Machinability of Graphite with Face milling cutter

Experimental Study on Milling CFRP with Staggered PCD Cutter

Carbon fiber reinforced plastics (CFRP) have good physical properties, such as high specific strength and high specific modulus. However, cutting delamination, tearing and burr, etc. often occur in the machining process of CFRP, which results in the uncontrollability of machining surface quality and serious tool wear. In this paper, milling of CFRP with a staggered cutter was carried out, the c...

Study of the effective cutter radius for end milling of free-form surfaces using a torus milling cutter

Cutter Path Generation For 2.5D Milling By Combining Multiple Different Cutter Path Patterns

Different cutter path patterns have been shown to be efficient for different types of pocket geometries. However, for certain types of complex pockets, no single type of pattern produces efficient cutter paths throughout the pocket. In this paper, different cutter path patterns are systematically analysed and several existing heuristics for selecting cutter path patterns are discussed. Based on...

Few-layer graphenes from ball-milling of graphite with melamine.

We report a simple, practical scalable procedure to produce few-layer graphene sheets using ball-milling. Commercially available melamine can be efficiently used to exfoliate graphite and generate concentrated water or DMF dispersions.

A Geometric Algorithm for Finding the Largest Milling Cutter

In this paper, we describe a new geometric algorithm to determine the largest feasible cutter size for 2-D milling operations to be performed using a single cutter. In particular: 1. We give a general definition of the problem as the task of covering a target region without interfering with an obstruction region. This definition encompasses the task of milling a general 2-D profile that include...
