Forces of the manufacturing process

If I want to see the forces obtained by the manufacturing process, is simulation the only option? Or is there an option to do it in the manufacturing section? If not, how can I simulate a tube inner parting operation?

There are no force calculations available in the MFG workspace, you'd have to do it all in the Simulation environment.

And to simulate the inner parting process (rotating the cutting tool) in a tube, how can I simulate it, wanting to obtain as a result the cutting forces of the process. I have tried with the prescribed rotation (angle) 360º and having as rigid solids the tube to cut and a loose rectangular which would be the simplification of the cutting tool. But the simulation obtained is not correct, it simulates that the rectangle is compressed and expanded, when this is not defined. Can you tell me if there is another way to simulate it or the mistake I am making?

I honestly haven't a clue, this is all well outside my knowledge. I will move this thread to Design Forum, perhaps the folks there might have a better idea.
