Abstract
The first explanations of the mechanics of metal cutting were formulated in the late 19th century. Early ideas proposed theories based on a ‘splitting’ of the workpiece material ahead of the cutting tool but this explanation was soon discarded in favour of the shear plane theory which suggests that the chip is formed during machining by fracture along successive shear planes which are inclined to the direction of cutting.
