Variables
Functions
Orthogonal Rake Angle
Orthogonal Rake Angle is the angle of orientation of the tool’s rake surface from the reference plane and measured on the orthogonal plane.
Symbol: α
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Side Rake Angle of Tool
The Side Rake Angle of Tool is an angle between the tool face and a line parallel to the base of the tool and measured in a plane perpendicular to the base at the side cutting edge.
Symbol: αsr
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
Approach or Entering Angle
The Approach or Entering Angle is the angle between a plane perpendicular to the cutter axis and a plane tangent to the surface of the revolution of the cutting edges.
Symbol: λ
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value can be positive or negative.
Back Rake Angle
The Back Rake Angle or Top Rake Angle is the angle between the face of the tool and a line parallel to the base of the tool and measured in a plane (perpendicular) through the side cutting edge.
Symbol: αb
Measurement: AngleUnit: °
Note: Value should be greater than 0.
sin
Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse.
Syntax: sin(Angle)
cos
Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle.
Syntax: cos(Angle)
tan
The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle.
Syntax: tan(Angle)
ctan
Cotangent is a trigonometric function that is defined as the ratio of the adjacent side to the opposite side in a right triangle.
Syntax: ctan(Angle)
arctan
Inverse trigonometric functions are usually accompanied by the prefix - arc. Mathematically, we represent arctan or the inverse tangent function as tan-1 x or arctan(x).
Syntax: arctan(Number)
