The Surface Roughness Modeling on Turn-Milling Process and Analysis of Influencing Factors
Surface roughness plays an important role in product quality and has received serious attention for many years. It has formulated an important design feature in many situations such as parts subject to fatigue loads、precision fits、fastener holes and aesthetic requirements. In addition to tolerances, surface roughness imposes one of the most critical constraints for the selection of machines and cutting parameters in process planning. This paper focuses on developing a geometric model of turn-milling process in order to predict the surface roughness effectively so that we can offer reference or consulting in the practical machining process. The surface roughness model takes into account both cutting parameters and movement parameters such as cutter radius feed per tooth 、 cutting speed 、number of teeth 、cutters' eccentricity、 depth of cutting、spindle rotating speed and so on. Through this model, we discussed the influencing effects of various cutting parameters on the surface roughness and analyze which one has the most important impact.
