One of the main research directions in CAD/CAM machining area is the reducing of machining time. The feedrate scheduling is one of the advanced techniques that allows keeping constant the uncut chip area and as sequel to keep constant the main cutting force. They are two main ways for feedrate optimization. The first consists in the cutting force monitoring, which presumes to use complex equipm...

Original scientific paper In this paper, the orthogonal cutting force model is proposed comprising forces due to flank wear in addition to the forces for chip formation during the hard turning of round bar made of steel 60WCrV7 hardened at 55+2HRc. Cutting force model includes two tool conditions: perfectly sharp tool with VBB = 0 and tool with maximum permissible flank wear VBBmax. Based on cu...

The present paper discusses on development of fuzzy rule based models (FRBMs) for predicting cutting force and surface roughness in milling operation. The models use TakagiSugeno-Kang-type (TSK-type) fuzzy rule to study the effect of four (input) cutting parameters (cutting speed, feed rate, radial depth of cut and axial depth of cut) on outputs (cutting force and surface roughness). The approp...

Assumption of cutting disturbances in hard turning process (caused by variations in depth of cutting, high passive force Fp or small tool nose radius) could be confirmed with several indicators. These indicators can be monitored during turning process(forces, vibrations, sound, etc.) or after process has been finished (roughness, temperature, wear, etc). Variation of depth of cutting as well as...

To establish a method of determining the machinability of dental materials for CAD/CAM systems, the machinability of titanium, two titanium alloys (Ti-6Al-4V and Ti-6Al-7Nb), and free-cutting brass was evaluated through cutting force and spindle motor current. The metals were slotted using a milling machine and square end mills at four cutting conditions. Both the static and dynamic components ...

There is considerable evidence to support a number of biomechanical risk factors associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. This paper aims to review these biomechanical risk factors and highlight future directions relating to them. Current perspectives investigating trunk position and relationships between strength, muscle activity and biomechanics during landing/cutt...

To improve the cutting efficiency, one of key approaches is to control with constant force in the full depth working condition. And the controller design is vital to realize the real-time feasibility and robustness of the system. A neuron optimization based PID approach is proposed in this paper and adopted in the NC cutting process. This approach optimizes the parameters of PID controller real...
