Development of a Virtual Machining System by a CAD Model Based Cutting Simulation

CAD 모델에 기초한 모사절삭을 통한 가상절삭시스템 개발

In this research,we suggest a virtual machining system that can simulate sutting forces at the stage of design. Cutting forces,here, are modeled form the machanistic model of the ball end milling. To this end, we need undeformed chip thickness which is used for calculating chip load. It is derived form the z-map data of a CAD model. That is, chip load is the height difference between the cutting tool contact point and the workpiece at arbitrary position. The tool contact point is referred from the cutter location. Form the experimental verification, we can simulate machining process effectively to the slot and the side cutting of ball end mill.
