Abstract |
|
Formation of foot occurs in shaping when a cutting tool exits the work piece. It may cause chipping of the cutting edge leaving the exit edge of the work piece. Presence of foot causes difficulties in the manufacture of different assembly. In this experiment, an attempt is made to reduce foot formation of aluminum alloy (4600-M) by beveling the exit edge of the work piece under dry environment. Experimental results are analyzed through ANOVA to find out the significance of machining parameters and exit edge bevel angle to reduce foot formation. It is found out that exit edge bevel angle has more significant effect than cutting velocity and orthogonal rake angle. No foot is observed at 15 ° exit edge bevel angle. |
