Purpose: The purpose of this article is to discuss the method of determining the mathematical model used for calculating the amount of emulsion reaching directly the grinding zone during the hob sharpening process. Design/methodology/approach: The mathematical model, in the form of a multiple regression function, was determined based on the acceptance and rejection method. The data for the calculations was obtained by conducting numerical simulations of fluid flow in the Ansys CFX software. Findings: A mathematical model enables calculating the amount of efficient expenditure of emulsion reaching directly the zone of contact between the grinding wheel and workpiece (hob cutter rake face) at various nozzle angle settings and different nominal expenditures of emulsion. The verification of the mathematical relationship confirmed its accuracy. Research limitations/implications: Further research should focus on the other types of grinding process and other types of cooling and lubricating fluids. Practical implications: The mathematical model enables a selection and application in the workshop and industrial practice of various variants of emulsion supply during the grinding of hob cutter rake face. Analysis of the multiple regression equation created on the basis of the acceptance and rejection method also allows predicting changes in the analyzed numerical model. Originality/value: The literature review has shown that no research of this type has been conducted with regard to analyses and optimisation of the grinding process during hob cutter sharpening. The results of this research are a novelty on a worldwide scale.

The grinding simulation system of ball-nose end mill rake face is developed based on the four axis linkage mathematical model using Solidworks and Visual Basic for Applications (VBA). Effects of grinding wheel diameter change due to wear on geometrical parameters of ball-nose end mill, such as ball-nose rake angle, column rake angle and edge strip width are investigated.

The mathematic model of rake face was set up for precise description on the rake face of end mill in grinding process, with its basis on the fillet of grinding wheel with six axes linkage movement and two attitude angles. The sectional drawing of rake face and three-dimensional entity were drawn based on the mathematic model in SolidWorks. At the same time, the discrete entity of rake face also set up based on the Boolean calculation. The sectional drawing of mathematic model and the discrete entity tallies with each other perfectly, which indicates the correctness about the mathematic model of rake face.

The grinding wheel-profile is mostly formed by adjusting the angle of cylindrical profile model when regrinding gear hob with the large helix flute. Repeat trial cutting is needed with this method, which results in low efficiency. In order to improve the efficiency of processing, a mathematical model of grinding wheel profile was establish in according to forming principle of the rake face of gear hob and accurately calculate grinding wheel-profile. A automatic programming system of calculating grinding wheel-profile and automatically generate NC code is developed with the developing tool of VC++.

In this paper, a new mathematical model and grinding method of ball-end milling cutter are proposed, based on the orthogonal spiral cutting edge curve. The movements of grinding wheel and ball-end milling cutter are presented while grinding rake face. In order to grind conveniently and avoid interference, a conical wheel is also designed and employed to grind the rake face of ball-end milling cutter on a grinder. In order to improve the machining characteristics of ball-end milling cutter, the model of rake face with equal rake angle is established. The software of ball-end milling cutter is developed to design and optimize different shapes of rake face. Furthermore, the simulation analysis on rake face with equal rake angle is carried out to confirm the validation of the mathematical models.

The traditional cutting tools grinding reveals inexact tool flutes that altered the tool strength and affect the chip evacuation capabilities. Moreover, the normal rake angles are neither exact nor varying smoothly on the rake face along the cutting edge. Adopting the rake face grinding process, the wheel shape and path are optimized using GODLIKE scheme in order to grind the tool flutes with exact helical and normal rake angles while keeping close matching to the designed flutes. A tapered ball-end mill is considered in this study due to its extensive role in five-axis sculpture surfaces machining. With this approach proposed, a simple grinding wheel replaces the complex wheels commonly used, and the deviation between the designed and the generated flutes reveals less than 4 % of the tool minor radius. Beside all, a relationship between the radial and the normal rake angles are established.

A design-analysis and simulation approach of complex ball-end cutter was proposed by using computer graphics and OpenGL control in this paper. The mathematical models of rake face and flank face of a complex ball-end cutter were built as the simulation condition. A computer-aided design and simulation processing system of complex tool was presented through pre-modeling OpenGL control. Some 3D simulation models of complex ball-end cutter including spiral cylinder, ball-head (including rake face, chip groove, first flank face and second flank face) and grinding wheel were created respectively. According to mathematical models and VC++ software platform, transformation and machining animation simulations of ball-end cutter were designed and realized visually using OpenGL control interface technique. The results of Three-dimensional design and simulation will offer sufficient theory foundation for virtually manufacturing ball-end cutter.
