PT - JOURNAL ARTICLE AU - Pálmai, Zoltán TI - Model of chip formation during turning in the presence of a built-up edge (BUE) DP - 2012 Dec 1 TA - Manufacturing Technology Journal PG - 207--212 VI - 12 IP - 2 AID - 10.21062/ujep/x.2012/a/1213-2489/MT/12/2/207 IS - 12132489 AB - During turning, in the course of the deformation of the material, a metallic deposit, a so-called built-up edge (BUE), may occasionally form, which may damage the surface and shorten the tool life. We have observed the effect thereof on chip formation using microscopic techniques and have developed a mathematical model for this process. Laboratory experience confirms the numeric solution of the time-delayed autonomous differential equations. This model can be applied to other technologies as well where the thickness of the undeformed chip varies.
