Due to complex cutting edge profile of an involute cutter, calculations of chip width and consequently cutting force are quite problematical. This article presents a mechanistic approach in the prediction of cutting force components arising in the course of gear tooth cutting by an involute form cutter. To permit calculation of chip width (and so cutting forces), a discrete model is utilized and cutting force components are then derived using Kienzle approach. Moreover, several experiments are performed under different cutting conditions to prove the effectiveness and accuracy of the used method. The results have revealed that cutting force components can be predicted in form gear tooth cutting with a significant accuracy.
