Reversible cutting method is a research thesis proposed to shorten processing route, decrease tool number and handling time, increase machining efficiency. There are three movement ways, i.e. reversible feed motion, reversible primary motion and reversible composite motion. Primary motion is done by workpiece, conventional or reversible feed motion is done by cutting tool in the way of reversible feed motion, e.g. turning. Cutting velocity is passed to cutting tool, clockwise or anti-clockwise cutting movement is done by cutting tool in the way of reversible primary motion, e.g. milling, shaping, drilling (spade drill), reaming. Primary and feed motions are all reversible in composite motion, e.g. turn-milling. Chip deformation and machined surface with reversible finishing is discussed. A mechanical analysis is carried out to the workpiece deformation of slender shaft turning in normal direction and reversible direction. The result has been verified by experiments. Experimental data for the range of cutting parameters tested showed that the reversible fine machining produce the compressive residual stresses at the surface, which are critical in the performance of the machined components. Experimental research indicted that the results of micro-hardness of reversible fine machining technique are smaller than that of general fine machining show that decreased plastic deformation of the surface layer and work-hardening. It can be adopted such planning which rough machining during advance stroke and fine machining during return stroke in machining process.

Reversible cutting method is a new research thesis proposed to shorten processing route, decrease tool number and handling time, increase machining efficiency. The aim of the presented work was to analysis the effects of reversible fine machining sequence on surface integrity in machined layer. Nonlinear hardening during reverse loading and the change of the Bauschinger effect factor with plastic strain were properly taken into account. In experiments, the residual stresses have been measured using the X-ray diffraction technique (at the surface of the workpiece and in depth). Moreover, micro-hardness and surface roughness of machined surface are presented. Experimental data for the range of cutting parameters tested showed that the reversible fine machining produce the tensile residual stresses at the surface, which are critical in the performance of the machined components. The experimental results of micro-hardness of reversible fine machining technique are smaller than that of general fine machining show that decreased plastic deformation of the surface layer and work-hardening. Surface roughness of machined surface with reversible finishing is discussed. Research results indicted that it can be adopted such planning which rough machining during advance stroke and fine machining or semi-finishing during return stroke in machining process. In this way, it has such advantages that increase machining efficiency and machining accuracy, decrease bending deformation.

There is a difference in machining by the cutting tool with defined geometry and undefined geometry. That is one of the reasons of implementation of hard turning into the machining process. In current manufacturing processes is hard turning many times used as a fine finish operation. It has many advantages – machining by single point cutting tool, high productivity, flexibility, ability to produce parts with complex shapes at one clamping. Very important is to solve machined surface quality. There is a possibility to use wiper geometry in hard turning process to achieve 3 – 4 times lower surface roughness values. Cutting parameters influence cutting process as well as cutting tool geometry. It is necessary to take into consideration cutting force components as well. Issue of the use of wiper geometry has been still insufficiently researched.

In this paper, a multi-level method has been adopted to optimize the holes machining process with genetic algorithm (GA). Based on the analyzing of the features of the part with multi-holes, the local optimal processing route for the holes with the same processing feature is obtained with GA, then try to obtain the global optimal route with GA by considering the obtained local optimal route and the holes with different features. That is what the multi-level method means. The optimal route means the minimum moving length of the cutting tool and the minimum changing times of the cutting tool. The experiment is carried out to verify the algorithm and the proposed method, and result indicates that with GA and using the multi-level method the optimal holes machining route can be achieved efficiently.

The most common machining processes of turning, drilling, milling and grinding concern the removal of material from a workpiece using a cutting tool. The performance of machining processes depends on a number of key method parameters, including cutting tool, workpiece material, machine configuration, fixturing, cutting parameters and tool path trajectory. The large number of possible configurations can make it difficult to implement fault detection systems without having to train the system to a particular method or fault type. The research of this article applies a novel method to detect the changing state of a process over time in order to detect faulty machining conditions such as worn tools and cutting depth changes. Unlike studies in the previous literature in this domain, an unsupervised learning method is used, so that the method can be applied in production to unfamiliar processes or fault conditions. In the case presented, novelty detection is applied to a multivariate sensor feature data set obtained from a milling process. Sensor modalities include acoustic emission, vibration and spindle power and time and frequency domain features are employed. The Mahalanobis squared-distance is used to measure discordancy of each new data point, and values that exceed a principled novelty threshold are categorised as fault conditions.

Determination of optimum cutting parameters is one of the most essential tasks in process planning of metal parts. However, to achieve the optimal machining performance, the cutting parameters have to be regulated in real time. Therefore, utilizing an intelligent-based control system, which can adjust the machining parameters in accordance with optimal criteria, is inevitable. This article presents an intelligent adaptive control with optimization methodology to optimize material removal rate and machining cost subjected to surface quality constraint in finish turning of hardened AISI D2 considering the real condition of the cutting tool. Wavelet packet transform of cutting tool vibration signals is applied to estimate tool wear. Artificial intelligence techniques (artificial neural networks, genetic programming and particle swarm optimization) are used for modeling of surface roughness and tool wear and optimization of machining process during hard turning. Confirmatory experiments indicated that the efficiency of the proposed adaptive control with optimization methodology is 25.6% higher compared to the traditional computer numerical control turning systems.

In the integrally shaping process from a simple material shape to an objective shape, it is necessary to reduce the time required for the machining process in order to improve cost savings and the effectiveness of mass production. For the purpose of achieving high efficiency in the integral shaping from simplicity materials, we have focused on a rough cutting process that requires the most time in the manufacturing process. The purpose of this research is to propose a method for realizing high-speed rough machining using five-axis machine tools with a voxel model, and confirm the high efficiency of the rough cutting. In this research, we use five-axis controlled machine tools for material machining, and suggest two machining methods for the rough cutting process using the voxel model. The first method derives the tool posture where the cutting removal quantity becomes the maximum; this method also carries out a rough cutting process via 3+2 axis controlled machining. The other method carries a complete convex shape that includes the required shape, and simultaneously machines via five-axis machining based on the complete convex shape. This paper demonstrates the 3+2 axis control machining method that uses the voxel model to perform the rough machining process with high efficiency, and the simultaneous five-axis control machining method that uses a complete convex shape model for rough machining. We confirm the results with a computer simulation and actual machining experiments.

From the invention of turning machine or lathe, some engineers are trying to increase the turning productivity. The increase of productivity is following after the breakout in instrumental area, such as the hard alloy instrument and resistance to wear cutting surfaces. The potential of cutting speed has a certain limit. New steel marks and cutting surfaces types allow significantly increase cutting and turning speeds. For the most operation types the productivity increase begins from the feeding increase. But the increase of feeding goes together with machined surface result decreasement. Metal cutting with high feeding is one of the most actual problems in the increasing of manufacturing volume but there are some problems one of them is the cutting forces increasement and larger metal removal rate, which decrease the cutting tool life significantly. Increasing of manufacturing volume, going together with the cutting instrument technology and material evolution, such as the invention of the carbide cutting materials and wear resistant coatings such as TiC and Ti(C,N). Each of these coating have its own properties and functions in the metal cutting process. Together with this evolution the cutting tool geometry and machining parameters dependencies are researched. Traditionally for the decreasing the machining time of one part, the cutting parameters were increased, decreasing by this way the machining operation quantity. In our days the wear resistance of the cutting tools increasing and it is mostly used one or two machining operations (medium and fine finishing). The purpose of the topic is to represent the experimental results of the stainless steel turning process, using increased cutting speeds and feeding values, to develop advanced processing technology, using new modern coated cutting tools by CVD and PVD methods. After investigation of the machined surface roughness results, develop the mathematical model of the cutting process using higher values of the cutting parameters.

Durability of cutting tools represent to a large spectral index on the basis of which is characterized by functional work. Every manufacturer of cutting tools before the actual production of these tools during the development make a tests and prescribing them characteristics on which is possible then to predict their behavior in the actual production process. It might be argued, that these information are optimized and ideal and therefore the information which producers sells by these cutting tools, do not correspond completely with their real behavior. It is necessary that information by using experiments to verify and then review their informative value and correctness. Durability of cutting tools is often indicated for one tested material of marketing aspect, which is machined and effort of user is to achieve this variable for other machined materials, then is happened problem in the production. The problem is very short lifetime of cutting tool in machining process, where the effect is impossibility to optimize the machining process. The results of this action are excesses time caused by exchanged of cutting plate and then it is make a low production of machining industry by setting of machines, and then the factory has an economical loses. This article is focused on tested of cutting tools made by sintered carbide, where the machine material is steel 100CrMn6. This type of steel is used by manufacturer of bearings, therefore the experimental part of this article should be a helper for machining manufactures, which make effectively manage with tools by optimization of cutting parameters of cutting tools and thus increase their productivity and to achieve a higher profits.
