In order to suggest the proper optimal conditions of the CNC milling machining for the Thin-wall surface, some experiments were carried out. The process was applied in the aerospace industry for the machining of light alloys, notably aluminium. In recent year, however, the mold and die industry has begun to use the technology for the production of components, including those manufactured from hardened tool steels. And the end mill is an important tool in the milling process. A typical example for the end mill is the milling of pocket and slot in which a lot of material is removed from the workpiece. Therefore the proper selection of cutting parameter for end milling is one of the important factors affecting the cutting cost. In this paper, we choose the optimal parameters(cutting forces) to cut thin-walled Al part by experiment.

Machining performance in hard turning of hardened AISI M2 steel has been studied. Ceramic tools were used in the cutting tests without coolants and workpiece was prepared by heat treatment to increase its hardness up to Rc 60. Cutting state parameters such as cutting forces, temperature, and tool wear were measured in the experiments and effects of tool wear on cutting states were investigated.

Experimental study was conducted for finding the characteristics of machining precision according to the change of feedrate when ball endmilling of semisphere shape. The values of tool deflection and cutting force were measured simultaneously by the systems of eddy-current sensor and dynamometer. The machining precision was analyzed by roundness values, which were deeply relating with tool deflection and forces. the roundness was decreased in down-milling than in up-milling for each feedrate. As the cutting edge is moved to radius direction on the tool path, the tool deflection and the cutting force were seemed to be decreased. As the tool path was moved downward, the values of roundness, cutting force and tool deflection were obtained better ones. When compared the values of roundness, cutting force and tool deflection for different feedrate, the best machining accuracy was obtained at feed rate of 90mm/min in down-milling.

This investigation deals with machining AISI 52100 steel using a carbide-coated tool. The machining cutting force and tool tip temperature are measured online while turning using different cutting parameters. The surface roughness is also measured, but off-line after each cut. The obtained data are analyzed and the influence of the cutting parameters on the machining variables is determined in the form of plots. Regression models obtained from the results are tested using additional experimental data.

Reducing the wafer breakage rate and sawing thinner wafers will decrease the cost of solar cells. This study was carried out in order to identify ways to achieve this goal. In this study, the cutting force characteristics using an ingot tilting-type diamond multi wire-sawing machine were analyzed. The cutting force was analyzed while varying the tilting angles and wire speed. The obtained data were analyzed by classifying the tangential cutting force and the normal cutting force. In this cutting force experiment, the difference between the forces was confirmed; it was found that it rises with increasing the tilting angles and decreases when the wire speed elevates. The resulting value can be utilized as basic data for the determination of an ideal cutting recipe.

The technique of high speed machining is widely studied in machining fields, because the high efficiency and accuracy in machining can be obtained in high speed machining. Unfortunately the development of tool for high speed machining in not close behind that of machine tool. In this study, several types flat endmill is prepared for obtaining data according to tool shape. Especially, we concentrated in helix angle, number of cutting edge, rake angle and relief angle. Machinability is measured by cutting force, tool life, tool wear, chip shape and surface roughness according to cutting length. 3-axis cutting forces are acquired from the invented tool dynamometer for high speed machining. Particularly, we found out that the axial cutting force waveform has a good relation with tool wear features. By above results, it is suggested the endmill tool with $45^{\circ}$ helix angle, 6 cutting edge, $-15^{\circ}$ rake angle and $12^{\circ}$ relief angle be suitable for high speed machining

Considering the run-out effect and cutting force coefficients, the cutting force profile of half immersion end-milling was analyzed in detail. The effects of three specific cutting-force coefficients and three edge-force coefficients are verified. Through a detailed investigation, it is proved that the radial cutting force coefficients and are the major factors which increase the cutting forces Fx and Fy in end-milling. However, the axial cutting force coefficients have no influence on the force Fx and Fy changes in end-milling. Also, the analyzed end-milling force model shows good consistency with the actual measured force with regard to Fx and Fy. Thus, this model can be used for the prediction of the force history in end-milling with run-out, and it incurs a different force history with different start and exit immersion angles as well as holding effects.

In end milling process, which is characterized by the use of a rotating tool, the undeformed chip thickness varies periodically with phase change of the tool. Although many efforts have concentrated on the study of end milling process, the analysis of shear and chip-tool friction behaviors has not been reported. Recently, a model has been proposed to simulate the shear and friction characteristics of an up-end milling process in terms of the equivalent oblique cutting. In the current study, the varying undeformed chip thickness and the cutting forces in a down-end milling process are replaced with the equivalent ones of oblique cutting. Then it is possible to simulate the shear and the chip-tool friction characteristics of a down-end milling process. The proposed model has been verified through two sets of cutting tests i.e., down-end milling and the equivalent oblique cutting tests. The experimental results show that the proposed model is suitable to analyze the shear and chip-tool frictional characteristics of down-end milling process. The specific cutting energy decreases with increase in equivalent undeformed chip thickness in a down-end milling process.

The main purpose of this study strongly concerned micro machining error estimation by using FEM analysis of tool deflection shapes in micro flat end-milling process. For the precision micro flat end-milling process, analysis of micro cutting errors is mandatory. In general, tool deflection is a major factor which causes cutting error and limits realization of the high-precision cutting process. Especially, in micro end-milling process, micro tool deflection generates very serious problems in contrast to macro tool deflection. Methods which deal with compensation of cutting error by tool deflection in macro end-milling process have been studied plentifully but, few researches transact with micro scaled cutting tool deflection in micro cutting process. Therefore, the trend of micro tool deflection was estimated by using FEM analysis in this paper. Cutting forces were acquired by micro dynamometer and these were utilized in FEM analysis. In order to verify FEM analysis results, micro machining processes were carried out and real machined profiles were compared with FEM results. Finally through the proposed approach well suited FEM results were obtained.

Carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP) composites have been widely used due to their great strength, stiffness and light weight. However, due to its anisotropy and inhomogeneous properties the machining process of CFRP composites is typically more complex than that of regular metals. Since there are many defects, such as delamination and tool wear during the machining process of CFRP composites, the optimization of this process is essential in improving the productivity. In this study, orthogonal machining of CFRP composites was performed to identify the machining characteristics of these materials. In addition, an experimental observation of delamination was investigated through the use of scanning electron microscopy (SEM). In these experiments, the cutting forces were measured and analyzed to determine the difference between machining of CFRP composites and metals. The comparison between the numerical models and experimental results was performed in terms of the maximum cutting forces.
