Question

Difference between axial depth of cut and radial depth of cut

Answer 1

Answer:

For the first-cut cases, the radial depth of cut s is defined as the distance that the tool penetrates through the workpiece at the ball center level through C axis, and the axial depth of cut a is the distance between the tool's lowest point and workpiece's upper face in the surface normal direction N

Answer 2

Explanation:

For the first-cut cases, the radial depth of cuts is defined as the distance that the tool penetrates through the workpiece at the ball center level through C axis, and the axial depth of cut a is the distance between the tool's lowest point and workpiece's upper face in the surface normal direction N (Figure 6).
