Molecular Dynamics Simulation Study on Diamond Tool Wear in Cutting Aluminum-Based Workpieces

Abstract:

The problem of diamond tool wear is the bottleneck for machining large metal reflector with ultraprecision cutting method. In this paper, the author performed simulation study on diamond tool wear in machining large metal reflectors, and established a molecular dynamics simulation model for dynamic simulation of tool wear; and found that in the simulation process the change in cutting speed and cutting depth had definite effect on the tool wear, and the main factors affecting the tool wear was the cutting distance.
