In orthogonal cutting a new approach for modeling of burr formation process when tool exits workpiece is proposed. The approach is based on the rigid-plastic FEM combined with the ductile fracture criterion and the element kill method. The approach is applied to simulate a plane strain cutting process. The results of the FEM are compared with those of the experiment. It is shown that the fracture location and fracture angle as well as cutting force can be predicted using the proposed approach with a good correlation to experimental results.
