DESIGN AND ANALYSIS OF SINGLE POINT CUTTING TOOL

WITH DIFFERENT MATERIALS

ABSTRACT

The geometry of cutting tool surfaces is one of the crucial parameters

affecting the quality of manufacturing process and has been traditionally defined
using the principles of projective geometry. The parameters of geometry defining
the various cutting tool angles are described by means of taking appropriate
projections of the cutting tool surfaces. Development in the field of computer
Aided Geometric Design(CAGD) now provide more elegant approach for
specifying the cutting tool surfaces as a set of bi parametric surface patches. In this
study different forces which gets induced on the single point cutting tool is applied
on the 3d model of the component and its structural characteristics are analyzed
and the same procedure is repeated by applying the different material which
possess higher strength and its structural properties are characterized. The results
obtained is compared with the common existing material, for identifying the best
suitable replacement material for manufacturing the effective tool which is used for
production operations. The cutting tool geometry is created using SOLIDWORKS
2016 and analysis part is carried out using finite element software called ANSYS
WORKBENCH R 16.
