Abstract

This study aims to evaluate cutter acting forces as well as axial stresses and torques in the shaft of two kinds of disc cutters including a single disc cutter and a double disc cutter with the same cutter ring geometry in a series of linear cutting tests. From the tests, the mean values of normal forces and rolling forces acting on the double disc cutter were approximately twice as high as those from the single disc cutter. Similarly, the mean values of axial stresses in the shaft of the double disc cutter were also twice as high as those from the single disc cutter even though the comparisons of torques from two kinds of disc cutters were insignificant since they showed very low values. However, it is necessary to take the durability of a tapered roller bearing used for the double disc cutter into high consideration since the average normal force from the double disc cutter exceeds the allowable force for a disc cutter with the diameter of 432 mm (17 inches). Finally, there is no practical problem in terms of axial stresses in the shaft of the double disc cutter since they are much lower than the yielding stress of the cutter shaft material, even though the axial stresses in the shaft of the double disc cutter are approximately twice as high as those from the single disc cutter.

본 연구는 선형절삭시험 중에 동일한 커터 링 형상을 가진 더블디스크커터와 싱글디스크커터에 발생하는 커터작용력과 각 디스크커터 축에 발생하는 축응력 및 토크를 평가하였다. 선형절삭시험 결과, 선형절삭실험 중에 발생한 더블디스크커터의 연직력과 회전력의 평균값은 싱글디스크커터의 약 두 배 내외인 것으로 측정되었다. 더블디스크커터의 축에 작용하는 축응력의 평균값 역시 연직력과 마찬가지로 싱글디스크커터의 두 배 정도로 나타났지만, 토크의 경우에는 전체적으로 낮은 측정값을 보여 비교의 의미가 없는 것으로 판단되었다. 하지만 더블디스크커터의 연직력의 평균값이 직경 432 mm(17인치) 디스크커터의 허용하중을 상회하기 때문에 테이퍼 롤러 베어링의 내구성능에 대한 검토가 필요한 것으로 판단되었다. 또한 더블디스크커터 축에 작용하는 축응력은 싱글디스크커터의 약 두 배 정도로 발생하였지만, 일반적으로 사용하는 디스크커터 축 재료의 항복강도를 고려할 때 적용 상에 문제가 없는 것으로 나타났다.
