In an end milling process, the undeformed chip section area and cutting forces vary periodically with the phase change of the tool. However, the real undeformed chip section area deviates from the geometrically ideal one owing to the cutter runout and tool shape error. In the current study, a method of estimating the real undeformed chip section area which reflects the cutter runout and tool shape error is presented during up-end milling processes of Inconel 718. The specific cutting forces, $K_r$ and $K_t$ are defined as the radial and tangential cutting forces divided by the modified chip section area, respectively. Both of the $K_{r}$ and $K_t$ values become smaller as the helix angle increases from $30^{\circ}$ to $40^{\circ}$. Whereas they become larger as the helix angle increases from $40^{\circ}$ to $50^{\circ}$. The $K_r$ and $K_t$ values show a tendency to decrease with increase of the modified chip section area.a.

A tool holder system has been designed and builted to measure cutting forces in diamond turning. This system design includes a 3-component piezo-electric tranducer. Initial experiments with tool holder system included verification of its predicted dynamic characteristics as well as a detailed study of cutting parameters. In this research, tool holder system is modeled by considering the element dividing, material properties, and boundary conditions using MSC/PATRAN. Mode and frequency analysis of structure is simulated by MSC/NASTRAN, for the purpose of developing the effective design. In addition, tool holder system is verified by vibration test using accelerometer. Many cutting experiments have been conducted on 6061-T6 aluminum. Tests have involved investigation of velocity effects, and the effects of depth and feedrate on tool force. Cutting velocity has been determined to have negligible effects between 4 and 21㎧.(6) Forces generally increase with increasing depth of cut. Increasing feedrate does not necessarily lead to higher forces. Results suggest that a sample model may not be sufficient to describe the forces produced in the diamond turning process.

In this paper. a mechanistic model is first constructed to predict three-dimensional cutting forces, and the uncut chip th thickness is calculated by following the movements of the position of the center of a cutter, which varies with the nominal feed, cutter deflection and runout. For general implementation to a real machining, this paper presents the method that determines constant cutting force coefficients, irrespective of the cutting conditions or cutter rotation angles. In addition, this study presents the approach which estimates runout-related parameters. the runout offset and its location angle, using only one measurement of cutting forces. For more accurate cutting force predictions, the size effect has to be considered in the cutting force model. In this paper, two approximate methods are suggested since the strict approach is practically impossible due to a measurement problem. The size effect is individually considered for narrow and wide cuts.

Off-line feedrate scheduling is presented as the advanced technology to regulate cutting forces at the desired level through change of feedrates. In rough cutting, the feedrate scheduling aims at reducing the machining time, which is the most important factor for better productivity. Thus, the largest force which can avoid breakage of tool shank and tooth is a reference force for feedrate scheduling in rough cutting. In this paper, a calculation method of the reference cutting force for feedrate scheduling is developed. This model calculates rupture plane of tooth using the FEM analysis of a tool and computes the reference force using the transverse rupture strength of a tool. Experiments validate that the presented feedrate scheduling model reduced machining time drastically and regulate cutting forces at the reference cutting force.

In order to obtain the relation between the cutting force and the process parameters in the chamfering process for the gear of a gear shaft, analysis of the process was performed with a simplified model instead of considering the whole actual 3-dimensional cutting situation produced between cutting tool and gear. The model divided the actual situation into the accumulation of hundreds of 2-dimensional layers with a small thickness in the direction of the height of gear and derived cutting force at a cutting position by accumulating each cutting force calculated in a layer. With proposed method to analyze the cutting forces in the chamfering process, it was revealed that the cutting position and size were exactly searched to calculate the cutting force in each layer. The total cutting force was the highest in the corner where the cutter encountered the gear first during the relative motion between them. The cutting forces were changed in proportion to the cutting parameters such as feed rate and trajectory.

It is well accepted that rock failure mechanism influence the cutting efficiency and determination of optimum cutting parameters. In this paper, an attempt was made to research the factors that affect the failure mechanism based on discrete element method (DEM). The influences of cutting depth, hydrostatic pressure, cutting velocity, back rake angle and joint set on failure mechanism in rock-cutting are researched by PFC2D. The results show that: the ductile failure occurs at shallow cutting depths, the brittle failure occurs as the depth of cut increases beyond a threshold value. The mean cutting forces have a linear related to the cutting depth if the cutting action is dominated by the ductile mode, however, the mean cutting forces are deviate from the linear relationship while the cutting action is dominated by the brittle mode. The failure mechanism changes from brittle mode with larger chips under atmospheric conditions, to ductile mode with crushed chips under hydrostatic conditions. As the cutting velocity increases, a grow number of micro-cracks are initiated around the cutter and the volume of the chipped fragmentation is decreasing correspondingly. The crack initiates and propagates parallel to the free surface with a smaller rake angle, but with the rake angle increases, the direction of crack initiation and propagation is changed to towards the intact rock. The existence of joint set have significant influence on crack initiation and propagation, it makes the crack prone to propagate along the joint.

The cutting automation of boat's wooden pattern is strongly required to improve the productivity and quality of boats in leisure boat industry. This paper is concerned with the development of wooden pattern machining technology by the machining center. The leisure boat is designed with a 3 dimensional design s/w.

In this paper, we suggest a virtual machining system that can simulate cutting forces of ball end milling at the stage of part design. Cutting forces, here, are estimated from the machanistic model that uses the concept of specific cutting farce coefficient. To this end, we need undeformed chip thickness which is used for calculating chip load. It is derived from the Z-map data of a CAD model. That is, chip load is the height difference between the cutting tool and the workpiece at an arbitrary position. The tool contact point is referred from the cutter location data. On the other hand, the workpiece height is acquired from the Z-map model of a CAD data. From the experimental verification, we can simulate machining process effectively to the slot and the side cutting of ball end mill.

Many researches on the prediction of cutting forces of ball-end mil is have been achieved since before several decades ago. These kinds of researches have been concentrated on the study on how to make the prediction equations for the cutting forces based on 2-D cutting experimentation. The results of them were really good and impressive. But it's not proper to practical uses for industrial fields, because if sculptured surface were to be machined, then it would be very difficult to understand the complicated kinematical interaction between the sculptured surface and the flutes of a ball-end mill. So, we propose the method for solving these kind of problems using existed commercial CAD/CAM software; Unigraphics. Furthermore, the modification of tool path which is done off line is offered to increase the precision of cutting.
