The surface,generated by end milling operation, is deteriorated by tool runout,vibration,friction,tool deflection, etc. In many source,deflection of tool affects to surfave accuracy. To develop a surface accracy model,method for the prediction of the topography of machined surfaces has been developed based on models of machine tool kinematics and cutting tool geometry. This model accounts for not only the ideal geometrical surface, but also the deflection of tool resulted in cutting force. For the more accurate prediction of cutting force,flexible end mill model is used to simulate cutting process. Compute simu;ation have shown the feasibility of the surface generation system.

The most important thing in measuring the tool wear is to set up the measurement base. The end mill that is being used for machining is difficult to set up the base and to measure the tool wear because of geometric properties of that such as a helix and relief angle. In this study, a new instrument using spindle orientation function in end milling is developed to measure tool wear and evaluated by measuring system on the machine. Finally, this new method makes possible the wear measurement of same position and reduces measuring time compared with measuring methods such as the microscope and CCD.

In modem manufacturing industries such as the airplane and automobile, aluminum alloys which are remarkable in durability have been utilized effectively. High-speed machining technology for surface roughness quality of workpiece has been applied in these fields. Higher cutting speed and feedrates lead to a reduction of machining time and increase of surface quality. Furthermore, the reduction of time required for polishing or lapping of machined surfaces improves the production rate. Traditional milling process for high speed cutting can be machined with end mill tool. However, such processes are generally cost-expensive and have low material removal rate. Thus, in this paper, face milling cutter which gives high MRR has developed face milling cutter body for the high speed machining of light alloy to overcome the problems. Also vibration experiment to detect natural frequency in free state and frequency characteristics during machining are performed to escape resonance.

This paper presents an accurate cutting simulation and feedrate scheduling system for CNC machining. This system is composed of a cutting simulation part and a feedrate scheduling part. The cutting simulation part computes the geometric informations and calculates the cutting forces in CNC machining. The cutting force model using cutting-condition-independent coefficients was introduced for flat end milling and ball end milling. The feedrate scheduling part divides original blocks of NC code into smaller ones with optimized feedrates to adjust the peak value of cutting forces to reference forces. Some machining examples show that the developed system can control the cutting force at desired levels.

This paper presents development of a pratical tool deflection compensation system in order to reduce the machining error by the tool deflection in the end-milling process. The system is a tool adapter which includes 2-axis force sensor for detecting tool deflection and 2-axis tool tilting device for adjusting tool position through computer interface in on-line process. In experiments, it is revealed that the force sensor applying parallel plate principle and strain gauge is proper to obtain dynamic process signal, and the tilting device using stepping motor and cam drive mechanism is suitable to have necessary action. By the system and control algorithm, it is possible to get precise machining surface profile without excessive machining error and overcut generated due to increased cutting force in more productive machining condition.

The main goal of our research is to compensate the milled surface errors induced by the tool deflection effects, which occur during the milling process. First, we predict cutting forces and tool deflection amount. Based on predicted deflection effects, we model milled surface shapes. We present a compensation methodology , which can generate a new tool trajectory, which is determined so as to compensate the milled surface errors. By considering manufacturing tolerance, tool path compensation is generalized. To validate the approaches proposed in this paper, we treat an illustrative example of profile milling process by using flat end mill. Simulation and experimental results are shown.

In the end milling process, the information of the surface errors plays an important role in adaptive control systems for precision machining. As the measuring accuracy of the surface errors directly matches the control's, it is an important factor for evaluating the performance of the system. In order to obtain the surface errors, the prediction using the cutting force, torque, motor power etc. is frequently practiced owing to the easiness in measurement. In the implementation of the prediction, the information on the cutting depths make it concrete and precise. Actually the axial depth of cut limits the range of the calculation. In general, it is not easy to know the cutting depths due to irregular shape of workpieces, inaccurate positioning of them on the table of machine tool, and machining error in the previous cutting. In addition to, even if cutting depths are informed, it is difficult to match the individual position of the cutter on the varying shape of the work material. This work suggests an algorithm estimating the cutting depths based on cutting force and makes it precise to predict the surface error. The proposed algorithm can be applied in more extensive cutting situations, such as presence of the tool wear, change of the work material hardness, etc.

Cutter deflections in the ball-end milling process is one of the main causes of the machining errors on a free-form surface. In order to avoid machining errors in this process, a methodology avoiding these machining errors on the free-form surfaces has been developed. In this method, feedrates in the finish cuts are adjusted for the prevention of machining errors. A model for the prediction of machining errors on the free-form surface is analytically derived as a function of feed and normal vector at the surface of contact point by the cutter. This model is applied to the dertermination of the adjusted feedrates which satisfy the machining tolerance of the surface. In the finish cuts of a simple curved surface, the suggested model is examined by the measurements of the generated machining error on this surface. And also, this surface is machined with the adjusted feedrates for the given machining tolerance. The measured machining errors on this surface are compared with the given tolerance. In this comparisons, it is shown that the predicted errors are fairly good agreement with the test results.

This paper presents adaptive cutting force control in milling process using indirect cutting force measurement. The cutting forces in X, Y, and Z axes are measured indirectly from the sensing current of the feed-drive servo motor. After modelling the feed-drive system of a horizontal machining center, the relation between the cutting force and the servo motor current is analyzed. The pulsating milling forces are measured from the sensing current within the bandwidth of the servo. It is shown that indirect cutting farce measurement can be used in adaptive cutting force control. The adaptive control scheme which is globally convergent and stable is attached to a commercial CNC machining center. Cutting experiments on end milling are performed for diagonal cutting.

Free-form surface machining is usually performed with an NC milling machine and a ball end milling cutter. Since this conventional method is basically sculpting on a plane, it is not suitable for three dimensional body machining. This article will introduce a new machining method for three dimensional body with free-form surface and newly developed machine tool suitable for such machining.
