Optimization of machining parameters for improving the machining efficiency is become important, when high capital cost NC machines have been employed for high precision and efficient machining. The strategy is to minimize the production time and cost by optimizing feed per tooth, speed, width of cut, depth of cut and tool diameter by satisfying all the constraints such as maximum machine power...

Milling forces play an important role in the milling process and are generally calculated by mechanistic or numerical methods; reliable model of cutting is very for simulation process, which has big scientific significance to further improve machining quality. Ball helical technology used make holes based on principle using ball end cutter, due influence spherical surface characteristic, modeli...

A New Geometric-and-Physics Model of Milling and An Effective Approach to Medial Axis Transforms of Free-form Pockets for High Performance Machining Qiang Fu, Ph.D. Concordia University, 2010 Mechanical part quality and productivity depend on many parameters in CNC milling processes, such as workpiece material, cutters, tool paths, feed rate, and spindle speed, etc. To pursue high performance m...

This paper discusses the selection of tools in milling processes. To carry out this research, it has been developed an expert system based on numerical methods. The expert system, chooses an appropriate tool, between a known set of candidate available cutters. The knowledge base is given by limiting the process variables. They are obtained taking into account, instabilities due to tool-work-pie...

Metal matrix composites have been increasingly used as materials for components in automotive and aerospace industries because of their improved properties compared with non-reinforced alloys. During machining the selection of appropriate machining parameters to produce job for desired surface roughness is of great concern considering the economy of manufacturing process. In this study, a surfa...

Tool wear increases cutting force, vibration, temperature, etc in end milling and reduces surface finish of the machined work piece. Mathematical model has been developed to predict the tool wear in terms of machining parameters such as helix angle of cutting tool, spindle speed, feed rate, axial and radial depth of cut. Central composite rotatable second order response surface methodology was ...

This paper discusses the selection of tools and cutting parameters in milling operations. To carry out this research, an expert system has been developed based on numerical methods of performance evaluation. The knowledge base is given by limitations in process variables, which let us to define the allowable cutting parameter space. The mentioned limitations are instabilities due to tool-work-p...

The movement of air around a rotating milling cutter is investigated experimentally by using the optical non-intrusive method PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry). located next to flat surface simulating processed material. Flow studied in three planes axial × radial direction with phases 90°, 180° and 270° from point closest desk. timing has been synchronized rotation. We observed plumes governed ...
