  • Does edge micro-geometry affect tool cutting performance?
  • It is known that tool wear has detrimental effect on surface quality, which in turn is influenced by the surface topography. Table 2 displays the summaries of critical research about the effects of edge micro-geometry on tool cutting performance in the review paper. Table 2. Summary of typical tool edge micro-geometry on tool cutting performance.
  • What is tool edge micro-geometry?
  • Table 2. Summary of typical tool edge micro-geometry on tool cutting performance. Tool with edge radius 15 μm reaches the highest tool life, the lowest roughness and the lowest force load in comparison to tools with edge radius 5 and 10 μm.
  • Why is tool edge preparation important in metal machining?
  • Tool edge preparation is preferred in metal machining processes, which is strongly related to process reliability, tool cutting performance and surface integrity.
  • How chamfered tool edge affect cutting force?
  • Purposely honed or chamfered tool edge has prominent impact on cutting forces in comparison to unprepared edge. In general, cutting force components increase with increasing uniform edge hone radius or chamfer length (chamfer angle) due to ploughing and rubbing effect.
  • Which honed cutting edge has the highest tool life?
  • Highest tool life with a honed cutting edge of Sγ = 50 mm/ Sα = 30 mm. Asymmetrically honed edges with Sγ = 50 mm and Sα = 30 mm, symmetrically honed edge S ¯ = 30 mm achieving high performance. Cutting force slightly increases with the cutting edge radius.
  • Which tool edge preparation generates the lowest cutting force?
  • Among all the tested tool edge preparations including hone, waterfall hone and chamfer, the experimental results indicate in Fig. 8 that waterfall hone insert generates the lowest cutting force and the waterfall hone with 20:40 μm generates the lowest thrust force .
