Abstract: The various process parameters in turning are un-cut chip thickness, cutting velocity and feed. In parallel turning additionally tool part-off distance also plays a major role. In this work parallel turning was performed on cast iron work material at three various cutting velocities in between 75 to 185 m/min for un-cut chip thickness in range of 0.5 ̶ 2.0 mm and feeds of 0.08, 0.16 and 0.24 mm/rev. The experiment was focused to investigate the effect of un-cut chip thickness on cutting forces. The cutting forces are measured by means of Kistler dynamometer. An offset distance of 2 mm was found to be appropriate for the multi-tool turning as the two cutting tools showed similar dependencies on depth of cut, feed and cutting speeds as in a single tool turning.

Key words: Parallel Turning, feed, part-off distance, cutting speed, dynamometer
