Abstract

A new electromagnetic quick stop device (EQSD) used for both metal cutting research and teaching is described. This device employs an electromagnet to secure the workpiece while cutting is executed, and then another one to force the workpiece away from the tool instantaneously to obtain the chip sample. In comparison between the conventional quick stop devices and the EQSD, the EQSD is shown to have more safety, longer life, less cost, and less time than the conventional one. The performance of this device was analyzed and tested by a new measuring system. The results showed that the EQSD meets the performance requirement of conventional QSDs.
