Cutting Data for Turning of Steel Edmund Isakov 250 pages, Illustrated Published: October, 2008
Machining is one of the most important manufacturing processes, which remove unwanted material in the form of chips from a workpiece. Material removal operations are among the most expensive; in the U.S. alone, more than $100 billion were spent on machining in 1999. These high costs put tremendous economic pressures on production managers and engineers as they struggle to find ways to increase productivity.
Machining recommendations provided in this specialized machining book cover turning since it allows removing more material per unit of time and consuming more power at the roughing operations than end milling, boring or drilling. Machining recommendations relate to cutting speeds, feed rates, and depth of cuts. Such recommendations depend on the workpiece material properties and the cutting tool material. Workpiece materials described in this book are the most commonly used grades of carbon, alloy, stainless, tool, and maraging steels. Cutting tool materials are cemented carbides, cermets, and ceramics.
* Describes hardness, tensile strength, and machinability of steels-the major mechanical properties. These properties are taken into consideration when selecting machining parameters. * Features machining recommendations for turning that provide the cutting speed values based on Brinell hardness numbers, the depth of cut, and feed rate in relationships with the type of steel. * Summarizes numerous calculations in five appendices.

Advanced Metalcutting Calculators & Engineering Formulas for Metalcutting, CD and Book Combo
Edmund Isakov
212 pages, Illustrated, 5 x 7
Published: June, 2005
OVERVIEW
Advanced Metalcutting Calculators contains four calculators for major metalcutting operations: Milling, Turning, Boring, Drilling; and a fifth for calculating exact Machining Time when facing, cutting off, and deep grooving. All calculators are developed in Microsoft Excel and execute all parameters in both U.S. and metric units. These calculators provide computations more accurate than any other calculators on the market and can be used by anyone involved in manufacturing, including machinists, technicians, and engineers.
Advanced Computations:
Power requirements when milling, turning, boring, or drilling are calculated by tangential force and cutting speed, or by torque and the number of revolutions per minute. These requirements are calculated when cutting inserts are sharp and prior to indexing or changing them
CONTENTS
MILLING CALCULATOR
* Cutting force versus ultimate tensile strength of the work material and area of the chip.
* Torque at spindle versus cutting force and the cutter diameter.
* Adjustments to feed rate depending on the cutter geometry and width of cut
TURNING CALCULATOR
* Cutting force components tangential force versus depth of cut, feed rate, and the work materials power constant; feed and radial forces versus tangential force and the coefficients of proportionality, depending on the group of work materials.
* Torque at spindle versus tangential force and the workpiece diameter
BORING CALCULATOR (in addition to the same two features immediately above)
* Deflection versus resulting cutting force, unsupported length of the boring bar, moment of inertia of the bar cross- sectional area, and the modulus of elasticity of the bar material. Note: The method of determining feed and radial forces when turning and boring, and the calculators that utilize this method are patented (US Patent # 6,836,697)
DRILLING CALCULATOR
* Tangential force versus drill diameter, feed rate, power constant of the work material, and the drill wear factor.
* Thrust (axial force) versus tangential force and the coefficient of proportionality establishing thrust-to-tangential force ratio.
* Torque at the drill versus tangential force and the drill diameter.
MACHINING TIME:
* Radius of the workpiece when the machine tool spindle runs at the maximum rpm.
* Machining time (in minutes) when facing or cutting off to the center of the workpiece; or when deep grooving, facing, or cutting off to a shoulder of the workpiece.
