Effects of Tool Wear on the Surface Texture in Turning: A Feature Characterization Approach Based on ISO 21920-2

The surface texture of a turned component acts as a fingerprint of both the process parameters and the tool wear condition, imaging the cutting edge.

The surface texture of a turned component acts as a fingerprint of both the process parameters and the tool wear condition, imaging the cutting edge. Classical surface parameters such as $R_\mathrm{a}$ or $R_\mathrm{q}$ describe the topography only globally and allow no…
