A mechanistic force system model considering the flank wear for the face milling process has been developed. The model predicts variation of the cutting forces according to flank wear in face milling over a range of cutting conditions, cutter geometries and cutting process geometries including relative positions of cutter to workpiece and rounouts. Flycutting and multitoth cutting teste were conducted on SS41 mild steel with sintered carbide tool. In order to verify the mechanistic force model considering the flank wear of cutting tools, a series of experiments was performed with single and multitooth cutters in various cutting conditions. The results show good agreement between the predicted and measured cutting force profiles and magnitudes in time and frequency domains.

For improvement of productivity and cutting tool lift, cutting force in end milling needs to be predicted accurately. In order to analyze cutting force, the cutting dynamics was modelled mathematically by using chip load, cutting geometry, and the relationship between cutting forces and the chip load. Specific cutting force coefficients of the cutting dynamics model were obtained by average cutting forces, tool diameter, cutting speed, fled, axial depth and radial depth of cut. The effects of the cutting conditions on the specific cutting force constants in milling were studied. The model is verified through comparisons of model predicted cutting forces with measured cutting forces obtained from machining experiments.

Monitoring of the cutting force signals in cutting process has been well emphasized in machine tool communities. Although the cutting force can be directly measured by a tool dynamometer, this method is not always feasible because of high cost and limitations in setup. In this paper an indirect cutting force monitoring system is developed so that the cutting force in turning process is estimated based on a AC spindle drive model. This monitoring system considers the cutting force as a disturbance input to the spindle drive and estimates the cutting force based on the inverse dynamic model. The inverse dynamic model represents the dynamic relation between the cutting force, the motor torque and the motor power. The proposed monitoring system is realized on a CNC lathe and its estimation performance is evaluated experimentally.

This paper proposes an analytical model of off-line feed rate scheduling to obtain an optimum feed rate for high speed machining. Off-line feed rate scheduling is presented as an advanced technology to regulate cutting forces through change of feed per tooth, which directly affects variation of uncut chip thickness. In this paper, the feed rate scheduling model was developed using a mechanistic cutting force model using cutting-condition-independent coefficients. First, it was verified that cutting force coefficients are not changed with respect to cutting speed. Thus, the feed rate scheduling model using the cutting-condition-independent coefficients can be applied to set the proper feed rates for high speed machining as well as normal machining. Experimental results show that the developed fred rate scheduling model makes it possible to maintain the cutting force at a desired level during high speed machining.

In this study, investigated are the effects of tool rake angles and the change of cutting conditions on the specific cutting pressure in face milling. The cutting force in face milling is predicted from the double cutting edge model in3-dimensional cutting. Conventional specific cutting pressure model is modified by considering the variation of tool rake angles. Effectiveness of the modified cutting force model is verified by the experiments using special face milling cutters with different cutter pockets and various rake angles. From the comparison of the presented model and the specific cutting pressure, it is shown that the axial force can be predicted by the tangential force, radial force and geometric conditions. Also, the rela- tionship between specific cutting pressure and cutting conditions including feedrate, cutting velocity and depth of cut is studied.

Indexable end mills, which consist of inserts and cutter body, have been widely used in roughing of parts in the mold industry. The geometry and distribution of inserts on cutter body are determined by application. This paper proposes analytical cutting force model for indexable flat end-milling process. Developed cutting force model uses the cutting-condition-independent cutting force coefficients and considers runout, cutter deflection and size effect for the accurate cutting force prediction. Unlike solid type endmill, the tool geometry of indexable endmill is variable according to the axial position due to the geometry and distribution of inserts on the cutter body. Thus, adaptive algorithm that calculates tool geometry data at arbitrary axial position was developed. Then number of flute, angular position of flute, and uncutchip thickness are calculated. Finally, presented model was validated through some experiments with aluminum workpiece.

A reasonable analysis of cutting force in end milling may give much advantage to improvement of productivity and cutting tool life. In order to analyze cutting force, the cutting dynamics was modelled mathematically by using chip load, cutting geometry, and the relationship between cutting forces and the chip load. Specific cutting constants of the cutting dynamics model were obtained by average cutting forces, tool diameter, cutting speed, feed, axial depth, and radial depth of cut. The effects of the cutting conditions on the specific cutting force constants in milling were studied. The model is verified through comparisons of model predicted cutting forces with measured culling forces obtained from machining experiments

On face milling operation a new optimal cutter, which can minimize the resultant cutting forces, was designed from the cutting force model. Cutting experiments were carried out and the cutting forces of the new and conventional cutters were analyed in time and frequency domains. The resultant cutting forces were used as the objective function and cutter angles as the variables. A new optimal cutter design model which can minimize the resultant cutting forces under the constraints of variables was developed and its usefulness was proven. The cutting forces in feed direction of the newly designed cutter are reduced in comparison with those from the conventional cutter. The magnitudes of an insert frequency component of cutting force from the newly designed cutter are reduced than those from conventional cutter and the fluctuations of cutting force are also reduced.

In this paper, the cutting force calculation of ball-end mill processing was modeled mathematically. All derivations of cutting forces were directly based on the tangential, radial, and axial cutting force components. In the developed mathematical model of cutting forces, the relationship of average cutting force and the feed per flute was characterized as a linear function. The cutting force coefficient model was formulated by a function of average cutting force and other parameters such as cutter geometry, cutting conditions, and so on. An experimental method was proposed based on the stable milling condition to estimate the cutting force coefficients for ball-end mill. This method could be applied for each pair of tool and workpiece. The developed cutting force model has been successfully verified experimentally with very promising results.

In this study, the effect of tool rake angles and the change of cutting conditions on specific cutting pressure in face milling is investigated. The cutting force in face milling is predicted from the double cutting edge model in 3-dimensional cutting. Conventional specific cutting pressure model is modified by considering the variation of tool rake angles. Effectiveness of the modified cutting force model is verified by the experiments using special face milling cutters with different cutter pockets and various rake angles. From the comparison of the pressented model and the specific cutting pressure, it is shown that the axial force can be predicted by the tangential and redial forces without the knowledge of friction angle and shear angle. Also, the relation between specific cutting pressure and cutting cindition including feedrate, cutting velocity and depth of cut is studied.
