Machining Fundamentals Flashcards
week 8
In machining is there a wastage of material?
Yes
Machining
material removal by a sharp
cutting tool, e.g., turning, milling, drilling
Abrasive processes
material removal by hard, abrasive particles, e.g., grinding
Nontraditional processes
various energy forms other than sharp cutting tools to remove material
What is a chip
whatever material removed is called a chip
cutting action involves sheer deformation of material to form a _____.
chip
why is machining important?
- good dimensional accuracy and surface finish
- variety of work materials
- variety of part shapes and special; geometric features
disadvatage with machining
- wastage of material (chip)
- Time consuming (removed layer by layer)
where is machining in the manufacturing sequence?
generally performed after other manufacturing processes (casting, forging, bat drawing)
what are the types of machining operations
Common machining types:
*Turning
*Drilling
*Milling
Other machining types:
*Sawing
*Shaping and planing
*Broaching
*Grinding
What is turning operation
work peice is rotating and cutting tool provides feed (single point cutting)
Flat turning feed:
tool is fed parallel to the work axis
what is drilling
tool is rotating and speed depends on tool diameter
drilling feed
parallel to tool axis
depth of cut is the
depth of the hole
drilling is a
multi point cutting
what is milling
tool is turniing (defining surface speed)
in milling surface velocity depends on
diameter of the tool
depth of cut in milling
tool penetrates beneath original work surface (multi point cutting )
feed of milling
work feeds in the direction perpendicular to tool surface
which operations are single point cutting
turning
which operations are multi point cutting
drilling and milling
what is rake face
directs flow of new chips - at an angle called rake angle
what does flank of the tool provide
provides the clearence berween the tool and the new work surface - at an angle called relief/clearance angle
