Combining the machining process simulation on UG NX software and the mathematically analysis, a new solving method for the tooth crest curve equation of spiral bevel gears is proposed in this paper. The steps are as follows:1) Establishing the gear blank cone equation in the original coordinate system; 2) Finding the gear convex and concave profile equations in the new coordinate system; 3) Integrating the original coordinate system and the new one through geometric transformation and then deducing the tooth crest curve equations on both sides. The equations will help calculate the cutter’s position and pose in addendum chamfering process, with the chamfer automation achieved.

Based on Virtual Numerical Control machining system (VNC), a new method of Augmented Numerical Control machining system (ANC) which aims at the realization of NC machining process simulation in real machining environment is put forward. The System inputs continuous video images of real NC processing environment through camera to identify and locate the major machining and positioning parts of real machine in the image stream. And the virtual parts of VNC will be matched to the corresponding real ones of real machining system to achieve the registration of ANC. The NC system drives the virtual machining models for processing through a real machine. On the other hand, the actual running information of CNC machine are imported into the ANC system to drive some models of process variables such as cutting force, material removal rate, chip shape, tool temperature, cutting tool wear. ANC provides the platform to integrate the geometry and physical simulation based on actual information from real CNC machining environment.

Abstract Cutter-workpiece engagement (CWE) is the instantaneous contact geometry between the cutter and the in-process workpiece during machining. It plays an important role in machining process simulation and directly affects the calculation of the predicted cutting forces and torques. The difficulty and challenge of CWE determination come from the complexity due to the changing geometry of in-process workpiece and the curved tool path of cutter movement, especially for multi-axis milling. This paper presents a new method to determine the CWE for general milling processes. To fulfill the requirement of generality, which means for any cutter type, any in-process workpiece shape, and any tool path even with self-intersections, all the associated geometries are to be modeled as triangle meshes. The involved triangle-to-triangle intersection calculations are carried out by an effective method in order to realize the multiple subtraction Boolean operations between the tool and the workpiece mesh models and to determine the CWE. The presented method has been validated by a series of case studies of increasing machining complexity to demonstrate its applicability to general milling processes. Highlights A new method to determine cutter-workpiece engagement geometry in milling. Applicable to general milling processes: all cutter types, in-process workpiece shapes and tool paths containing even self-intersections. Results validated by a series of case studies of increasing machining complexity.

Model representation of workpiece in machining process simulation does directly influence on simulation accuracy and efficiency. The algorithm to acquire cutting width and cutting depth based on quadtree-array representation is discussed in this paper. In milling process simulation, workpiece is represented with quadtree-array and the cutting width and cutting depth are predicted real-time. The results of controlled simulation shows that the predicted cutting depth is accordance with that of the designed and the predicted cutting width is close to that of the designed within accuracy of half a discretization interval.
