Change of chip shapes in drilling G ● Change of chip shapes relating to cutting conditions Photographs below show the change of chip shapes relating to change of the feed and the cutting speed. These chip shapes areall well controlled in a proper condition range.H When the speed and feed are low, the chip shows whitish color and the tail of the chip tends to lengthen gradually. In contrast, as the speed or the feed increases, the chip tends to increase in brightness and becomes a compact shape with a short tail. These changes in the shape depend on the cutting temperature. As the temperature increases, chips tend to be broken. I High Feed Low J K High Cutting speed Tail Low L M Tungaloy L073
