Investigation and modelling of the cutting forces in turning process of the Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-6Al-7Nb titanium alloys

The algebraic and statistical models have assumed an essential role to better understand the relationship of the cutting parameters and their interactions in the cutting forces. This work evaluated the effects of cutting speed, feed rate, and depth of cut on the cutting force (Fc) and specific cutting force (kS) in the turning of the Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-6Al-7Nb titanium alloys. The experimental tests were carried out with two different insert tools...
