Abstract


In recent years, the finite element analysis has become an important instrument for the simulation of metal cutting processes.  For improving the cutting process of metal parts, numeric modelling and simulation are needed. It is also required to numerically model the interaction at the interface tool – part such as to predict the performances of cutting process. According to research, the most used indicators in monitoring the cutting process are: cutting forces, power intake, vibrations, quality of processed surface, tool wear, processing accuracy etc.

Key words: cutting simulation, finite element analysis, monitoring of cutting process.
