In order to obtain the relation between the cutting force and the process parameters in the chamfering process for the gear of a gear shaft, analysis of the process was performed with a simplified model instead of considering the whole actual 3-dimensional cutting situation produced between cutting tool and gear. The model divided the actual situation into the accumulation of hundreds of 2-dimensional layers with a small thickness in the direction of the height of gear and derived cutting force at a cutting position by accumulating each cutting force calculated in a layer. With proposed method to analyze the cutting forces in the chamfering process, it was revealed that the cutting position and size were exactly searched to calculate the cutting force in each layer. The total cutting force was the highest in the corner where the cutter encountered the gear first during the relative motion between them. The cutting forces were changed in proportion to the cutting parameters such as feed rate and trajectory.
