Abstract The boring bar is used to provide smooth, accurate cuts in materials. However, when the length to diameter (L/D) ratio of the boring bar becomes large, low-frequency vibration, or chatter, results. Initial attempts to control this unwanted vibration with an active absorber have been successful, but in some configurations problems remain. In this paper, algorithms for flexible structure identification widely used in the aerospace industry are applied to a number of boring bar setups to identify the vibration characteristics of each system. Emphasis is placed on one class of methods which includes the Eigensystem Realization Algorithm (ERA), developed for identification of flexible space structures. The resulting identified characteristics are compared and contrasted. Results are also compared to finite element analysis predictions. From the current identification results, implications for chatter control are discussed, including the possibility of nonlinear modal interactions.

A major problem in the active control of the boring process is developing a practical method of providing small-amplitude tool-tip positioning. The main thrust of the underlying research work is the design, development and evaluation of a new actuation concept for active control of the boring operation. The actuation concept was implemented using a special boring bar with two internal longitudinal hydraulic chambers. A pressure difference between these two chambers provides the driving force to create the desired tool-tip motion. Using a measure of the dynamic cutting force, the controlled boring bar system was successful in making improvements over the uncontrolled boring bar’s cutting performance in terms of regenerative chatter control. The cutting tests used in this thesis were plunge cuts in mild steel. The controlled level of improvement was smaller than was anticipated. The problem was considered not a fault of the actuation scheme, but a result of a non-optimal combination of the servovalve, measurement system and controller. Further work in these areas should yield considerably improved results using the new actuation concept.

For rotating-tool machining, such as milling, line boring, and cylinder boring, the tool rotation causes the machining force on each tooth to rotate repetitively relative to the inertial coordinate frame. This is quite different than stationary-tool machining, such as turning or boring with a stationary boring bar, in which the force directions are fixed relative to the inertial frame. Although the subject of stability analysis for rotating tools has been studied extensively in milling, the process is intermittent and hence time varying, which leads to analysis methods that are either analytically approximate or employ time-domain simulation. In this paper nonintermittent machining processes that employ a rotating tool are modeled and analyzed in the rotational coordinates both to simplify the stability analysis and to permit an exact solution. Using rotating-bar boring to illustrate, the analytical results show that the stability limits for boring with a rotating boring bar are quite different from those for boring with a stationary boring bar, and the experimental validation is also provided. Furthermore, the results show a discrepancy to exist between the predicted stability limits for the exact and approximate solutions, especially at low spindle speeds. In both cases an explanation is provided based on the analysis presented.

This study investigates the chattering stability of the composite boring bar with a constrained damping layer during the deep-hole boring process in depth. Based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory, the regenerative chattering linear kinetic model of the composite boring bar with a constrained damping layer was established, and the computational formulas of the rotating speed of the spindle and the corresponding limit cutting depth were derived. By analyzing the chattering stability, the cutting stability lobe curves of the composite boring bar with a constrained damping layer were plotted so as to reveal the effects of the materials of both base layer and constrained layer, the ply angle, the damping composite structure (free or constrained damping structure) and the thickness of various layers on the chattering stability of the boring bar. Through the analysis of dynamic stiffness, the chatter stability analysis theory of a composite boring bar with a constrained damping layer is verified.

Seen as a cantilever beam with distributed mass system, the boring bar model and its state -space equation is built. On the basis of the dynamic model, a stability diagram of the boring system of the type of regenerative chatter is obtained. According to the stability diagram of the system, we get main analysis and comparison of the system stability near the fundamental frequency. In this paper, piezoelectric smart flutter suppression is carried out on a boring system with distributed mass, which improved the stability of the boring system
