Modelling of Oblique Wire Cutting and Experimental Application on Soft Solid Foods for the Investigation of Friction Behaviour

Figure 8

Plot the force in respect to the feed during a cut. The angle λ = 45° and the wire has a diameter of dWire = 0.1 mm. The feed rate  = 1 mm/s. The FMD is shown in black and the FCD in grey. The dash-dot lines represent the fitted force curves and the continuous lines result from the corrected measurements. (a) Edam Cheese. (b) Leberkäse. (c) Bubble gum 1. (d) Bubble gum 2.
