Abstract
The finite element modeling (FEM) simulation permits the prediction of the cutting forces, stresses, and temperatures of the cutting process. This work follows to create a threedimensionally model for the milling operation, considering the real geometry of the insert, for parts from polyamide PA 66 – GF 30. Polyamide PA 66 – GF 30 is a technical thermoplastic material which has excellent mechanical and physical properties and which is more and more often used in the automotive engineering industry.
