In the present study, aluminum alloy 2014 was selected as workpiece material, cutting forces were measured under turning conditions. Cutting parameters, the depth of cut, feed rate, the cutting speed, were considered to arrange the test research. Mathematical model of turning force was solved through response surface methodology (RSM). The fitting of response surface model for the data was studied by analysis of variance (ANOVA). The quadratic model of RSM associated with response optimization technique and composite desirability was used to find optimum values of machining parameters with respect to cutting force values. The turning force coefficients in the model were calibrated with the test results, and the suggested models of cutting forces adequately map within the limits of the cutting parameters considered. Experimental results suggested that the most cutting force among three cutting forces was main cutting force. Main influencing factor on cutting forces was obtained through cutting force models and correlation analysis. Cutting force has a significant influence on the part quality. Based on the cutting force model, a few case studies could be presented to investigate the precision machining of aluminum alloy 2014 thin walled parts.

To enhance the implementation of micro milling, it is necessary to clearly understand the dynamic characteristics of micro milling so that proper machining parameters can be used to meet the requirements of application. By taking the effect of minimum chip thickness and rake angle into account, a new cutting force model of micro-milling which is function the instantaneous cutting area and machining coefficients was developed. According to the instantaneous rotation trajectory of cutting edge, the cutting area projected to xy-plane was determined by rectangular integral method, and used to solve the instantaneous cutting area. After the machining coefficients were solved, the cutting force of micro-milling for different radial depths of cut and different axial depths of cut can be predicted. The results of micro-milling experimental have shown that the force model can predict the cutting force accurately by which the optimal cutting parameters can be selected for micro-milling application.

Dynamic change in cutting force is one of the major causes of chatter formation in metal cutting which affect machining accuracy. Thus, accurate modeling of cutting force is necessary for the prediction of machining performance and determination of the mechanisms and machining parameters that affect the stability of machining operations. The present paper discusses the development of a mathematical model for predicting the tangential cutting force produced in endmilling operation of Ti6Al4V. The mathematical model for cutting force prediction has been developed in terms of the input cutting parameters cutting speed, feed rate, and axial depth of cut using response surface methodology (RSM). Effects of all the individual cutting parameters on cutting force as well as their interactions are investigated in this study. Central composite design was employed in developing the cutting force model in relation to the primary cutting parameters. The experimental results indicate that the proposed mathematical models suggested could adequately describe the performance indicators within the limits of the factors that are being investigated.

Elastomer end-milling is attracting attention for its role in the small-lot production of elastomeric parts. In order to apply end-milling to the production of elastomeric parts, it is important that the workpiece be held stably to avoid deformation. To evaluate the stability of workholding, it is necessary to predict cutting forces in elastomer end-milling. Cutting force prediction for metal workpiece end-milling has been investigated for many years, and many process models for end-milling have been proposed. However, the applicability of these models to elastomer end-milling has not been discussed. In this paper, the characteristics of the cutting force in elastomer end-milling are evaluated experimentally. A standard cutting force model and its parameter identification method are introduced. By using this cutting force model, measured cutting forces are compared against the calculated results. The comparison makes it clear that the standard cutting force model for metal end-milling can be applied to down milling for a rough evaluation.

The effects of cutting dynamics and the particles' size and density cannot be ignored in micro milling of metal matrix composites. This article presents the improved dynamic cutting force modelling for micro milling of metal matrix composites based on the previous analytical model. This comprehensive improved cutting force model, taking the influence of the tool run-out, actual chip thickness and resultant tool tip trajectory into account, is evaluated and validated through well-designed machining trials. A series of side milling experiments using straight flutes polycrystalline diamond end mills are carried out on the metal matrix composite workpiece under various cutting conditions. Subsequently, the measured cutting forces are compensated by a Kalman filter to achieve the accurate cutting forces. These are further compared with the predicted cutting forces to validate the proposed dynamic cutting force model. The experimental results indicate that the predicted and measured cutting forces in micro milling of metal matrix composites are in good agreement.

In order to acquire high machining quality and minimum machining time, cutting forces are usually modeled to understand the milling process, simulate or predict cutting forces, and optimize the machining parameters. In this paper, side milling tests were conducted on superalloy Inconel 718 with a solid carbide end mill, and the cutting forces vs. cutting time were measured. The average cutting forces were extracted from the measured instantaneous cutting forces under different feed rates of experiments, and the components of the shear forces and edge forces were determined by using the linear regression of the experimental data. The cutting force coefficients, including shear force coefficients and edge force coefficients, were identified. In addition, the algorithms of the mathematical model were implemented in Matlab. The predicted cutting forces were in good agreement with the experimentally measured forces, and the validation of the cutting force model was demonstrated.

In this paper, a milling process simulation system was constructed and ME Z-map (Moving Edge node Z-map) model was developed to elevate the performance of this system. The milling process simulation system computes the cutting configuration and then the cutting forces are predicted using these calculated configurations. In this system, an improved cutting force model which is independent of cutting conditions is used to more precisely predict the cutting forces. In the process, the ME Z-map model was used for more accurate computing of cutting configuration. Due to the edge node, ME Z-map model produces more accurate cutting configuration than the conventional Z-map models even with five to ten times larger grid size, which reduces the computing time dramatically. The superiority of the ME Z-map model was confirmed through comparison with the conventional Z-map.

The cornering milling process is divided into a series of cutting segments with different cutting states. The mathematical model of the geometric relationship between cutter and the corner profile is established for each segment. Cutting forces is predicted by introducing the classical cutting force model. The computational results of cutting forces are in good agreement with experimental data.

Abstract The prediction and optimization of cutting forces in the finishing machining of 3D plane surfaces using ball-end milling are presented in this paper. The cutting force model is developed based on the mechanistic modeling approach. This improved model is able to accurately predict the cutting forces for non-horizontal and cross-feed cutter movements typical in 3D finishing ball-end milling. Optimization of the cutting forces is used to determine both the tool path and the maximum feed rate in 3D plane surface finishing machining. The objective is to achieve highest machining efficiency and to ensure product quality. Experimental results have shown that the cutting force model gives excellent predictions of cutting forces in 3D finishing ball-end milling. The feasibility of the integrated process planning method has been demonstrated through the establishment of optimized process plans for the finishing machining of 3D plane surfaces.

The present tendency towards increased automation of metal cutting operations has resulted in a need to develop a model for the chip breaking process. Conventional cutting force models do not have any provision for the study of chip breaking since they assume a continuous mode of chip formation, where the contact action of the free-end of the chip is ignored in all analyses. The new cutting force model proposed in this work incorporates the contact force developed due to the free-end of the chip touching the workpiece, and is applicable to the study of two-dimensional chip breaking in orthogonal machining. Orthogonal cutting tests were performed to obtain two-dimensional chip breaking. The experimentally measured cutting forces show a good correlation with the estimated cutting forces using the model. Results show that the forces acting on the chip vary within a chip breaking cycle and help identify the chip breaking event.
