Cutting Process Simulation of Titanium TC4 Based on DEFORM-3D

Abstract

DEFORM-3D is a finite element method (FEM) software that can perfectly simulate cutting process of materials. In order to research the cutting process of titanium, modeling and simulation to the cutting of TC4 were researched by using DEFORM-3D software. The influence rule of cutting parameters on cutting force and temperature were discussed and analyzed. The results have important significance to reduce experimental number and processing costs.
