A Dedicated Design Strategy for Active Boring Bar

Suppressing Boring Bar Vibrations by Parametric Excitation

Machine tool chatter causes an instability that can occur in tool-workpiece-machine system. Hence surface roughness and tool wear in metal cutting processes. This instability caused by interaction between current tool positions and surface left by previous tool passes. Many methods have been developed to minimize the effects of regenerative chatter in machine tools and to enhance the damping ca...

A study of Magneto-Rheological Fluid (MRF) Boring Bar For Chatter Stability

Chatter is a concern in boring process, due to the low dynamic stiffness of long cantilever boring bars. Chatter suppression in machining permits higher productivity and better surface finishes. The MR fluid, which changes stiffness and undergoes a phase transformation when subjected to an external magnetic field, is applied to adjust the stiffness of the boring bar and suppress chatter. The st...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

Actuator Placements and Variations in the Control Path Estiamtes in the Active Control of Boring Bar Vibrations

A classical example of chatter prone machining is the boring operation. Turning under conditions with high vibrations in the cutting tool deteriorates the surface finish and may cause tool breakage. Severe noise is also a consequence of the high vibration levels in the boring bar. Active control is one possible solution to the noise and vibration problem in boring operations. In boring operatio...
