Abstract

High-speed milling machine is being sold mainly in the market of die and mold industries, because it reduces machining time greatly as proportion to the spindle speed of machine tool. From the experimental milling tests, it has been cleared that the ball end mill is quite suitable for high speed milling and also tool wear reduces in higher speed milling condition. And a new milling concept with ultra high speed over 100, 000 rpm is proposed for solving the various problems such as NC cutter path generation and NC feed conformity etc.
