The paper has presented a study of cutting forces about dynamic stability of milling machine tools. For that has required the analysis of dynamic machining system (DMS), represented by the interaction between elastic structure of machine tool and cutting process. The cutting force occurred during cutting process is dependent by a certain factors as thickness cut, physics-mechanics properties of workpiece, geometry of shaped edge tool, etc. An important factor, which has direct influenced about DMS, is present of vibration, in special at chatter frequency due to real perturbation and damages of DMS. The magnitude of cutting force depends largely on the tool-work engagement and depth of cut. The dynamic installation has used for study of milling cutting process assured the acquisition of vibration and cutting force on each three axes of milling machine tool. The calculus and interpretation of dynamic tests had done by MATLAB R14.v7.01 Program. Dynamic tests have been more that 150 recordings, by variation of cutting depth for each spindle speeds of machine until occurring chatter. It had used for testing four milling cutters with different geometric parameters and differential pitch of cutter. These dynamic tests are emphasizing the direct influences of cutting forces about dynamic machining system. Thus, by reducing, the magnitude of cutting forces due to suppressing the vibrations and implicit enhanced the dynamic stability of milling machine and quality of machining workpiece.

Abstract This research discusses the methodology of developing a symbolic closed form solution that describes the dynamic stability of multi-flute end milling. A solution of this nature facilitates machine tool design, machining parameter planning, process monitoring, diagnostics, and control. This study establishes a compliance feedback model that describes the dynamic behavior of regenerative chatter for multi-flute tool-work interaction. The model formulates the machining dynamics based upon the interconnecting relationship of the tool geometry convolution and the machining system compliance. The tool geometry convolution characterizes the cutting forces as a function of the process parameters and the material properties, while two independent vibratory modules, the mill tool and the workpiece, represent the machining system compliance. The compliance feedback model allows the development of a corresponding characteristic equation. By investigating the roots of the characteristic equation, this research symbolically expresses the stability of the system as a function of the cutting parameters, the tool geometry, the workpiece geometry, and the vibrational characteristics of the machine tool. Machining experimentation examining the fidelity of the regenerative charter model is discussed. The dynamic cutting forces, cutting vibration, and surface finish of the machining process confirm the validity of the analytical prediction.

High-speed milling tests were performed on vol. (5%-8%) TiCp/TC4 composite in the speed range of 50-250 m/min using PCD tools to nvestigate the cutting temperature and the cutting forces. The results showed that radial depth of cut and cutting speed were the two significant influences that affected the cutting forces based on the Taguchi prediction. Increasing radial depth of cut and feed rate will increase the cutting force while increasing cutting speed will decrease the cutting force. Cutting force increased less than 5% when the reinforcement volume fraction in the composites increased from 0% to 8%. Radial depth of cut was the only significant influence factor on the cutting temperature. Cutting temperature increased with the increasing radial depth of cut, feed rate or cutting speed. The cutting temperature for the titanium composites was 40-90 °C higher than that for the TC4 matrix. However, the cutting temperature decreased by 4% when the reinforcement's volume fraction increased from 5% to 8%.

The article presents safety issues related to on-site machining with the use of portable machine tools. Their advantage is the possibility of machining elements at places in which they are used. This especially refers to large-size constructions, welded elements and any items whose disassembly is technically difficult. The authors present tasks performed by the operators of portable machining equipment, working conditions, construction and characteristic features of portable machine tools on the example of a portable boring machine, milling machine and flange facing machine. The presented characteristics can influence the safety of work with these machines. The information given in the article were used to asses risk at the position of a portable machine tool operator. The assessment was conducted using the Risk Score method taking into account four stages of using portable machine tools, i.e. transport, assembly/disassembly, machining and maintenance. The result of the conducted risk analysis is the proposal of possible risk reducing actions. Due to the specificity of the operation of portable machine tools which significantly impedes the development of a machine tool which would be safe in and of itself, the proposed actions refer mainly to organisational solutions. The work presents also the thesis that it is possible to decrease the risk at this position thanks to the use of numerical control in a portable machine tool. Such a solution may reduce exposure to some identified threats. The issue is presented on the example of a prototype of a portable flange facing machine developed in the Institute of Mechanical Technology ZUT in Szczecin.

Modeling the milling process requires cutter/workpiece engagement (CWE) geometry in order to predict cutting forces. The calculation of these engagements is challenging due to the complicated and changing intersection geometry that occurs between the cutter and the in-process workpiece. This geometry defines the instantaneous intersection boundary between the cutting tool and the in-process workpiece at each location along a tool path. This paper presents components of a robust and efficient geometric modeling methodology for finding CWEs generated during 3-axis machining of surfaces using a range of different types of cutting tool geometries. A mapping technique has been developed that transforms a polyhedral model of the removal volume from Euclidean space to a parametric space defined by location along the tool path, engagement angle and the depth-of-cut. As a result, intersection operations are reduced to first order plane-plane intersections. This approach reduces the complexity of the cutter/workpiece intersections and also eliminates robustness problems found in standard polyhedral modeling and improves accuracy over the Z-buffer technique. The CWEs extracted from this method are used as input to a force prediction model that determines the cutting forces experienced during the milling operation. The reported method has been implemented and tested using a combination of commercial applications. This paper highlights ongoing collaborative research into developing a Virtual Machining System.

The aim of this paper overviews about to find out the errors that come from three axis CNC vertical milling machine. The errors come from, the CNC milling machine can be modelled into mathematical models and later on these error models will be used to analyse the errors in the measured data. Many errors from CNC machine tools have given significant effects toward the accuracy and repeatability of manufacturing process. There are two error sources come from CNC machine tools such as tool deflection and thermal distortions of machine tool structure. These errors later on will contribute to result in the geometrical deviations of moving axis in CNC vertical milling machine. Geometrical deviations of moving axis such as linear positioning errors, roll, pitch and yaw can be designated as volumetric errors in three axis machine tool. Geometrical deviations of moving axises happen at every axis in three axis CNC vertical milling machine. Geometrical deviations of moving axises in linear and angular movement has the amount of errors up to twenty one errors. Moreover, this geometrical errors play the major role in the total amount of errors and for that particular reason extra attention towards the geometrical deviation errors will be needed along machining process. Each of geometrical error of three axes vertical machining center is modeled using a homogeneous transformation matrix (HTM). The developed mathematical model is used to calculate geometrical errors at each axis and to predict the resultant error vector at the interface of machine tool and workpiece for error compensation.

An Artificial Neural Network (ANN) model is developed to accurately predict the instantaneous cutting forces in flat end milling. A unique frequency domain approach is presented and is seen to simulate instantaneous cutting forces reasonably well. A set of eight input variables is chosen to represent the machining conditions and frequency domain parameters of the cutting force signal are generated. Three input parameters are varied, namely Feed, Speed and Depth of Cut. Four output parameters are suggested as a sufficient set to adequately reproduce the instantaneous cutting forces. Exhaustive experimentation is conducted to collect data (consisting of Fx, Fy, and Fz) to train and validate the model.

The relationships among the n, ap , and f of the SiCp /Cu composite material produced by powder metallurgy and extrusion have been investigated. The cutting force F of this material is also discussed in this paper by the measuring of the three cutting factors of n, ap, and f, applying the dislocation theory and the electron microscope analysis of the cutting surface and sub-surface. The differences are analyzed between the SiCp/Cu composite materials, QSn6-6-3. H59-1and the copper cutting surface and the sub-surface. The forming of mechanism, the function of SiCp in the cutting process and the influence on the cutting surface quality are also analyzed. This research has shown: because the SiCp particles prevent the dislocation moving, the dislocation groups are formed on the SiC/Cu interface, and the stress concentration is produced, the typical brittle separation appears in the SiC/Cu composite material cutting process. In addition, the cutting force increases with the depth of cut and feed increasing and decreases while the cutting speed increases.

This paper clarifies the effects of workpiece location in a 5-axis-controlled machine tool from the viewpoint of Inverse kinematics including Manipulability measure: an index representing the variance of movement of end-effector in a serial linkage. Firstly the importance of Inverse kinematics in Computer Aided Manufacturing is emphasized and then Singularity and Manipulability measure are expanded for multiaxis-controlled machine tools. Secondly the computational results of Manipulability measure for different workpiece locations and tool orientations show that setting the workpiece in the centre of the rotary work-table is most preferable. Regardless of large differences in Manipulability measure at different locations, there were few differences of the resultant cutting force in machining experiments. Finally the brief conclusion is mentioned.
