An Integrated Mathematical Model on Thermal Phenomena in the Cutting Process

The paper presents theoretical and experimental research to unify the dynamic and thermal phenomena in a single comprehensive model of the cutting process identify parameters that characterize the state of the system and provide quick information on the rate at which to produce the wear for tool edges and how it can be influenced. Experimental and theoretical research on the temperature of the tool edge and the medium intensity of wear established similarities between the evolutions of the two phenomena that lead to the conclusion that by modeling the evolution of the thermal phenomenon can be determined the evolution of the medium intensity of wear.
