  2. Speeds and feeds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speeds_and_feeds

    Cutting speed may be defined as the rate at the workpiece surface, irrespective of the machining operation used. A cutting speed for mild steel of 100 ft/min is the same whether it is the speed of the cutter passing over the workpiece, such as in a turning operation, or the speed of the cutter moving past a workpiece, such as in a milling operation.

    Maximum valley depth below the mean line, ... it ignores the geometry of the cutting edge. (J. ... Example of calculation of isotropic short-range surface roughness ...

  4. Tool wear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tool_wear

    Crater wear occurs approximately at a height equalling the cutting depth of the material. Crater wear depth (t 0) = cutting depth; Notch wear which happens on both the insert rake and flank face along the depth of cut line causing localised damage to it primarily due to pressure welding of the chips. The chips literally get welded to the insert.

  5. Surface metrology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface_metrology

    Surface metrology is the measurement of small-scale features on surfaces, and is a branch of metrology.Surface primary form, surface fractality, and surface finish (including surface roughness) are the parameters most commonly associated with the field.

  6. Rake angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rake_angle

    In machining, the rake angle is a parameter used in various cutting processes, describing the angle of the cutting face relative to the workpiece. There are three types of rake angles: positive, zero or neutral, and negative. Positive rake: A tool has a positive rake when the face of the cutting tool slopes away from the cutting edge at inner side.

  7. Square thread form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Square_thread_form

    The greatest disadvantage is the difficulty in machining such a thread. The single-point cutting tools or taps and dies used to cut the thread cannot have efficient rake and relief angles (because of the square form), which makes the cutting slow and difficult. Square threads also cannot carry as much load as a trapezoidal thread, because the ...

  8. Built up edge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Built_up_edge

    The built up edge effectively changes tool geometry and rake steepness. It also reduces the contact area between the chip and the cutting tool, [1] leading to: A reduction in the power demand of the cutting operation. [1] Slight increase in tool life, since the cutting is partly being done by the built up edge rather than the tool itself. [4]

  9. Parshall flume - Wikipedia

    Using the Parshall flume flow equations and Tables 1-3, determine the flow type (free flow or submerged flow) and discharge for a 36-inch flume with an upstream depth, Ha of 1.5 ft and a downstream depth, H b of 1.4 ft. For reference of locations H a and H b, refer to Figure 1.
