doi:10.3901/JME.2016.11.146

Abstract

Abstract: Cutting tool is regarded as the tooth of machine tool, and they play a key role in metal cutting. Nowadays, the customization is a develop direction of cutting tool to improve the machining capability of cutting tool. In this case, the flexibility and accuracy of cutting tool design is the main challenges. Towards the issues, a feature based cutting tool “shape-performance-application” integrating design (CTSPAID) approach is presented, which is driven by the machining requirements. It utilizes the basic theories of cutting process, e.g. geometry constraint, cutting force distribution, cutting layer mechanism, cutting tool strength, high temperature material science, high temperature tribology, chemistry relationship. Integrating all of the related theories into cutting tool design feature (TDF), the method can realize the unification of shape, capability and application of cutting tools. The suitable cutting tool can be achieved, as well as the cutting condition, cutting parameters. Also, the architecture of the cutting tool design system is proposed, and also the software platform of this system. The case study is used to show the details of the process of the approach, and demonstrate the feasibility of the method. The CTSPAID method provides a new idea for the customization of cutting tool.

Key words: cutting tool design, tool application, tool design feature, tool performance, tool shape
