A Study on the Thermal Deformation of a Cutting Tool in End Milling

엔드밀 작업에서 공구의 열변형에 관한 연구

Machining process introduces thermal deformation of a cutter, which affects the surface finish of the workpieces. By measuring the temperature distribution of the cutter, thermal stress and deformation of the cutter are simulated. In addition, surface roughness of workpiece is simulated by the surface-shaping system. The result shows that thermal deformation deteriorates the surface roughness.
