Edge preparation

Wy edge Preparation?

 

edge preparation

 

  • Main goal; to increase edge stability
    • Stable edge form : to avoid edge's chipping
    • Stable, low edge surface roughness:to decrease friction between tool and workpiece
    • Stable material: to avoid material component leaching e.g. cobalt leaching
  • Without edge preparation
    • low performance
  • Different work pieces material need:
    • different edge preparation
  • Over the optimum edge preparation:
    • performance drops down abruptly
  • Optimum edge preparation can:
    • increase performance enormously
