In using the orthogonal cutting model to approximate a turning operation, the chip thickness before the cut t_o corresponds to which one of the following cutting conditions in turning: A)depth of cut d B)feed f C)speed v

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In the orthogonal cutting model used to approximate turning operations, the chip thickness before the cut (t_o) corresponds to the feed (f). The feed in turning operations determines the thickness of the material layer that is being removed with each revolution of the workpiece, which directly relates to the initial chip thickness in the model.
