Improving Cycle Time in Sculptured Surface Machining Through Force Modeling
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, an enhanced mathematical model is presented for the prediction of cutting force system in ball end milling of sculptured surfaces. This force model is also used as the basis for off-line feed rate scheduling along the tool path in order to decrease the cycle time in sculptured surface machining. As an alternative for setting a constant feed rate all along the tool path in rough machining of sculptured surfaces, resultant cutting forces are aimed to be kept under a pre-set threshold value along the tool path by off-line scheduled piecewise variable feed rates. In this paper, it is shown that machining time, depending on complexity of sculptured surfaces, can be decreased significantly by scheduling feed rate along the tool path. The model is tested under various cutting conditions and some of the results are also presented and discussed in the paper.

متن کاملNon-Isoparametric Three Axis NC tool path generation for finish machining of sculptured surfaces
Sculptured surfaces are usually machined to their final shapes by a series of rough and finish passes. After each pass, excess material may be left at some concave or C1 discontinuous areas. Traditionally these undercut areas are “cleaned up” by repeatedly machining the whole surface with progressively smaller cutting tools. We present an algorithm for automatically identifying areas with exces...
