A finite element model based on Abaqus/Explicit is built. Micro cutting mechanism of Al7075 with different cutting depth is simulated and analyzed. The simulation results show that if the cutting depth is more than 10μm, the chip is a kind of continuous curl. If the cutting depth is less than 10μm, the chip is a kind of feathery squeeze debris. When the cutting depth is very small (3μm), the shape of chips is just like discontinuous wrinkle. By contrasting the simulation results of cutting force with its theoretical values, they have the same result. The model of the chip prediction could achieve ideal simulation results.
