Back Rake Angle Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Back Rake Angle = atan((cos(Approach or Entering Angle)*tan(Orthogonal Rake Angle))+(sin(Approach or Entering Angle)*tan(Inclination Angle)))
α_b = atan((cos(λ)*tan(α))+(sin(λ)*tan(𝒊)))
This formula uses 4 Functions, 4 Variables

Functions Used

sin - Sine is a trigonometric function that describes the ratio of the length of the opposite side of a right triangle to the length of the hypotenuse., sin(Angle)
cos - Cosine of an angle is the ratio of the side adjacent to the angle to the hypotenuse of the triangle., cos(Angle)
tan - The tangent of an angle is a trigonometric ratio of the length of the side opposite an angle to the length of the side adjacent to an angle in a right triangle., tan(Angle)
atan - Inverse tan is used to calculate the angle by applying the tangent ratio of the angle, which is the opposite side divided by the adjacent side of the right triangle., atan(Number)

Variables Used

Back Rake Angle - (Measured in Radian) - The Back Rake Angle or Top Rake Angle is the angle between the face of the tool and a line parallel to the base of the tool and measured in a plane (perpendicular) through the side cutting edge.
Approach or Entering Angle - (Measured in Radian) - The Approach or Entering Angle is the angle between a plane perpendicular to the cutter axis and a plane tangent to the surface of the revolution of the cutting edges.
Orthogonal Rake Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Orthogonal Rake Angle is the angle of orientation of the tool’s rake surface from the reference plane and measured on the orthogonal plane.
Inclination Angle - (Measured in Radian) - Inclination Angle is the angle of inclination of the tool’s principal cutting edge from the reference plane and measured on the cutting plane.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Approach or Entering Angle: 15 Degree --> 0.2617993877991 Radian (Check conversion here)
Orthogonal Rake Angle: 37 Degree --> 0.64577182323778 Radian (Check conversion here)
Inclination Angle: 2 Degree --> 0.03490658503988 Radian (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

α_b = atan((cos(λ)*tan(α))+(sin(λ)*tan(𝒊))) --> atan((cos(0.2617993877991)*tan(0.64577182323778))+(sin(0.2617993877991)*tan(0.03490658503988)))

Evaluating ... ...

α_b = 0.635074288150182

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.635074288150182 Radian -->36.3870763882874 Degree (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

36.3870763882874 ≈ 36.38708 Degree <-- Back Rake Angle
