    If anyone is interested in prediction of cutting forces in aluminum milling I would recommend to read the article:
    "A comparison of analytical cutting force models" published by WIAS
    There you can find very simple models to compute cutting forces for aluminum end milling as a function of chip thickness and axial depth of cut.
    Here I try to resume Kinzle-Victor model for predicting forces for end milling Aluminum
    The Kinzle-Victor model predicts Fi(Fr,Ft) tangential Ft and radial Fr milling cutting forces
    Fi, according Kinzle-Victor model, can be predicted through this formula:

    Fi(Fr,Ft)=Ki(Kr,Kt)*a*h^(1-mi(mr,mt)) where

    “Fi” is force in N,
    “a” is the load per tooth in (mm) ,
    “h” is the depht of cut in (mm) and
    “Ki” and “ mi” are constants that depend of “h” values

    For end milling aluminum the values of constants Ki(Kr,kt) and mi(mr,mt) are:

    Kr=39 for (0.001 < h <0.01) ;
    Kr=99 for (0.01 <= h <0.1) ;
    Kr=298 for (0.1 <= h <1)

    Kt=336 for (.001 < h <.01)
    Kt=493 for (0.01 <= h <0.1) ;
    Kt=667 for (0.1 <= h <1)

    mr= 1 for (0.001 < h <0.01);
    mr=0.8 for (0.01 <= h <0.1);
    mr=0.32 for (0.1 <= h <1)

    mt=0.53 for (0.001 < h <0.01) ;
    mt=0.45 for (0.01 <= h <0.1);
    mt=0.32 for 0.1<= h <1

    For example for a cutting depht of 0.5 mm and a load per tooth of 0.1 mm the forces for aluminum are:
    Ft=Kt*a*h^(1-mt)=493*0.5*0.1^1-0.45=69 N
    F=Kr*a*h^(1-mr)=99*0.5*0.1^1-0.8=31 N

    Model computes tangential and radial forces located at xy plane but doesn’t compute axial force at z axis and I don’t know if are average or peak forces
