Abstract:

A tool angle can be reasonably selected to improve the chip control effect of polycrystalline diamond (PCD) tools with chip breakers. The cutting process is observed by finite element simulation and high-speed photography, and the influence of cutting edge angle on chip flow direction is analyzed. A concept of chip contact rate is put forward to measure the influence of chip breaker on chip flow direction, the types of chip are collected and counted, the relation curve between cutting edge angle and chip contact rate is established, and the reasonable value range of cutting edge angle is determined. The deflection angle parameters of chip breaker are presented, and the relation curve between the deflection angle and the chip contact rate is established. The results show that the increase in the cutting edge angle will weaken the control effect of chip breaker on the chip flow direction. When the cutting edge angle is in the range of 75°- 95°, the chip can flow to the workpiece surface and break to form C-shaped, 6-shaped and compact short spiral chips. and the chip breaking effect under the condition of unreasonable cutting edge angle can be improved by adjusting the chip deflection angle. Selecting the reasonable cutting edge angle and chip breaker deflection angle can improve the chip contact rate of PCD tool with chip breaker, realize the effective chip breaking and improve the excellent chip ratio.
