The image above represents uncut chips thickness. To calculate uncut chips thickness, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Restricted Orthogonal Cutting Angle (λ) and Feed (f).
The formula for calculating uncut chips thickness:
t = f sinλ
Where:
t = Uncut Chip Thickness
λ = Restricted Orthogonal Cutting Angle
f = Feed
Let’s solve an example;
Find the uncut chips thickness when the restricted orthogonal cutting angle is 40 and the feed is 20.
This implies that;
λ = Restricted Orthogonal Cutting Angle = 40
f = Feed = 20
t = f sinλ
So, t = 20 x sin40°
t = 20 x 0.64
t = 12.85
Therefore, the uncut chips thickness is 12.85 m.
Calculating the Restricted Orthogonal Cutting Angle when the Uncut Chips Thickness and the Feed are Given
sin λ = t / f
Where;
λ = Restricted Orthogonal Cutting Angle
t = Uncut Chip Thickness
f = Feed
Let’s solve an example;
Find the restricted orthogonal cutting angle when the uncut chips thickness is 32 and the feed is 12.
This implies that;

t = Uncut Chip Thickness = 32
f = Feed = 12
That is, sin λ = t / f
sin λ = 32 / 12
sin λ = 2.67
Therefore, the restricted orthogonal cutting angle is 2.67.

Calculating the Feed when the Uncut Chips Thickness and the Restricted Orthogonal Cutting Angle are Given
f = t / sinλ
Where;
f = Feed
t = Uncut Chip Thickness
λ = Restricted Orthogonal Cutting Angle
Let’s solve an example;
Find the feed when the uncut chip thickness is 30 and the restricted orthogonal cutting angle is 6.
This implies that;
t = Uncut Chip Thickness = 30
λ = Restricted Orthogonal Cutting Angle = 6
f = t / sinλ
f = 30 / sin 6
So, f = 30 / 0.094
f = 319.1
Therefore, the feed is 319.1.
