5. Conclusions
- Ultrasonic elliptical vibration cutting has a significant reduction in average cutting forces due to the periodic nature of the cutting. This is a result of the variable speed cutting action, with a 60% reduction in average cutting forces compared to conventional cutting;
- Ultrasonic elliptical vibration cutting briefly separates the tool from the chip during the rewind phase of each cutting period, during which the tool is cooled, resulting in a periodic wave-like rise in the temperature profile and a 17.6% reduction in the average cutting temperature compared to conventional cutting methods;
- By analyzing the stresses between the tool and the particles during co-located particle cutting, ultrasonic elliptical vibration cutting tends to have a horizontal direction of particle fragmentation and cracking, where the TiC particles are mainly removed by cutting off.
