Hard machinability of titanium alloy material and poor stiffness of thin-walled part restricted the extensive applications of titanium alloy thin-walled component in aerospace engineering. In order to increase geometric accuracy, a method of ultrasonic vibration assisted (UVA) end milling technology with workpiece vibrating in feeding direction was put forward in this paper, and the corresponding milling force characteristics in UVA milling of titanium alloy TC4 thin-walled workpiece were researched. Through theoretical analysis, the path of cutter tooth in UVA milling was analyzed. The important factors that affect milling force are obtained with the signal to noise ratio analysis. Results show that the radial cutting force in UVA milling is smaller than that in traditional milling. Cutting force fluctuate in high frequency when treated ultrasonic vibration. And the axial cutting feed is the core factor that affects the milling force. The research provides a certain reference for the precision milling of titanium alloy thin-walled parts.

Magnesium alloys have a tremendous possibility for biomedical applications due to their good biocompatibility, integrity and degradability, but their low ignition temperature and easy corrosive property restrict the machining process for potential biomedical applications. In this research, ultrasonic vibration-assisted ball milling (UVABM) for AZ31B is investigated to improve the cutting performance and get specific surface morphology in dry conditions. Cutting force and cutting temperatures are measured during UVABM. Surface roughness is measured with a white light interferometer after UVABM. The experimental results show cutting force and cutting temperature reduce due to ultrasonic vibration, and surface roughness decreases by 34.92%, compared with that got from traditional milling, which indicates UVABM is suitable to process AZ31B for potential biomedical applications.

Abstract In order to study the influence of rotational speed and amplitude on the surface integrity, TC18 titanium alloy samples were milled by the process of conventional milling and longitudinal ultrasonic vibration assisted milling. The experimental data were obtained by dynamometer, thermometer, scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer and three-dimensional surface topography instrument for observation and analysis. The results show that the rotational speed has a significant effect on the cutting force, cutting temperature, surface morphology and surface residual stress. Compared with ordinary milling, the surface micro-texture produced by ultrasonic vibration milling is more regular, , and with the increase of rotational speed, the influence of ultrasonic vibration on cutting force and cutting temperature decrease. There are adverse effects on surface roughness after ultrasonic vibration superposition. The influence of ultrasonic vibration on the surface residual compressive stress is also greatly reduced when the rotational speed is greater than 2400 rpm. In addition, a certain depth of plastic deformation layer can be formed under the surface of ultrasonic vibration machining, and the depth of deformation layer increases with the increase of vibration.

In milling process, cutting force is the main cause of machining deformation, and in machining of thin-walled parts, machining deformation is the major factor for machining error. In this paper, through finite element analysis software ABAQUS, three-dimensional simulation analysis on the machining of SiCp/Al composite thin-walled parts with a polycrystalline diamond tool have been carried out. It reveals the influence of radial depth of cut, cutting speed, and feed per tooth on cutting force. Analysis results show that: higher speed, small radial depth of cut and moderate feed per tooth can effectively reduce cutting force and inhibit deformation. In addition, a comparison is made between analysis results of milling force and high accuracy milling force prediction model, results from the two methods are similar.

Background: Calibration of cutting coefficients is the key content in modeling a mechanistic cutting force model. Generally, in modeling cutting force for ball end milling, the tangent, radial and binormal cutting force coefficients are each considered as a polynomial, respectively. This fact is due to the dependency between the cutting force coefficients and the cutting edge inclination angle which is variable in ball-end mills. Objective: This paper presents an approach to determine the polynomial cutting force coefficients. Methods: In this approach, the cutting force coefficients are expressed as explicit linear equations about the average slotting forces. After analysis of the least square regression method which is utilized in the cutting coefficients evaluation, the principle of cutting parameters choice in calibration experiment and the relationship between the order of polynomial and the number of experiments are presented. Besides, a lot of patents on identification of polynomial cutting coefficients for milling force model were studied. Results: Finally, a series of semi-slotting verification cutting tests were arranged, the measured force agrees well with the predicted force, which demonstrates the effectiveness of this approach. Conclusion: Based on the calibration method proposed in this paper, the cutting coefficients can be determined through (m+2) slotting experiments for m-degree shearing coefficients polynomial theoretically.

Titanium Alloy Ti6al4v

Cutting force coefficients were conventionally described as the power function of instantaneous uncut chip thickness. However, it was found that the changes in the three controllable machining parameters (cutting speed, feed and axial cutting depth) could significantly affect the values of cutting coefficients. An improved cutting force model was developed in this article based on the experimental investigation of end milling titanium alloy (Ti6Al4V) with polycrystalline diamond tools. The relationships between machining parameters and cutting force are established based on the introduction of the new cutting coefficients. By integrating the effects of varying cutting parameters in the prediction model, cutting forces and the fluctuation of cutting force in each milling cycle were calculated. Validation experiments show that the predicted peak values of cutting forces highly match the experimental results; the accuracy of the model is up to 90% in predicting instantaneous cutting forces.

Force Characteristics

Based on the application of elliptical vibration cutting method to precision machining of hard and brittle materials and material softening technology through laser heating, a novel composite cutting technique, laser heating and ultrasonic elliptical vibration assisted cutting, is applied to process sintered tungsten carbide. The simulation of the orthogonal cutting process and the effect of frequency and amplitude of vibration and laser heating temperature on cutting force are discussed by using FEA method. Research results have revealed that the main peak of the transient force components increase with the increase of vibration frequency, decrease with the increase of vibration amplitude and laser heating temperature. Moreover, the friction reversal phenomenon is improved with the increase of vibration frequency and amplitude, resulting in the decrease of average cutting force. Compared to common cutting and traditional one-dimensional ultrasonic vibration cutting, the composite cutting technology put forward in this paper has unique cutting force characteristics for such super hard material because of combined action of friction reversal and intermittence cutting for ultrasonic elliptical vibration and material softening for laser heating. The research in the paper has provided a practical reference for the further experiments of laser and ultrasonic assisted cutting.
