Abstract
In order to study the fractal features of the tool profile of worn surface and cutting force during the process of cutting hard brittle materials such as ceramics, the milling experiments of ZrO2 were carried out. The images of worn surface and cutting force were collected and preprocessed with digital image processing technology and phase space reconstruction method. Then the fractal dimensions were calculated and the change regularity was analyzed. The research findings show that the fractal dimension of worn surface is affected by wear rates and machining time, and can be different while the wear loss is same. The fractal dimension of cutting force oscillates with a high-low-high general trend.
Keywords: Capacity dimension, correlation dimension, tool wear, zirconia.
