abstract: nowadays, the non-traditional processes such as “laser, edm and awj” used for cutting high thickness sheet metal. hardox is hard and tough steel alloy and it has many industrialize applications. one best process to cut the hardox is abrasive water jet (awj) cutting.  it can cuts complex shape with high quality and accurate tolerance.  awj cutting offers certain unique benefits such as...

Predicting the main cutting force during turning is of great importance as it helps in setting the appropriate cutting parameters before machining starts.Again, optimization of cutting parameters is one of the most important elements in any process planning of metal parts as economy of machining operation plays a key role in gaining competitive advantage. This paper presents an experimental stu...

The effect of run-out is clearly noticed in micro-end-milling operations, while the same run-out creates negligible change at the cutting force profile of conventional end-milling operations. In this paper, the cutting force characteristics of micro-end-milling operations with tool run-out are investigated. An analytical cutting force model is developed for micro-end-milling operations with too...

this paper presents a mathematical model for the vibration analysis of a three-component piezoelectric force sensor. the cubic theory of weakly nonlinear electroelasticity is applied to the model for describing the electromechanical coupling effect in the piezoelectric sensing elements which operate in thickness-shear and thickness-stretch vibration modes. hamilton's principle is used to d...

Reliable prediction of cutting forces is essential for micromilling. In this paper, a fuzzy cutting force modelling method based on subtractive clustering method filters the noise and estimates the instantaneous cutting forces using observations acquired by sensors during cutting experiments. In the experimental case study, four data sets of micromilling cutting force are used. Each data set is...

The machining of fibre reinforced composites is an important activity for optimal application of these advanced materials into engineering fields. During machining, any excessive cutting force has to be avoided in order to prevent any product reject in the last stages of production cycle. Therefore, the ability to predict the cutting forces is essential to select the process parameters necessar...

This paper presents a Kalman filter designed for a cutting force measurement system. The cutting force measurement system is used to measure cutting forces for meso-milling applications. Due to the small magnitude of the cutting forces generated from the meso-milling process, the measurement results are easily distorted by the noise that exists in the measurement system. The object of the Kalma...

Much research has gone into machining process monitoring and control. This paper reviews monitoring and control schemes of cutting force and torque. Sensors to measure cutting force and torque, as well as their indirect estimation, are reviewed. Feedback control schemes and model-based feedforward scheduling schemes of cutting forces, as well as tool path optimization schemes for cutting force ...
