Abstract Proportions of high- and ultra-high strength steels are constantly increasing in modern car bodies. In the press shop there uncertainties concerning application with higher than 1000MPa particularly shear cutting processes. To support steel user regarding a tool material coating wear behavior, long-term test had been carried out. The effects various conditions on damage were investigat...

in manufacturing industry, it has been acknowledged that tool wear prediction has an important role in higher quality of products and acceptable efficiency. being an emerging area of research in recent years, drilling tool wear is an important factor which directly affects quality parameters of machined hole such as hole centring, roundness, burr formation and finished surface. in this paper, t...

In the laser cutting process some well-known parameters, e.g. laser power and cutting speed, play major roles in the performance of the process. Each parameter or a combination of parameters can affect the material removal volume and cutting volume efficiency. The purpose of this research is to study the effect of power and maximum cutting speed on the material removal rate (MRR) and cutting vo...

The assumption that negligible work is involved in the formation of new surfaces in the machining of ductile metals, is re-examined in the light of both current Finite Element Method (FEM) simulations of cutting and modern ductile fracture mechanics. The work associated with separation criteria in FEM models is shown to be in the kJ=m2 range rather than the few J=m2 of the surface energy (surfa...

in the present study, shearing properties of sugar cane stems were determined at five moisture content levels (46, 54, 62, 70 and 78% wb), three shearing speed (5, 10 and 15 mm min-1) and at ten positions on the stem. for measuring the shearing forces, the stems were severed by using a computer aided cutting apparatus. decrease in moisture content of stem from 78 to 46% wb led to 16.3 and 16.7%...

In dry machining, the tool-chip interface temperature is a critical factor affecting the engineering performance of WC–Co tools. As the temperature variation of the cutting tool in dry machining is similar to that in annealing process, the effect of tool-chip interface temperature on the mechanical properties of cutting tool materials in dry machining can be studied by means of annealing experi...

One objective of precision agriculture is to provide accurate information about soil and crop properties to optimize the management of agricultural inputs to meet site-specific needs. This paper describes the development of a sensor equipped with RTK-GPS technology that continuously and efficiently measures soil cutting resistance at various depths while traversing the field. Laboratory and pre...
