Abstract

The shape of commercial dovetail joints, which is machined with precut system, is not suitable for machining. This form has the disadvantage that cannot be machined in a single pass. In this paper, we proposed a variant of the weaknesses of its shape. Conducted shear tests and tensile test, we discussed the relationship between the shape and the strength properties. In addition, we compared the performance of the experimental values with the calculated value by the current design equations.
