Chatter vibration in machining processes is often found in cutting processes which will decrease the machining efficiency and the surface quality of the products. Chatter is a relative vibration of the cutting tool and workpiece caused by the fluctuation of cutting force that is concerned to be a self-excited vibration. The variable Helix Angle Cutting tool which has pitch angle variation will also inflict different tooth passing frequencies on the flute that stand contiguous and trim the resonance frequency. This research aims to compare chatter vibrations that occurred between Normal Helix Angle and Variable Helix Angle cutting tool based on spectrum analysis on cutting parameter variety (depth of cut; rotation speed; feed rate milling). The outcome is spectrum analysis can detect the chatter phenomenon, measure the natural frequency (38-42 Hz), and also compare chatter vibrations between two tools appropriately.

Chatter vibration in cutting processes usually leads to surface finish degradation, tool damage, cutting noise, energy loss, etc. Self-excited vibration particularly seems to be a problem that is easily increased to large vibration. The regenerative effect is considered as one of the causes of chatter vibration. Although the chatter vibration occurs in various types of processing, the end-milling is a typical process that seems to cause the chatter vibration due to a lack of rigidity of one or more parts of the machine tools, cutting tool, and work-piece. The aim of our research is to propose a simple method to control chatter vibration of the end-milling process on the basis of a coupling model integrating the related various elements. In this study, hammering tests were carried out to measure the transfer function of a machine tool and cutting tool system, which seems to cause vibration. By comparing these results, finite elemental method (FEM) analysis models were constructed. Additionally, cutting experiments were carried out to confirm the chatter vibration frequencies in end-milling with a machining center. In the hammering tests, impulse hammer and multiple acceleration pick-ups are connected to a multi-channel FFT analyzer and estimate the natural frequencies and natural vibration modes. A simplified FEM model is proposed by circular section stepped beam elements on the basis of the hammering test results, considering a coupling effect. In comparisons of the calculated results and hammering test results, the vibration modes are in good agreement. As a result, the proposed model accurately predicts the chatter vibration considering several effects among the relating elements in end-milling. Moreover, it can be seen that the chatter vibration is investigated from a viewpoint of the integrating model of the end-milling process.

Chatter vibration frequently occurs in ball end milling. If the characteristics of the cutting tool system and cutting process are known, chatter stability in ball end milling can be evaluated. Hence, in this paper, a chatter-avoidance strategy based on a regenerative chatter theory is proposed to prevent the occurrence of chatter. This consists of a simulation of chatter stability and cutting condition control. When the characteristics of a vibration system change, this chatter-avoidance strategy cannot cope with it. Therefore, another chatter-avoidance control algorism that changes cutting parameters on a machining center is proposed. This can adapt to the change in the characteristics of the vibration systemduring cutting. The effectiveness of the two chatter-avoidance methods proposed is examined through experiments.

Abstract Regeneration is a major mechanism to generate self-excited chatter vibration in cutting. Variable helix cutters are useful to suppress regeneration. Although simultaneous optimization of pitch/helix angles is significantly important, there is no practical design methodology to optimize the variable helix cutter geometry so far. In order to attain robust regeneration suppression, a new design method of variable helix cutters is proposed in the present study. The pitch angles vary along axial position due to disagreement of the helix angles. Because of this nature, regeneration can be suppressed in a robust manner with respect to changes of chatter frequency and/or spindle speed. The proposed design satisfies robustness against axial depth of cut variations. Optimal pitch/helix angles are formulated on the basis of distinctive relationship between the cutter geometry and “Regeneration Factor (RF)”, which is an index to quantify influence of regeneration in the process. Through analytical investigations, it is confirmed that regeneration can be suppressed effectively by the proposed method, resulting in significant chatter stability increase. Low immersion milling experiment verified significant stability and robustness of the proposed variable helix design.

Machining performance is often limited by chatter vibration at the tool-workpiece interface. Chatter is a type of machining self-excited vibration which originates from the variation in cutting forces and the flexibility of the machine tool structure. Machining chatter is an inherently nonlinear phenomenon that is affected by many parameters such as cutting conditions, tool geometry, cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut, overhang length of tool, clamping condition of workpiece. This study presents experimental approach for investigation of effects of various cutting tool geometry on the onset of chatter. In turning process, measured cutting force signal and triaxial accelerometer signal was used to know the characteristics of chatter vibration. The static and dynamic component of cutting forces reflect onset of chatter vibration. Proper selection of tooling is an important parameter in terms of chatter elimination in machining.

<span><p align="LEFT"><span><span style="font-family: Times New Roman;" face="Times New Roman">Titanium and its alloys have been experiencing extensive development over the past few decades. They have found wide applications in the aerospace, biomedical and automotive industries owing to their good strength-to-weight ratio and high corrosion resistance. Machining performance is often limited by chatter vibrations at the tool-workpiece interface. Chatter is an abnormal tool behaviour which is one of the most critical problems in the machining process and must be avoided to improve the dimensional accuracy and surface quality of the finished product. This research aims at investigating chatter trends in the end milling process and to identify machine parameters that have effects on chatter during machining. The machine parameters investigated include axial feed rate, spindle revolute speed and depth of cut. In this research, experimental data was collected using sensors to analyze the existence of chatter vibrations on each processing condition. This research showed that the combination of the machine parameters, feed rate and spindle speed within certain proportions has an influence on machine vibrations during end milling and if not managed properly, may lead to chatter. </span></span></p> <p align="LEFT"></p>

The use of variable pitch or helix cutters is a known means to prevent chatter vibration during milling. In this article, an alternative method based on an improved semi-discretization method is proposed to predict the stability of variable pitch or variable helix milling. In order to consider the effect of distributed system delays attributed to helix variation, the average delays were calculated for each flute after the engaged cutting flutes were divided into a finite number of axial elements. Meanwhile, a straightforward integral force model, which can consider the piecewise continuous regions of the cutting that describe the helix angle is used to determine the cutting force. Through comparisons with prior works, time-domain simulations, and cutting tests, the proposed approach was verified. In addition, the method was applied to examine the effect of tool geometries on stability trends. Several phenomena for certain combinations of pitch and helix angles are shown and explained.

Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastics (CFRP) have outstanding lightweight material characteristics and tensile strength. The use of CFRP in aerospace industry has been successfully implemented and is expected to grow in the future. However, the mechanical properties of CFRP are affected by differences in the distribution and orientation of the carbon fibers and their adhesion to the binding material. CFRP shows intense anisotropy in strength of carbon fiber depending on its mechanical properties and the state of the carbon fiber orientation. Therefore, the tool life shortest and the surface finish quality of the material becomes unstable and eventually difficult to cut. This paper presents the effect on carbon fiber orientation and helix angle with CFRP cutting characteristics by end milling. Here, three types of orientations weremachined by straight type end mills and constant cutting conditions with a cutting speed 70 m/min, a feed rate 0.056 mm/tooth and 3 mm depth of cut. Our results showed that the tool helix angle 0° gave a better surface finish than the other tools, irrespective of the fiber orientation. The helix angle is greatly affected by the exposure of the fibers from the surface. Axial force (Fz) is negligible quantity for helix angle 0°, and cutting force is low. The carbon fiber orientation of 45° and -45° has exfoliation-like dimples.

Demand for highly productive machining of thin-walled workpieces has been growing in the aerospace industry. Workpiece vibration is a critical issue that could limit the productivity of such machining processes. This study proposes a machining process for thin-walled workpieces that aims to reduce the workpiece vibration during the machining process. The workpiece compliance is measured using an on-machine measurement system to obtain the cutting conditions and utilize the same for suppressing the vibration. The on-machine measurement system consists of a shaker with a force sensor attached on the machine tool spindle, and an excitation control system which is incorporated within the machine tool’s numerical control (NC). A separate sensor to obtain the workpiece displacement is not required for the estimation of the displacement. The system is also capable of automatic measurement at various measurement points because the NC controls the positioning and the preloading of the shaker. The amplitude of the workpiece vibration is simulated using the measured compliance to obtain the cutting conditions for suppressing the vibration. An end milling experiment was conducted to verify the validity of the proposed process. The simulations with the compliance measurement using the developed system were compared to the results of a conventional impact test. The comparison showed that the spindle rotation speed for suppressing the vibration could be successfully determined; but, the axial depth of cut was difficult to be determined because the simulated vibration amplitude was larger than that found in the experimental result. However, this can be achieved if the amplitude is calibrated by one machining trial.
