Tungsten Carbide Cutting Tool Cutting Layer Parameters - Part 2

Tungsten carbide cutting tool cutting layer cross-sectional area AD: cutting layer called the nominal cross-sectional area, which is the size of the plane where the cutting layer cross-sectional area measurements.

Tungsten carbide cutting tool cutting thickness BD: The full name of cutting the nominal thickness, it is cutting the size of the layer surface perpendicular to the transitional measure.

Tungsten carbide cutting tool cutting layer width HD: Cutting called the nominal width, which is measured parallel to the cutting surface of the transition layer of size.

Cutting layer thickness and the width of the cutting angle with the main changes in the size. When the main angle equal to 90 °, cutting layer width equal amount of feed, cutting thickness equal to the depth of cut. Cutting layer cross-sectional area only cutting the amount of cutting depth, feed-related, from the main angle of impact. But the shape of the cross section of the cutting layer and the main angle, nose radius size. With the decrease of the main angle of the cutting thickness will be reduced, while cutting width will increase.
