Abstract
In order to carry out a machining process with high efficiency, a study was performed that relates cutting conditions with the consumption of electric energy in a CNC machining center. During the experiment, the influence of the axial depth of cut and radial depth of cut on the energy consumption was evaluated. These parameters directly influence the machining cross section and the forces involved in the process. Severe cutting conditions increase the material removal rate (MRR), but they increase the forces and require more energy consumption for cutting. Slighter conditions require less effort to perform cutting, but machining times are increased. AISI P20 steel was machined by milling in a machining center and the relationship between material removal rate and electric power consumption was evaluated.
