In the classical approach, energetic effects (cutting forces and cutting power) of wood sawing process are generally calculated on basis specific resistance, which is in case function more or less important factors. On other hand, (or power—more interesting from point view) could be considered a view modern fracture mechanics. Cutting may employed to determine not only toughness but also shear yield strength, then applied models. Furthermore, forecasting plane angle for models, include...
The enormous use of cutting fluid in machining leads to an increase costs, along with different health hazards. Cutting can be used efficiently using the MQL (minimum quantity lubrication) method, which aids improving performance.
