During orthogonal turning by using single Al, cutting tool, F = 0.24 mm/rev, uncut chip = 0.23 mm, ϕ = 20°, tangential force component = 800 N, radial force = 150 N. The value of Shear force is _______ N.
Correct Answer :
Solution :
The correct answer is 700.
Step-by-Step Explanation:
In orthogonal turning, the shear force () can be calculated from the cutting force components using Merchant's force circle relationship. The formula for the shear force is:
Where:
• is the tangential cutting force component = 800 N
• is the thrust force component (represented by the radial force in this setup) = 150 N
• is the shear angle = 20°
Substituting the given values into the shear force equation:
Using the values of the trigonometric functions:
•
•
Now, calculate each component:
Subtracting the thrust component from the cutting component to obtain the shear force:
Rounding to the nearest integer, we find:
