ANALYSIS OF CUTTING FORCES OF THE LATHE TOOL DYNAMOMETER

Current research focused on the assessment of metal machining process parameters and on the development of adaptive control,shows that machine performance,work-piece and tool material selections,tool life,quality of machined surfaces,the geometry of cutting tool edges,and cutting conditions are closely related to the c utting forces. The paper deals with checking the design of lathe tool dynamometer under the capa city of 500 kg and optimization of their cutting force measurement. In this,mechanical gaug es were replaced by resistance strain gauges which are being utilized to sense the cuttin g forces during machining and give the necessary information of cutting forces in terms of resistances which is the measure of cutting and feed forces. The data is obtained using techniq ue of force measurement in metal machining processes. In particular for turning proc ess the results are analyzed,leading to an appraisal of the current status of the cutting forc e measurements w.r.t. Feed rate,depth of cut and feed/revolution.
