A new approach for modelling and simulation of the cutting forces in end milling processes is presented. In this approach, the cutting forces in end milling are modelled based on a predictive machining theory, in which the machining characteristic factors are predicted from input data of fundamental workpiece material properties, tool geometry and cutting conditions. In the model, each tooth of a end milling cutter is divided into a number of slices along the cutter axis. The cutting action of each of the slices is modelled as an oblique cutting process. For the first slice of each tooth, it is modelled as oblique cutting with end cutting edge effect, whereas the cutting actions of other slices are modelled as oblique cutting without end cutting edge effect. The cutting forces in the oblique cutting processes are predicted using a predictive machining theory. The total cutting forces acting on the cutter is obtained as the sum of the forces at all the cutting slices of all the teeth. A Windows-based simulation system for the cutting forces in end milling is developed using the model. Experimental milling tests have been conducted to verify the simulation system.

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.

There are many dynamic properties in measured end-milling force. So, it is difficult to predict the real static property of end-milling force. Also the behavior of end-milling force is very complex to predict with the measured one. To extract the static property from measured force, it must be filtered and its problem is closely related to a de-noising one. Also this paper presents alternative de-noising method of end-milling force using wavelet filter bank, based on the wavelet transform and its inverse one. In this paper, by comparing the measured force and its wavelet filtered one, the fundamental end-milling force property after wavelet transform is well reviewed and analyzed. This result of wavelet filtering with filter bank shows the static force of end-milling which has severe dynamic properties occurring in entry and exit state of edge emersion into the workpiece.

In this work a dynamic cutting force model in ball end milling of inclined surface is introduced. To represent the complex cutting geometry in ball end milling of inclined surface, workpiece is modeled with Z-map method and cutting edges are divided into finite cutting edge elements. As tool rotates and vibrates, a finite cutting edge element makes two triangular sub-patches. Using the number of nodes in workpiece which are in the interior of sub-patches, instant average uncut chip thickness is derived. Instant dynamic cutting forces are computed with the chip thickness and cutting coefficients. The deformation of cutting tool induced by cutting farces is also computed. With iterative computation of these procedures, a dynamic cutting force model is generated. The model is verified with several experiments.

A burr is formed in every corner of parts as a result of machining, which produces undesirable edge geometry and influence deeply to surface quality of workpiece. Therefore these burrs must be removed certainly. The cost of removing these burrs is directly proportional to their size. Burrs have been among the most troublesome obstruction to high productivity and automation of machining processes. The proper selection of cutting condition and tool geometry will be helpful to reduce the occurrence of burrs. In paper will observe burr formation along helix angle in end milling and certificate experimentally mechanics relation of helix angle and burr formation.

This research suggests a cutting force model for the ball end milling processes. This model includes the effect of tool run out and tool deflection. In the proposed model, the flutes of ball end mills are considered as series of infinitesimal elements and each cutting edge is assumed to be straight for the analysis of the oblique cutting process, in which the small cutting edge element has been analyzed as an orthogonal cutting process n the plane including the cutting velocity and the chip-flow vector. Therefor, the cutting forces can be calculated through the model using the orthogonal cutting data obtained from the orthogonal cutting test. In order to enhance the performance of the model, the flutes of ball end mill are defined to keep geometric consistency at the peak of the ball part and the junction with the end mill part. The divided infinitesimal cutting edges are regulated to be even lengths. Some experiments show the validity of the developed model in the various cutting coalitions.

In this study, a cutting force in the Ball-end milling process is calculated using Z-map. Z-map can describe any type of cutting area resulting from the previous cutting geometry and cutting condition. Cutting edge of a ball-end mill is divided into infinitesimal cutting edge elements and the position of the ele- ment is projected to the cutter plane normal to the Z axis. Also the cutting area in the cutter plane is obtained by using the Z-map. Comparing this projected position with cutting area, it can be determined whether it engages in the cutting. The cutting force can be calculated by numerical integration of cutting force acting on the engaged cutting edge elements. A series of experiments such as contouring and upward/downward ramp cutting was performed to verify the calculated cutting force.

In this study, a method is proposed for the cutting force prediction of Ball-end milling process using Z-map is proposed. Any types of cutting area generated from previous cutting process can be expressed in z-map data. Cutting edge of a ball-end mill is divided into a set of finite cutting edges and the position of this edge is projected to the cross-section plane normal to the Z-axis. Comparing this projected position with Z-map data of cutting area and determining whether it is in the cutting region, total cutting force can be calculated by means of numerical integration. A series of experiments such as side cutting and upward/downard cutting was performet to verify the simulated cutting force.
