The article deals with the proposed 5-axis strategies of high-speed milling of thin-walled parts. I proposed three ways of material take-in. It is an advantage that by this milling the shaft of the tool is not in contact with the machined surface. Each tool contact with the machined surface leaves an unwanted track on the parts surface. Article present new methods for five axes high speed milling flexible parts. Experimental part was five axis high speed milling and measuring quality of surface. Results were evaluated by statistic methods by software Minitab.

The Relationship

Surface topography is a significant factor that affects directly the surface integrity. There are several influencing factors. The purpose of the study is to investigate the effects of edge radius on surface integrity of Ti6Al4V. The proposed approach uses three different angles to study the relationship between the edge radius and surface roughness. The study develops theoretical model, roughness model based on cutting force and roughness empirical model. Experimental results show that machined surface integrity of TC4 is sensitive to the variations of the edge radius. The method is effective and can provide a guidance to optimize edge radius. It has realized higher accurate prediction of surface integrality in precision high speed milling with one of the models and has improved surface roughness quality of the work-piece.

Milling Parameters

Within the scope of high speed milling process parameters, analyzed and discussed the effects of spindle speed, feed rate, milling depth and milling width on milling forces in the process of high speed milling of AM50A magnesium alloy. At the same time, the influence of milling parameters on the surface roughness of AM50A magnesium alloy has been revealed by means of the measurement of surface roughness and surface micro topography. High speed milling experiments of AM50A magnesium alloy were carried out by factorial design. Form the analysis of experimental results, The milling parameters, which have significant influence on milling force in high speed milling of AM50A magnesium alloy, are milling depth, milling width and feed speed, and the nonlinear characteristics of milling force and milling parameters. The milling force decreases with the increase of spindle in the given mill parameters. For the effects of milling parameters on surface quality of the performance, in the milling depth and feeding speed under certain conditions with the spindle speed increases the surface quality of AM50A magnesium alloy becomes better with the feed speed increases the surface quality becomes poor. When the spindle speed is greater than 12000r/min, the milling depth is less than 0.2mm, and the feed speed is less than 400mm/min, the milling surface quality can be obtained easily.

This paper presents finite element method (FEM) and experimental analysis on high-speed milling for thin-wall machining of Al7075-T651. Changes in cutting forces, temperature, and chip morphology according to cutting conditions are analyzed using FEM. Results of machining experiments are analyzed in terms of cutting forces and surface integrity such as surface roughness and surface condition. Variables of cutting conditions are feed per tooth, spindle speed, and axial depth of cut. Cutting conditions to improve surface integrity were investigated by analysis on cutting forces and surface roughness, and machined surface condition.

As the development of new materials and high speed machining, cutting fluid becomes more and more important because of its functions of cooling, lubrication, corrosion protection and cleaning. The main purposes of cutting fluid are decreasing temperature, reducing friction, extending tool life and improving machining efficiency. In precision machining, high machined surface integrity is the most important. In this paper, a preliminary experimental study on effect of two different cutting fluids on milled surface quality of iron-base superalloy was taken. The surface morphology, roughness, micro hardness and residual stress of the machined surface were investigated. The results showed that the material properties and geometric characteristics of the machined surface were significantly affected by cutting fluid conditions. The effect of cutting fluid on machined surface quality and service performance will become an important research direction. This paper also suggests the main contents of the further research on effect of cutting fluids on machined surface.

A method for predicting the stability of thin-walled workpiece milling process is described. The proposed approach takes into account the dynamic characteristics of workpiece changing with tool positions. A dedicated thin-walled workpiece representative of a typical industrial application is designed and modeled by finite element method (FEM). The workpiece frequency response function (FRF) depending on tool positions is obtained. A specific 3D stability chart (SC) for different spindle speeds and different tool positions is then elaborated by scanning the dynamic properties of workpiece along the machined direction throughout the machining process. The dynamic optimization of cutting parameters for increasing the chatter free material removal rate and surface finish is presented through considering the chatter vibration and forced vibration. The investigations are compared and verified by high speed milling experiments with flexible workpiece.

The Stability

Thin-walled structure is easy to vibrate in machining. The dynamic milling model of thin-walled workpiece is analyzed based on the analysis of degrees in two perpendicular directions of machine tool-workpiece system. In high speed milling of 2A12 aluminum alloy, the compensation method based on the modification of inertia effect is proposed and accurate cutting force coefficients are obtained. The machining system is divided into “spindle-cutter” and “workpiece-fixture” two sub-systems and the modal parameters of two sub-systems are acquired via modal analysis experiments. Finally, the stability lobes for high speed milling of 2A12 thin-walled workpiece are obtained by the use of these parameters. The results are verified against cutting tests.

For the purpose of investigating the effect on surface micro-topography of cutting parameters in high speed milling of SiCp/Al Composites, the high speed milling experiments were performed .The machined surface was measured by Taylor Hobson roughness tester and OLS3000 Confocal Laser Scanning Microscope. The acquired surface data was dealt with the three-dimensional roughness method. The three-dimensional root-mean-square deviation of the surface Sq and two-dimensional root-mean-square deviation Rq were compared. The effects of cutting parameters on three-dimensional roughness parameter were also investigated. The results showed that both feed rate and depth of cut have a little effect on the value of three-dimensional roughness parameter，and the cutting speed is the main affecting factor.

Abstract Tendencies towards increasing cutting speeds during machining can be observed recently. The first wave of increasing cutting speeds occured in the 60s of the previous century. However, suitable tool material was not available at that time. Increasing cutting speed is possible only following the development of cutting material, resistant against high temperatures, abrasive, adhesive and diffusive wear. It is obvious that the process of chip creation, quality of machined surface, dynamics of machining process and temperature of cutting change considerably with cutting speed. To be able to apply higher cutting speeds in production machining, it is necessary to know the dependence of those characteristics on cutting speed. Some of those phenomena, which are linked with cutting speed, will be explained in the paper. Key words: machining, cutting speed, tool durability, surface quality
