                The chip is produced in the form of small pieces. These types of chips are obtained while machining brittle material like cast iron.

                Chips produce for hard and brittle material are known as discontinuous chips as cast iron is a hard and brittle material therefore chips are discontinuous.

                What is meaning of Segmental chips ?

                For the materials like cast iron and bronze, chips break up into small segments due to the property of having brittleness.

                Since it is brittle material, so chips generated will not be continuous formation.

                Segmental chips are formed continuously.

                Cast iron is brittle material. For this reason it breaks quickly.

                Ferrous material critical structure properties Crystal structure not machine smooth at high speed machining for cast iron so during machine process chip form continuous Segment.

                As cast iron is a brittle material the plastic deformation takes place quickly so it breaks.

                Segmental chips are the discontinuous chips. During machining of hard materials like cast iron, the chip formed doesn't have the energy (machining forces) absorbing capacity. So they immediately transfer the energy in the form of crack to the end of the chip thickness resulting in small/discontinuous/segmental chips.
