Cutting Force https://popups.uliege.be/esaform21/index.php?id=2427 Index terms fr 0 Cutting Force in Milling of Additive Manufacturing AISI 420 Stainless Steel https://popups.uliege.be/esaform21/index.php?id=1505 In manufacturing, hybrid systems of metal additive manufacturing and cutting in the same platform have been attractive in terms of low volume production of customized parts, complex shape, and fine surface finish. Milling is conducted to finish rough surface fabricated in additive process. The fundamental machinability of the additive workpiece should be studied because the material properties are different from metals produced in the conventional process. The paper discusses the cutting forces in milling of AISI 420 stainless steel fabricated in additive process. The cutting tests were conducted to measure the cutting forces and the chip morphologies for tool geometries. The cutting forces were also analyzed in an energy-based force model. In the analysis model, three-dimensional chip flow is interpreted as a piling up of orthogonal cuttings in the planes containing the cutting velocities and the chip flow velocities, where the cutting model is made by the orthogonal cutting data acquired in cutting tests. The chip flow direction is determined to minimize the cutting energy. The cutting forces, then, were predicted in the determined chip flow model. The cutting force model was validated in comparison of simulated forces with the actual ones.

However the use of metallic materials such as aluminum and titanium alloys is still necessary in many cases and a lot of structures are made of a dual technology called stacks (panels composed of different layers of FRP and metal bounded together). Combining the different properties of these materials offers many advantages regarding the mechanical and structural aspects. This is nevertheless for the same reason that machining and especially drilling stacks is a laborious task: the tools and cutting conditions are way too divergent to avoid vibrations, problems of dimensional tolerances and delamination of the composite. The knowledge and characterization of the drilling cutting forces is a first step to solve these issues. The purpose of this article is to provide an accurate macroscopic analytical model fitted for stacks and compare it quantitatively with experimental tests. The given model is divided in two parts (i.e. respectively adapted for the two materials) and is based on the discretization of the cutting edge. The proposed algorithm is able to predict accurately drilling force and torque along time in function of the cutting conditions, the tool and material configurations. A reverse least squared method is used to obtain the empirical input parameters, allowing to minimize the number of experimental drilling tests to obtain the empirical input parameters.

The modelling of orthogonal cutting process of Ti6Al4V attract the interest of many researchers as it often generates serrated chips. The purpose of this paper is to show the significant influence of cutting speed on chip formation during orthogonal cutting of Ti6Al4V along with different material constitutive models. Finite element analyses for chip formation are conducted for different cutting speeds and are investigated with well-known Johnson-Cook constitutive model, a modified Johnson–Cook model known as Hyperbolic Tangent (TANH) model that emphasizes the strain softening behavior and modified Johnson-Cook constitutive model that consider temperature dependent strain hardening factor. A 2D Lagrangian finite element model is adopted for the simulation of the orthogonal cutting process and the results from the simulations such as calculated forces, chip morphologies are analyzed and are compared with the experimental results to highlight the differences. The results analysis shows that, the temperature in the secondary deformation zone is directly proportional to the cutting speed.
