Machining

the angle between a cutting tool's rake face and a reference plane, governing chip flow, cutting forces and heat.

In machining, the rake angle is the angle between a cutting tool’s rake face and a reference plane, taken as positive or negative, that governs how the chip flows over the tool, the cutting forces, and the heat generated; a higher positive rake cuts more freely but weakens the edge. Kalpakjian and Schmid’s Manufacturing Engineering and Technology defines tool geometry and the role of the rake angle in metal cutting. The referent is a geometric parameter of a cutting edge, distinct from a stage’s slope or a structural lineation’s pitch.[1]

Unit
The rake angle in degrees, positive or negative, at the tool face
Recovery means
Not applicable
Measured by
Specified in degrees in the tool geometry and checked against chip formation and cutting forces

Structural geology

the angle a linear feature makes with the strike line, measured within the plane containing it, such as fault striations.

In structural geology, the rake (or pitch) of a linear feature is the angle it makes with the horizontal strike line, measured within the plane that contains it, for example the rake of slickenside striations on a fault surface, which records the direction of slip. Fossen’s Structural Geology defines rake and distinguishes it from plunge, which is measured in the vertical plane. The referent is an angle locating a lineation inside a geological surface, sharing only its name with a stage rake or a tool’s rake angle.[2]

Unit
The angle of the lineation from strike, measured within the containing plane
Recovery means
Not applicable
Measured by
Measured in degrees from the strike line, within the plane of the structure
