thank you, but you knew whatever the type of tool, there is no motion in the direction of feed force. If the rake angle equal to zero, is there a feed force?Baluncore said:The profile of the cutter has an effect on the force needed to feed the cutter into the cut.
A tool steel saw with positive rake may hook or pull the cutter into the material.
A carbide cutter with negative rake may be forced back from the material.
The increased use of negative rake requires stronger, more rigid machine tools with more powerful feed.

What material are you machining?
What tool material and profile are you using?
A feed force is necessary in the cutting process because it provides the necessary energy to move the cutting tool through the material being cut. Without a feed force, the cutting tool would not be able to penetrate and remove material effectively.
The feed force directly affects the quality of the cut by controlling the speed at which the cutting tool moves through the material. Too much feed force can result in a rough and uneven cut, while too little feed force can cause the cutting tool to get stuck or break.
The amount of feed force needed in the cutting process is influenced by several factors, including the type and hardness of the material being cut, the type of cutting tool being used, and the desired speed and depth of the cut.
No, there is no one-size-fits-all approach when it comes to feed force in the cutting process. The optimal feed force will vary depending on the specific materials and tools being used, as well as the desired outcome of the cut.
Yes, the feed force can be adjusted during the cutting process to achieve the desired outcome. This can be done manually by the operator or through automated systems that monitor and adjust the feed force based on real-time data.
