjecting it to extremely high pressures
and temperatures. They are used for finishing ferrous metals and alloys, dressing and truing
grinding wheels. Metal cutting tools, wire drawing dies, penetrators of hardness testers, and
lapping powder are common applications of diamonds.
28
Figure 2.5: Improvement in cutting tool materials have reduced machining time
Figure 2.6: Typical hot hardness relationship for selected tool materials. Plain carbon steel
shows a rapid loss of hardness as temperature increases, while cemented carbide and
ceramics are significantly harder at elevated temperatures.
29
2.5.2 Brazing
In this method of fixation, the tool bits are bonded with the shank by applying soldering
materials.
2.6 Disadvantages of mechanical clamping
Mechanical clamping of cutting inserts does not always ensure a contact stiffness that
is sufficiently high to prevent vibrations which develop in machining.
These vibrations shorten the life of the insert and often produce machined surfaces
with poor finish.
The clamping arrangement is often of comparatively large size, which in many cases
limits the cutting parameters of the tool such as depth of cut, width of cut.
Micro fissures are often produced due to the high temperature of the brazing
operation.

2
The relationship between the three components, depends on the cutting variables, tool
geometry, work material, and tool wear.
35
The main cutting force Ps is the power component and is responsible for
producing internal shear.
2:
The feed force Pf forms the energy required to feed the tool into the work.
36
The radial force Pr is a result of the elastic deflection of the work surface being
cut.
Both Ps and P f are responsible for lateral deflection and hence the accuracy of the
product.

q should not exceed a certain value ( 0.4 0.6), otherwise weakening of the tool and
catastrophic fracture of cutting edge occur.
The measurement of the amount of crater wear is not as simple as that of the flank wear.
The dependence of the flank wear on the time of the tool operation is shown below.

Figure 4.2: Tool wear as a function of cutting time, flank wear is used here as the
measure of tool wear.
within interval I:
The flank wear increases rapidly till point a. Rapid increase of the wear is due to the
unevenness of the newly sharpened edge is being quickly smoothed.

The most important factor affecting the tool life is the cutting speed. Therefore, its effect
will be discussed in detail.
Figure 4.3: Effect of cutting speed on tool flank wear for three cutting speeds.
Hypothetical values of speed and tool life are shown for a tool life criterion of 0.020 inch
flank wear.
4.3 Taylor tool life equation:
If the tool life values for the three wear curves are plotted on a natural log log graph,
cutting speed versus tool life. The resulting relationship is a straight line as shown in
figure 4.4.
43

The discovery of this relation around 1900 is credited to F.W. Taylor. It can be expressed
in equation form and it is called Taylor tool life equation.

BUE is formed periodically on the tools, when it reaches a comparatively large size, it
breaks off and carried away by both, the chip and workpiece. It affects dimensional
accuracy and surface finish.
The tool rake angle and the cutting speed V, have a combined influence on the formation
of the BUE, as shown in the figure below.
As it is clear from the figure, the machining condition should be selected to avoid the
formation of BUE.
Carbide and ceramic tipped tools are less inclined to have BUE then metal tool.

Originally, 15 minutes were required to replace a dull tool, but a new tool holder has
made it possible to reduce the time to 5 minutes. What increase in cutting speed does this
permit to obtain the max. rate of production from the operation?
Problem 5
The outside diameter of a cylinder made of titanium alloy is to be turned. The starting
diameter = 500 mm and the length = 1000 mm. Cutting conditions are f = 0.4 mm/rev
and d = 3.0mm. The cut will be made with a cemented carbide cutting tool whose Taylor
tool life parameters are n=0.23 and C=400 (m/min). Compute the cutting speed that will
make the tool life equal to the machining time.

In this setup the work is fixed to a rotating spindle, and the tool is attached to a boring bar
that feeds the tool into the work, as shown in figure 5.11. The boring bar in this setup
must be very stiff to avoid deflection and vibration during operation. (the boring bar is
made of cemented carbide).

Problem 3
A gun drilling operation is used to drill a 7/16 in.- diameter hole to a certain depth. It
takes 4.5 min to perform the drilling operation using high-pressure fluid delivery of
coolant to the drill point. The cutting conditions are N = 300 rev/min at a feed = 0.001
in./rev. To improve the surface finish in the hole, it has been decided to increase the
speed by 20% and decrease the feed by 25%. How long will it take to perform the
operation at the new cutting conditions?

MILLING OPERTAION
Figure 6.1: Conventional face milling with cutting force diagram for Fc, showing the
interrupted nature of process.
6.2 Types of milling operations
There are two basic types of milling operations.
6.2.1 Peripheral or slab milling: In this milling operation the axis of tool is parallel to
the surface being machined. In this operation there are two opposite directions of rotation
that the cutter can have with respect to the work. These cutter directions distinguished
two forms of milling operations, up milling and down milling.
64
65
Figure 6.3: Peripheral milling operations: (a) slab milling, (b) slotting, (c) side milling,
and (d) straddle milling.
6.2.1.1 Up milling: In up milling the direction of motion of the cutter teeth is opposite to
the feed direction. In this type of milling operation, the chip formed by each cutter tooth
starts out very thin and increases in thickness during the sweep of the cutter. The chip
length is longer than in down milling.
The cutter tends to push the work along and lift it upward from the table, therefore
greater clamping force must be employed. In up milling, chips can be carried into the
newly machined surface, causing the surface finish to be poorer.
Figure 6.4: Two forms of milling with a 20-tooth cutter: (a) up milling and (b) down
milling.
6.3 Face milling
In face milling the axis of the cutter is perpendicular to the surface being milled, as
shown in the figure 6.5.
66

(c) end milling, (d) profile milling, (e) pocket milling, and (f) surface contouring.

The milling operation is characterized by the changing of chip thickness as the cutting
proceeds. Therefore the maximum and mean values of chip thickness are to be calculated
Since the chip thickness is an important factor for calculating the cutter forces and power,
therefore the maximum and mean values of chip thickness will be calculated. From figure

PROBLEMS
Problem 1
A slab milling operation is performed to finish the top surface of a steel rectangular
workpiece 250 mm long by 75 mm wide. The helical milling cutter, which is 65 mm in
diameter and has eight teeth, is set up to overhang the width of the part on both sides.
Cutting conditions are v=35 m/min, f = 0.225 mm/tooth, and d = 0.250 in.
Determine:
(a) the time to make one pass across the surface
(b) the metal removal rate during the cut.
Problem 2
A peripheral milling operation is performed on the top surface of a rectangular workpart
that is 300 mm long by 100 mm wide. The milling cutter, which is 75 mm in diameter
and has four teeth, overhanges the width of the part on both sides. Cutting conditions are
V = 80 m/min, f = 0.2 mm/tooth, and d = 7.0 mm.
Determine:
(a) the time to make one pass across the surface
(b) the material removal rate during the cut.
Problem 3
In horizontal milling, the following conditions exist:
Work (mild steel with specific cutting energy 3200 N/mm2); Cutter (No. of teeth 12, tool
diameter 120 mm, tool width 30 mm); Machining parameters (cutting velocity 45 m/min,
feed velocity 360 mm/min, depth of cut 2.5 mm).
Calculate:
(a) Maximum chip thickness.

(b) Internal cylindrical grinding operates somewhat like a boring operation. The
workpiece is usually held in a chuck and rotated to provide surface speed. The wheel
is fed in either of two ways: (1) traverse feed or (2) plunge feed as shown in figure
7.6. The wheel diameter in internal cylindrical grinding must be smaller than the
original bore hole. Internal grinding is used to finish the hardened inside surfaces of
bearing races and bushing surfaces as shown in figure 7.5 (b).
79

Figure 7.6: Two types of feed motion in external cylindrical: (a) traverse feed and (b)
plunge-cut.
7.10.2 Surface grinding
Surface grinding is normally used to grind plain flat surfaces. It is performed using either
the periphery of the grinding wheel or the flat face of the wheel. Since the work is held
in a horizontal orientation, peripheral grinding is performed by rotating the wheel about
a horizontal axis, and face grinding is performed by rotating the wheel about a vertical
axis.
80
Figure 7.7: Four types of surface grinding: (a) horizontal spindle with reciprocating
worktable, (b) horizontal spindle with rotating worktable, (c) vertical spindle with
reciprocating worktable, and (d) vertical spindle with rotating worktable.
7.10.3 Centerless grinding
Centerless grinding has a number of advantages over cylindrical grinding. It is a self
centering, the stock removal rate is higher, and the work is firmly held by the support
plate and control or regulating wheel, which results in better dimensional accuracy, as
mentioned in figure 7.8 and 7.9.

Figure 7.11: The honing process: (a) the honing tool used for internal bore surfaces
(b) cross hatched surface pattern created by the action of the honing tool.
The honing tool consists of a set of bonded abrasive sticks. Two to four sticks would be
used for small holes, and a dozen or more would be used for larger diameter holes.
The motion of the honing tool is the combination of rotation and linear reciprocation.
Honing speed range is between 50 to 500 ft/min. During the process, the sticks are
pressed outward against the hole surface to produce the desired abrasive cutting action.
A cutting fluid must be used in honing to cool and lubricate the tool and to help remove
chips.
7.12.2 Lapping
Lapping is an abrasive process used to produce surface finish of extreme accuracy and
smoothness. It is used in the production of optical lenses, metallic bearing surfaces and
gauges as shown in figure 7.12.
Metal parts that are subjected to fatigue loading or surfaces that must be used to establish a
seal with mating part are often lapped. Instead of a bonded abrasive tool, lapping uses a
fluid suspension of very small abrasive particles between the workpiece and lapping tool.
85
The result of these conditions is mirror like finishes. This process can be used to finish
flat and external cylindrical surfaces, as shown in figure 7.13.
CHAPTER EIGHT:
BROACHING OPERATION
Figure 8.1.: Work shapes that can be cut by external and internal broaching operation.
Broaching is a process combining roughing and finishing in one operation. This process
is differs from all other conventional operations in that there is only one cutting motion
(main motion) performed by the tool. The feed is not obtained by moving the workpiece
or the tool, but by an arrangement in series of suitable stepped cutting edges, as shown in
figure 8.2.
86
The broaching machine is driven hydraulically to avoid shock loading and to prevent
overloading.
Since the teeth are generally increasing in size from the front to the rear end of the
broach, each successive tooth removes a layer of material and the size of the hole or slot
is increased. Broach can be pull type or push type, as shown in figure. The main cutting
force is applied to the front of the body of the broach, this force may be the pulling force
or the pushing force, as per type of the broach. A push broach should be shorter than a
pull broach to avoid buckling.
