Mechanistic cutting force model for rotary ultrasonic machining of rocks

Cutting force is the predominant output variable in rotary ultrasonic machining (RUM). It dictates other output variables, such as tool wear, cutting temperature, edge chipping, etc. It is desirable to develop a mechanistic model to predict cutting force and reveal the underlying cutting tool-workpi...

Zusammenfassung:Cutting force is the predominant output variable in rotary ultrasonic machining (RUM). It dictates other output variables, such as tool wear, cutting temperature, edge chipping, etc. It is desirable to develop a mechanistic model to predict cutting force and reveal the underlying cutting tool-workpiece interaction in RUM. Numerous researchers have developed theoretical approaches to predict cutting force in RUM; nevertheless, the combined effects of material removal on cutting force model have not been investigated. RUM has been used for machining rocks in several recent experimental investigations. However, there are no reports on cutting force model for RUM of rocks. This work bridges the gap and reports an improved mechanistic cutting force model. The model is derived based on the ductile mode removal and brittle fracture mode removal of rock under the indentation of a single abrasive particle. The cutting force model for RUM of rocks is then developed by aggregating the effects of all active abrasive particles bonded to the tool end face. Based on this model, the relationships between input variables (tool rotation speed, feedrate, ultrasonic vibration amplitude, abrasive size, abrasive concentration, and tool size) and cutting force are predicted. Experiments have been conducted and the experimental results agree well with the model predicted trends.
