Abstract: In this work, we present a numerical simulation of the thermal behaviour of three dimensional ball end milling model based on analytical formulation. The geometrical models of the tool, chip and workpiece are created by using CAD package techniques, based on a theoretical study of oblique cutting. The primary and secondary shear zones are also integrated in the whole model. In the numerical analysis, they are considered as the main thermal heat loads. The temperature distribution, in the designed cutting zone, is solved with the finite element method by using the Abaqus standard code. The found results, in a satisfactory agreement with cutting heat energy balance, are compared to experimental measurements and analytical models reported in the literature.
