Week 9 Machining with Planer Challenge

OBJECTIVE:-

  • To perform an Explicit dynamics simulation of the given body.

Geometry:

Materials:

Cutting tool is kept as Rigid with Structural Steel as material and the Workpiece is assigned with Steel 1006 material.

Connections:

In Explicit Analysis, the model mainly depends mainly on Body Interactions.

Mesh:

For cutting tool, Tetrahedrons method is assigned.

For the case of Workpiece, 4 edges were selected for division meshing, where 10 divisions were assigned.

Analysis Settings:

End time = 7.5e-4 s

Fixed support:

Velocity:

Velocity of 20000 mm/s and 15000 mm/s is worked on for the two cases.

Solutions:

Case 1 : Velocity 20000 mm/s

Total deformation:

Min. value = 0 mm , Max. value = 34.316 mm

Equivalent stress:

Min. value = 0 MPa , Max. value = 673.99 MPa

User defined Temperature :

Min. value = 19.85 degree Celcius , Max. value = 367.77 degree Celcius

Case 2 : Velocity 15000 mm/s

Total deformation:

Min. value = 0 mm , Max. value = 23.61 mm

Equivalent stress:

Min. value = 0 MPa , Max. value = 674.49 MPa

User defined Temperature :

Min. value = 19.85 degree Celcius , Max. value = 364.74 degree Celcius

CONCLUSIONS:-

Comparing results for both cases:

Velocity mm/s

Total deformation, in mm

Equivalent stress, in MPa

Temperature, in degree Celcius

From above table, we can observe that:

  • Total deformation is maximum in case 1 with velocity of 20000 mm/s.
  • Equivalent stress is maximum in Case 2.
  • Temperature is maximum in Case 1 20000 mm/s as it is travelling with higher velocity.
