Cutting Path

Abstract The optimal tool path for NC milling of a sculptured surface is given on cross sections of the surface, which extends the application of contour tool path from 2 dimensional milling to 3-axis and 5-axis milling. The cutting speed in rough cutting is the main objective of the optimal path. The contour tool path on cross sections of the surface can generate the rough cutting path in high speed without excessive cutting force, chatter and heavy wear of the cutting tool. Also, the path can be expanded to 3 -axis and 5-axis milling for machining of complicated surfaces.

This paper reports the stress distribution inside the workpiece under ultrasonic vibration cutting (UVC) condition. Many researchers have reported the improvement of tool wear, burr generation and surface integrity by reduction of time-averaged cutting force under UVC condition. However general dynamometers have an insufficient frequency band to observe the processing phenomena caused by UVC. In this paper, stress distribution inside the workpiece during UVC was observed by combining the flash light emission synchronized with ultrasonically vibrating cutting tool and the photoelastic method. Instantaneous stress distribution during UVC condition was observed. Because UVC induced an intermittent cutting condition, the stress distribution changed periodically and disappeared when the tool leaved from the workpiece. It was found that instantaneous maximum cutting force during UVC condition was smaller than quasi-static cutting force during conventional cutting when the cutting speed was less than 500 mm/min.

Tool life and the rationality of cutting parameter setting are evaluated directly by cutting force. In order to predict cutting force, and then to optimize the tooth cutting condition for dry high-speed spiral bevel and hypoid gear cutting, this study has established a 2D cutting FEM simulation platform by using DEFORM-2D based on the 2D orthogonal slot milling experiment. Through the platform, using the method of combining single-factor experiment and multi-factor orthogonal experiment, this study has explored the influence of cutting/tool parameters on cutting force in the dry high-speed cutting process of 20CrMnTi spiral bevel and hypoid gear (face hobbing dry cutting process). The results show that from high degree to low degree, the influence of each parameter on cutting force is as follows: feed > cutting speed > relief angle(P.A.side) >blade rake angle, and the influence of the first three parameters is significant, the influence of blade rake angle is not significant; the optimized condition for dry high-speed spiral bevel and hypoid gear cutting is suggested to be: the cutting speed is 300 m/mim, the feed is 0.06 mm/r, the blade rake angle is 14° and the relief angle(P.A.side) is 10°; the cutting edge can be honed moderately, but the hone radius is not bigger than 0.1 mm.

In this paper, on the aim of control the fluctuation of cutting force, five kind of commonly used tool paths which were used to milling curved surface were selected to study the optical cutting tool path of high speed milling al-alloy, the results showed that in order to make the fluctuation of cutting force smallest, the tool path which had the more even line spacing along the Machining surface should be chosen according to the characteristic of the Machining surface. In order to minimize the cutting force, the direction with the biggest surface curvature should be chosen, and the direction with the smallest change rate of the surface curvature should be chosen in order to minimize the fluctuations of cutting force.

High-speed milling tests were performed on vol. (5%-8%) TiCp/TC4 composite in the speed range of 50-250 m/min using PCD tools to nvestigate the cutting temperature and the cutting forces. The results showed that radial depth of cut and cutting speed were the two significant influences that affected the cutting forces based on the Taguchi prediction. Increasing radial depth of cut and feed rate will increase the cutting force while increasing cutting speed will decrease the cutting force. Cutting force increased less than 5% when the reinforcement volume fraction in the composites increased from 0% to 8%. Radial depth of cut was the only significant influence factor on the cutting temperature. Cutting temperature increased with the increasing radial depth of cut, feed rate or cutting speed. The cutting temperature for the titanium composites was 40-90 °C higher than that for the TC4 matrix. However, the cutting temperature decreased by 4% when the reinforcement's volume fraction increased from 5% to 8%.

Diamond Wire Saw

In the field of underwater emergency maintenance, submarine pipeline cutting is generally performed by a diamond wire saw. The process, in essence, involves diamond grits distributed on the surface of the beads cutting X56 pipeline steel bit by bit at high speed. To find the effect of the different parameters (cutting speed, coefficient of friction and depth of cut) on cutting force, the finite element (FEA) method and response surface method (RSM) were adopted to obtain cutting force prediction models. The former was based on 64 simulations; the latter was designed according to DoE (Design of Experiments). Confirmation experiments were executed to validate the regression models. The results indicate that most of the prediction errors were within 10%, which were acceptable in engineering. Based on variance analyses of the RSM models, it could be concluded that the depth of the cut played the most important role in determining the cutting force and coefficient the of friction was less influential. Despite making little direct contribution to the cutting force, the cutting speed is not supposed to be high for reducing the coefficient of friction. The cutting force models are instructive in manufacturing the diamond beads by determining the protrusion height of the diamond grits and the future planning of the cutting parameters.

Tool Surface

In CNC machining, machining errors are usually caused by some of the sources such as cutting tool deflection, cutting tool wear, machine tool vibration, improper coolant/lubrication, and negative thermal effect. To increase product accuracy, much research has been carried out on the prediction of machining errors. However, in milling of sculptured surface parts, due to their curved shapes, the geometries of cutting tools do not match the parts’ surfaces well if the tools cut along the tool paths on the surfaces in a point-to-point way. As a consequence, machining error is inevitable, even if there is no other source of error in ideal machining conditions. To predict machining errors caused by this tool-surface mismatch, several methods have been proposed. Some of them are simple, and some represent the geometry of machined surfaces using cutter-swept surfaces. But none of these methods is accurate and practical. In this research work, a generic, geometric approach to predicting machining errors caused by the tool-surface mismatch is proposed for 3-axis sculptured surface milling. First, a new geometric model of the furrow formed by an APT tool moving between two neighboring cutter contact (CC) points is built. Second, the mathematical formula of cutting circle envelopes is derived. Then an algorithm for calculating machining errors in each tool motion is provided. Finally, this new approach is applied to two practical parts for the accurate machining-error predictions, and these predictions are then compared to the inaccurate predictions made by two established methods to demonstrate the advantages of this approach. This approach can be used in tool path planning for high precision machining of sculptured surface parts.

Distribution Of Stress

As cutting tool penetrates into workpiece, stress waves is induced and propagates in the workpiece. This paper aims to propose a two-dimensional discrete element method to analyze the stress waves effects during high speed milling. The dependence of the stress waves propagation characteristics on rake angle and cutting speed was studied. The simulation results show that the energy distribution of stress waves is more concentrated near the tool tip as the rake angle or the cutting speed increases. In addition, the density of initial cracks in the workpiece near the cutting tool increases when the cutting speed is higher. The high speed milling experiments indicate that the chip size decreases as the cutting speed increases, which is just qualitatively consistent with the simulation.

AbstractThe cutting force components and the cutting moment on the cutting tool were measured during the orthogonal machining of ice with cutting tools inclined at negative rake angles. The variables included the cutting depth (< 1 mm), the cutting speed (0.01 ms−1to 1 ms−1), and the rake angles (–15° to –60°). Results of the experiments showed that the cutting force components were approximately independent of cutting speed. The resultant cutting force on the tool was in a direction approximately normal to the cutting face of the tool. The magnitude of the resultant force increased with the negative rake angle. Photographs of ice-chip formation revealed continuous and segmented chips at different cutting depths.

Aisi 4340

The cutting performance of cutting tools in high-speed machining (HSM) is an important factor restricting the machined surface integrity of the workpiece. The HSM of AISI 4340 is carried out by using coated tools with TiN/TiCN/TiAlN multi-coating, TiAlN + TiN coating, TiCN + NbC coating, and AlTiN coating, respectively. The cutting performance evaluation of the coated tools is revealed by the chip morphology, cutting force, cutting temperature, and tool wear. The results show that the serration and shear slip of the chips become more clear with the cutting speed. The lower cutting force and cutting temperature are achieved by the TiN/TiCN/TiAlN multi-coated tool. The flank wear was the dominant wear form in the milling process of AISI 4340. The dominant wear mechanisms of the coated tools include the crater wear, coating chipping, adhesion, abrasion, and diffusion. In general, a TiN/TiCN/TiAlN multi-coated tool is the most suitable tool for high-speed milling of AISI 4340, due to the lower cutting force, the lower cutting temperature, and the high resistance of the element diffusion.
