Residual Stress Modeling –
Reliable Reduction of Tensile Residual Stress for New
Cutter Technology
Finite Elemental Analysis (FEA) is used to model the
three dimensional residual stress state in Stratapax
cutters. Using FEA, Diamond Innovations is able to create
a numerical matrix solution, which maps physical properties,
such as stress and strain of the material, at various
locations within the cutter. The stress and strain can
then be optimized using specific design features built
into the cutter. The use of integrated design and FEA
has allowed us to develop new cutter technologies with
improved performance.
