The Impact

During milling operation, the cutting forces will induce vibrations on both the cutting tool and the workpiece, which will affect the topography of the machined surface. Based on the Z-map representation of the workpiece, an improved model is presented to predicate the 3D surface topography along with the dynamic cutting forces during an end milling operation. A numerical approach is employed to solve the differential equations governing the dynamics of the milling system. The impact of cutting parameters such as the feedrate, the axial depth of cut and the dynamic characteristic of milling system on the surface topography is investigated by simulation. The all above can provide some instructive directions to the manufacturing engineers in determining the optimal cutting conditions of an end milling operation.

Feed Direction

In this paper, the effects of the variational combinations of cutter inclination angle in feed direction and the feed per tooth on the machined surface hardness were mainly concerned. The cutting forces transformed from the measured cutting forces in OXYZ and the SEM microstructures of the surface layer were analyzed to explore the generation condition of the hardness. Variations of the surface hardness are not apparent with the increment of feed per tooth with the identical other cutting parameters. Inclination angles in feed direction of approximately ranging from 10° to 15° and from 25° to 30°, which correspond to high surface hardness, are suggested to be applied in cutting process when high abrasive resistance is expected. While values of inclination angle approximately equal to 0° and 45° are prior to be chosen when high shock resistance performance is firstly expected. Optimization of the cutting parameters, which could offer guidance to the machining of sculptured surface concerning cutter inclination angle, was presented.

Material removal process for dies, moulds and additionally diverse aircraft parts can be made possible by the highspeed end milling operation. Devious cutting forces are created by the impact of various cutting parameters in course with high speed milling process. Due to this phenomenon the wear and chatter of tool can occur. Cutting force prediction is useful method to reduce the chatter occurrence during the machining of hardest materials. DEFORM 3D is an important simulation software which is used for the analysis of complicated metal removal processes. In this work, the tool insert was designed by Solid Works modelling software. The FEM simulation of high-speed end milling of Titanium-Vanadium based alloy was carried out in Deform 3D simulation software to obtain the cutting forces. The material behaviour was modelled with a classical constitutive material equation and was applied in the FEM code to predict the effective stress, strain, temperature and cutting forces towards the impact of cutting parameters. Analysis of variance is achieved to determine the impact of cutting forces with help of Taguchi method in Minitab-17. L16 orthogonal array was used to conduct the analysis of high speed end milling.

Milling Operation

Stainless steels are a group of difficult to machine work materials. The difficulty in machining stainless steels is manifested in high contact length and stresses, formation of serrated chips and development of chatter resulting in high tool wear rates and poor machined surface finish. The paper focuses on the performance of TiN coated-carbide inserts in machining stainless steel specimens in end milling operation performed on vertical machining centre (VMC). The performance of the tool is evaluated from the point of view of its wear intensity, mechanism of failure and generation and effect of chatter on tool wear and vice versa. The investigations were aimed at determining the effect of cutting parameters, specifically cutting speed, feed and depth of cut, on chatter amplitude, tool wear rate, mechanism of tool wear and using these data and machined surface roughness values from previous work to come up with recommended values of cutting parameters for semi-finish and finish end milling operation of stainless steel work materials. For recording vibration signals a dual channel portable signal analyzers was used and the signals were analyzed using Pulse Multi-analyzer version 4.2 software. Tool wear was measured using an optical microscope with digital readout capabilities along 3 axes. The tool wear mechanisms were studied under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results of the investigation show that acceleration amplitudes generally increase with cutting speed and the magnitude of tool flank wears. It has been also found that an increase in feed and depth of cut leads to higher acceleration amplitudes. The most common wear mechanisms observed during machining of stainless steel are attrition, micro and macro chipping of the tool at lower cutting speeds, and diffusion and mechanical failures due to intensive chatter at higher speeds. It has been also established that stable cutting speeds with relatively low tool wear intensity and satisfactory machined surface finish can be achieved through proper selection of cutting parameters. A table of recommended cutting conditions has been developed for almost chatter free machining with low tool wear intensity and satisfactory surface finish.

The Impact

In this chapter, the impact of cutting parameters (depth of cut, cutting speed, feed, flow, rake angle, lead angle) on cutting forces in the turning process with regard to ASTM B574 (Hastelloy C-22) material has been investigated. Variance analysis has been applied in order to determine the factors affecting the cutting forces. The optimization of the parameters affecting the surface roughness has been obtained using response surface methodology (RSM) based on the Taguchi orthogonal experimental design. The accuracy of the developed models required for the estimation of the force values (Fx, Fy, Fz) is quite successful. In this study, where the R2 value has been used as the criterion/measure, accuracy values of 93.35%, 95.03%, and 95.09% have been achieved for Fx, Fy, and Fz, respectively. As a result of the ANOVA analysis, the most effective parameters for Fx at a 95% confidence interval are depth of cut, feed rate, flow, and rake angle. The most effective parameter for Fy is depth of cut, while the most effective parameters for Fz are depth of cut, feed rate, and flow, respectively.

Tool Deflection

In this article, a new model of regenerative vibrations due to the deflection of the cutting tool in turning is proposed. The previous study reported chatter as a result of cutting a wavy surface of the previous cut. The proposed model takes into account cutting forces as the main factor of tool deflection. A cantilever beam model is used to establish a numerical model of the tool deflection. Three-dimensional finite element method is used to estimate the tool permissible deflection under the action of the cutting load. To analyze the system dynamic behavior, 1-degree-of-freedom model is used. MATLAB is used to compute the system time series from the initial value using fourth-order Runge–Kutta numerical integration. A straight hard turning with minimal fluid application experiment is used to obtain cutting forces under stable and chatter conditions. A single-point cutting tool made from high-speed steel is used for cutting. Experiment results showed that for the cutting parameters above 0.1mm/rev feed and [Formula: see text]mm depth of cut, the system develops fluctuations and higher chatter vibration frequency. Dynamic model vibration results showed that the cutting tool deflection induces chatter vibrations which transit from periodic, quasi-periodic, and chaotic type.

In this paper, high speed milling experiments on Ti6Al4V were conducted with coated carbide inserts under a wide range of cutting conditions. The effects of cutting speed, feed rate and radial depth of cut on the cutting forces, chip morphologies as well as surface roughness were investigated. The results indicated that the cutting speed 200m/min could be considered as a critical value at which both relatively low cutting forces and good surface quality can be obtained at the same time. When the cutting speed exceeds 200m/min, the cutting forces increase rapidly and the surface quality degrades. There exist obvious correlations between cutting forces and surface roughness.

This paper presents the effect of high speed micro end milling parameters on tool vibration during machining of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA). The main focus is to achieve minimum tool vibration by controlling the cutting parameters; spindle speed, feed rate and depth of cut. An empirical model for tool vibration has been developed using Taguchi method. The orthogonal array, signal-to-noise ratio and analysis of variance revealed that high spindle speed is the most influential parameter to increase the level of tool vibration.

Burrs generated in micro-milling operation have a significant impact on the surface quality and operational performance of the finished microstructures. In order to gain a better recognition of burr generation process, 3-dimensional double-edged micro-flat end milling operation FEM models on Ti6Al4V have been established. Burrs occurred in simulation can be classified into three types: entrance burr, exit burr, top burr. Their formation processes and causes are well investigated and analyzed, moreover, a series of experiments are conducted to validate the burr morphologies which are received in simulation. At last, the effect of cutting parameters on top burr size is studied through orthogonal experiment on Ti6Al4V, it can be concluded that the axial depth of cut has the greatest effect on top burr size, and the effect of spindle speed on top burr size is the least.
