Computer Design of a Minimum Vibration Face Milling Cutter Using an Improved Cutting Force Model

An improved cutting force model is integrated in the design of a minimum vibration face milling cutter. The cutting force of a blade is approximated by a rectangular pulse whose height is governed by the blade spacing. Specific examples of a special purpose and a general purpose cutter are given and their performances are evaluated.

Operation Status

Tool eccentricity has a significant impact on machining quality, accuracy, and operation status of machine tool. It is difficult to accurately identify tool eccentricity. In this paper, the mathematical models of instantaneous undeformed cutting thickness and cutting force considering tool eccentricity are determined by theoretical method. Based on the model, the identification method for eccentricity parameters is proposed, and the eccentricity parameters of disc milling cutter is identified. According to the identified parameters, the cutting force is verified. The results show that most of the values of measured cutting forces are greater than the predicted ones considering tool eccentricity. In the future, it is necessary to establish a new cutting force model considering both tool eccentricity and tool wear.

Nonlinear Least Squares Method

A method is developed to choose the blade spacing for a face-milling cutter that will minimize vibration. When the dynamic frequency response of a machine-tool-workpiece system is known, a special-purpose cutter can be designed to minimize the relative cutter-workpiece vibration for a particular cutting speed. When the dynamic system response is unknown the design method is limited to a general-purpose cutter to avoid resonant excitation over a broad frequency range. A nonlinear least-squares method is used to choose the blade angles for both cases. Experimental results using a general-purpose cutter with unequal blade spacing showed an appreciable reduction in noise and vibration compared to a similar cutter with equal blade spacing.

High Speed Milling

High-speed milling (HSM) has advantages in high productivity high precision and low production cost. Thus it can be widely used in the manufacture industry. However, when the speed of spindle-tool reaches a higher speed range, the gyroscopic effect will become an important part of its stable milling. In this paper, a dynamics model of HSM system was proposed considering the influence of gyroscopic moment due to high rotating speed of end milling. Finite element model (FEM) is used to model the dynamics of a spindle-milling system. It obtains the trajectory of central point in face milling with considering gyroscopic effects through the dynamics model at high speeds. Then the cutting force model will be corrected by the trajectory of face milling. So it can provide a basis for stability prediction of high speed milling.
