*About rake angle.

1- The strength of tool depends upon this angle.

2- The rake angle required to machine brass by HSS tool is 0 deg.

3- Back rake angle-the angle by which the face of tool is inclined towards back. Back rake angle for ductile materials-10 to 15 deg.

4- Side rake angle-the angle by which the face of tool is inclined towards side. it is provided on tools to control chip flow.

5- The negative rake is usually provided on cemented carbide tools.
cemented carbide tools are poor in shear and tips are produced powder metallurgy.
