ABSTRACT
Broach tool is a multi point cutting tool consisting a bar having surface containing a series of cutting teeth or edges which
are gradually increase in size from the starting or entering and to the rear end. Broaches are used for machining either
internal or external surface (i.e sizing of holds and cutting of serrations, straight or helical planes, gun rifling and key ways).
In this work a broach cutting tool is design to perform internal splines of synchro shuttle transmission for flange coupling.
In the present work Broach cutting tool is going to be designed to generate internal splines for Synchro shuttle transmission
which is suitable for Jacob Cycerll Byford 3D TURBO with the help of vertical broaching machine. A ‘C’ program will be
generated to identify various parameters of broach tool. A sophisticated ANSYS 11 (FEM) package shall be used to analyze
the displacements and stresses present in broach cutting tool. All the stress distributions and displacements shall plotted
against rise or tooth for different pitch and rake angles.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
Broaching is a method of removing metal by a tool
that has successively higher cutting edges in a fixed
path and each tooth removes a predetermined amount
of material.
Broaching has a wide range of
applications with several advantages over other
machining processes.
Broaching is rapid and
efficient because both roughing and finishing can be
done in a single pass, close tolerances are added
advantages of the process. Except in the case of gear,
broach is always moves forward in a straight line.
Hence the Broaching surface must be parallel to the
axis of tool travel.
In the present work, design and analysis is carried out
for broach tool to perform internal splines of Synchro
shuttle transmission for flange coupling in Jacob
Cycerll Byford-3D TURBO. The Synchro shuttle
transmission coupling flange is assembled on the
pinion shaft of gear box over splines and the other
end of spigot is fixed to a universal joint. The flange
is used to transmit power from Gear Box to rear axile
through propeller shaft assemblies. Compared to
other machining operations, like slotting & shaping,
broaching operation attains better accuracy, surface
finish and productivity for generation of internal
splines.
The program is developed in ‘C’ Language for the
design of broach tool to obtain different parameters
like pitch, land, length of the tool, specific cutting
force & total broaching force for internal splines.
The program developed can be used to design any
type of the broaching tool for internal splines with
straight sides.
A sophisticated ANSYS 11 FEM package is used to
analyze the stresses developed in cutting tooth. The
forces obtained for various parameters are applied on
the tooth to analyze the stresses and deflections.
Material considered for broach tool is high speed
steel M2 type. The machine for performing the
broaching operation is taken for a capacity of 1200
mm stroke length and 16 tons pulling force.
2.0 BROACH TOOL DESIGN
When compared to other Cutting Tools for Instance a
milling cutter, a broach is many times costlier. Any
small error committed in the design of a milling
cutter or a turning tool may not lead to the total
IJAET/Vol. IV/ Issue I/Jan.-March., 2013/06-08
rejections of the part or the tool. At the most it may
result in reduced life or lesser productivity. But in
case of the Broaches such a mistake may result in the
breakage of the tool or rejection of the parts.
Therefore broach design is an activity demanding
sound experience and expertise.
Broach tool design consists of cutting elements, pull
end, rear end, front pilot, rear pilot, total length of the
tool, specific cutting force, force required for
broaching and strength of the tool.
2.1 Cutting Elements
The cutting elements of broach teeth are shown in
Figure.1. The face angle or hook angle () is
equivalent to the rake angle of single point tools and
depends upon the material to be cut, the back off
angle () is chosen independent of work material to
ensure good cutting conditions by reducing friction
between the tooth flank and the machined surface.
The land (g) provides the necessary strength for the
tooth the chip space with radius (r – Gullet) facilitates
formation of chips into convenient shape and
accommodate the trapped chips the distance P
between successive teeth is pitch, the difference in
height of successive teeth forms cut per tooth or rise
per tooth.

3.0 DESIGN PROCEDURE
After observing the work piece drawing relevant data
is as under:
Major Dia. D = 50.5 mm
Minor Dia. D = 43.5 mm
No. of splines S = 16
Spline width W = 5.0 + 0.01 mm
E-ISSN 0976-3945
The rake angles of tool for 12o, 15o and 18o and pitch
of 9.68 mm, 10.46 mm and 11.23 mm are considered
for various values of depth of Cut (rise / tooth), the
values of length of the tool over teeth, total length of
the tool, specific cutting force, total Broaching force
and load per tooth were recorded with the help of ‘C’
program and the results are tabulated.

5.0 CONCLUSIONS
• The variations of cutting force per tooth is
constant for different pitch values, for a
given rake-angle.
• The total Broaching force varies with pitch
value for a given rake angle due to the
variations in number of teeth in engagement.
• The stress plot against depth of cut shows
uniform increase of stresses, the stresses are
increasing with decreasing of rake angles
due to higher cutting forces.
• The deflection of the tooth is higher for
higher rake angle. This is because of the
reduction in included angle of the tooth.
• The rake angle influencing the total
broaching force and force on cutting tooth.
Hence very care should be taken while
resharpening the tooth tool to maintain the
designed rake angle on the profile of the
tooth.
