High speed machining (HSM), specifically end milling and ball end cutting, is attracting interest in the die/mold or aerospace industries for the machining of complex 3D surfaces. HSM of difficult-to-cut materials such as die/mold steels, titanium alloys or nickel based superalloys generates the concentrated thermal/frictional damage at the cutting edge of the tool and rapidly decreases the tool life. Following a brief introduction on HSM and reated aerospace or die/mold work, the paper reviews published data on the effect of cutter/workpiece orientation and cutting environments on tool performance. First, experimental work is detailed on the effect of cutter orientation on tool life, cutting forces, chip formation, specific force and workpiece surface roughness. Cutting was performed using 8 mm diameter PVD coated solid carbide cutters with the workpiece mounted at an angle of 45 degree from the cutter axis. A horizontal downwards cutting orientation proveded the best tool life with cut lengths ∼50% longer than for all other directions (horizontal upwards, vertical downwards, vertical upwards). Second, the cutting environments were investigated for dry, flood coolant, and compressed chilly air coolant cutting. The experiments were performed for various hardened materials and various coated tools. The results show that the cutting environment using compressed cilly air coolant provided better tool life than the flood coolant or the dry.

항공기와 자동차 부품과 관련된 많은 제조업에서, 낮은 비중과 높은 강도에서 뛰어난 알루미늄 합금(Al2024)은 효과적으로 사용되었다. 가공소재의 표면거칠기 품위를 위한 정면밀링 가공기술은 이들 분야에서 적용되어 왔다. 챔퍼된 드로우 어웨이 타입의 인서트를 갖는 정면밀링 가공은 단지 이론적으로 완전한 평면을 생산할 수 있다. 그러나 그것은 절삭온도, 소성변형, 동적효과 등으로 인하여 불가능하다. 본 논문에서 실험적 연구는 검증된 고속가공이 가능한 정면밀링커터 바디를 사용하여 Al2024의 고속가공 후 표면거칠기를 개선하기 위하여 수행되었다.

간염이나 AIDS의 영향으로 멸균에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있으며, 교정 진료실에서도 교정용 플라이어의 멸균이 필요하게 되었다. 제조회사에서는 멸균 과정의 열이 교정용 플라이어에서의 야금학적 변화를 야기하지 않는다고 하지만 교정치과의사들은 가압 증기 멸균기나 대류식 건열 멸균기를 이용하여 반복적으로 멸균을 시행한 경우에 ligature cutter의 날이 쉽게 무디어져서 ligature cutter의 수명이 짧아진다는 것을 임상적 경험으로 알고 있다. 본 연구는 멸균과정이 교정용 플라이어의 물성에 미치는 영향을 알아보기 위하여 시행되었다. 본 연구에 사용된 교정용 플라이어는 멸균 과정을 견딜 수 있도록 개발했다고 주장하는 AEZ, Unitek과 Dentronix ligature cutter이었고, 멸균기는 대류식 건열 멸균기인 Bowmar RHT-1000과 Dentronix DDS-5000와 가압 증기 멸균기 인 Eschmann SES-2000이었다. 멸균하기 전과 200회와 400회 멸균한 후의 ligature cutter의 날 부위의 표면과 파단면의 상태는 주사 저자 현미경으로, 미세 조직은 광학 현미경으로 관찰하고, micro-Vickers와 Rockwell 경도 시험기로 경도를 측정하고, SEM-EDX로 조성 분석을 시행하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 주사 전자 현미경을 이용한 교정용 플라이어의 날 부위의 표면과 파단면의 관찰에 의하면 멸균 횟수의 증가에 따라서 표면 조직에서 검은 반점 형태의 부식 생성물의 수와 크기가 증가하는 경향이 있었으며 파단면의 관찰에서도 멸균 횟수의 증가에 따라서 전형적인 취성 파면인 벽개면의 분포율이 증가하는 경향이 있었다. 이러한 부식 현상과 금속 조직의 취성화로 기계적 특성이 저하될 것으로 사료되었다. 2. 광학 현미경을 이용한 미세 조직 사진의 관찰에서도 멸균 횟수의 증가에 따라서 Cr계 탄화물의 수와 크기가 증가하는 경향이 있었다. 이러한 금속 조직의 조대화에 따라서 기계적 특성이 저하된 것으로 생각되었다. 3. 교정용 플라이어의 날 부위의 경도는 멸균 횟수의 증가에 따라서 감소되었는데 경도의 감소는 멸균에 의한 부식생성물과 표면 조직의 변화에 따른 것으로 생각되었다. 4. SEM-EDX를 이용한 조성 분석의 결과에 의하면 AEZ과 Unitek ligature cutter는 Fe-Cr계 stainless steel이었고, Dentronix ligature cutter는 Co-Cr계 합금이었는데, 제조 회사에 따라서 금속의 조성은 달랐지만 멸균 전후의 비교에서는 큰 차이가 없었다. 5. 반복적으로 멸균을 하면서 실제 임상에서 사용한 교정용 플라이어의 날의 표면 조직을 주사 전자 현미경으로 관찰한 결과, 미세 균열을 발견할 수 있었다.

Pocket machining is metal removal operation commonly used for creating depressions in machined parts. Numerically controlled milling is the primary means for machining complex die surface. These complex surfaces are generated by a milling cutter which removes material as it traces out pre-specified tool paths. To machine, a component on a CNC machine, part programs which define the cutting tool path are needed. This tool path is usually planned from CAD, and converted to a CAM machine input format. In this paper I proposed a new method for generating NC tool paths. This method generates automatically NC tool paths with dynamic elimination of machining errors in 2$\frac{1}{2}$ arbitrary shaped pockets. This paper generates a spiral-like tool path by dynamic computing optimal pocket of the pocket boundary contour based on the type and size of the milling cutter, the geometry of the pocket contour and surface finish tolerance requirements. This part programming system is PC based and simultaneously generates a G-code file.

Ball-end milling process is widely used in the die and mold manufacturing because of suitable for the machining of free-form surface. Pencil cutting can eliminate overload in uncut area caused by large diameter of ball-end mill before finish cutting. As the ball-end mill for pencil cutting is long and thin, it is easily deflected by cutting force. The tool deflection when pencil cutting is one of the main reason of the machining errors on a free-from surface. The purpose of the research is to find out the characteristics of deflected cutter trajectory by eddy-current sensor.

A continuous tool-path, that is to cut continuously with the minimum number of cutter retractions during the cutting operations, is developed in order to minimise the fluctuation of cutting load and the possibility of chipping on the cutting edge in HSM (high-speed machining). This algorithm begins with the offset procedure along the boundary curve of the sculptured surface being machined. In the of offset procedure, the offset distance is determined such that the scallop height maintains a constant roughness to ensure higher levels of efficiency and quality in high-speed machining. Then, the continuous path is generated as a kind of the diagonal curve between the offset curves. This path strategy is able to connect to neighbor paths without cutter retractions. Therefore, the minimum tool retraction tool-path can be generated And, it allows the sculptured surface incorporating both steep and flat areas to be high-speed machined.

This paper describes an interpolation method for a parametric surface. A parametric surface is approximated to triangular mesh surfaces and then the basic paths are achieved. As the generated path is a series of linear segments, this algorithm can be easily adapted to general NC controllers. The generated paths have minimal transfer length and are gouge-free within the approximation tolerance. The problems, induced when the paths are represented by linear segments, are overcome without making any path deviation by this algorithm. This algorithm saves machining time by eliminating overdetermined tool paths and keeping the desired average feedrate, which improve productivity and lead to lower production costs.

This study presents a new type of CNC interpolator that is capable of generating cutter paths for ball-end milling of NURBS surfaces. The proposed surface interpolator comprises real-time algorithms for cutter contact (CC) path scheduling and CC path interpolator. Especially in this study, a new interpolator module to regulate cutting forces is developed. This propose algorithm utilizes variable-feedrate commands along the CC path according to the curvature of machined surfaces during the interpolation process. Additionally, it proposes an OpenGL graphic library for computer graphics and animation of interpolated tool-position display. The proposed interpolator is evaluated and compared with the existing method based on constant feedrates through computer simulations.

This study describes the selection of optimum machining conditions for a high-hardness resin by using a large 5-axis machine. The experiments were conducted to examine the main factors that affect the surface roughness, such as the spindle speed, axial and radial depths of the cut, and pattern of the cutter path. To analyze the experiment results, the factor with the biggest impact on machining was determined using the smaller-the-better characteristic of the Taguchi method; the effectiveness of the experiment was then confirmed by verifying the selected optimum machining condition.
