Machinability, especially turning process, is a
significant manufacturing method, but the vibrations, arisen from the natural
mechanism of the process, make difficulties. Unnumbered parameters influence
the process outcomes such as surface roughness, chip morphology, and vibration
amplitudes. In the present paper, the effect of tool approach angle and chip
slenderness ratio (CSR) on the vibration amplitudes, StDev in vibrations, and
chip morphology were investigated. For this purpose, 15o, 30o,
and 45o approach angles, 1, 3, 5, 10, and 15 CSR also depending on
CSR values 0,1 mm/rev, 0,15 mm/rev, 0,45 mm/rev, and 0,5 mm/rev feed rates, 0,5
mm, 1 mm, 1,5 mm, and 2,25 mm cutting depths were selected. It was investigated
that according to both vibration amplitudes and chip morphology criterion, the
most appropriate cutting tool approach angle was 30o, and CSR values
were 10 and 15. Besides, as the tool approach angle progress, the vibration
amplitudes in the X (cutting depth) direction were deteriorated, but at small
CSR values, they were increased. The optimum feed rates were to be 0,1 mm/rev
and 0,15 mm/rev, but the influence of the cutting depth showed differences
depending on the values of the selected feed rates. Surface quality was
improved at 30o and 45o approach angles, 0,1mm/rev and
0,15 mm/rev feed rates and10 and 15 CSR values. The chips in lamellas form,
without severe deformation cracks and serration formation were observed at 30o
approach angle, 0,1 mm/rev and 0,15 mm/rev feed rates also at 10 and 15 CSR
values.
