Cusp Height in Circular Surface Machining Using Ball End Mill

Sculptured surface machining plays a vital role in the process of bring new Products to the market place. A great variety of products rely on this technology for the production of the dies and moulds used in manufacturing. And, the use or CNC machines and CAD/CAM system has become a vital parts or product development process. But, cusp is inevitable by-product in sculptured surface machining, and it is very difficult to calculate the cusp height correctly. In this study, an analytical cusp height model is proposed considering the radius of the ball end mill, radius of machined workpiece and the inclined angle of convex or concave circular surface. Experiments were performed to check the validity of this proposed model and experimental results showed that the proposed cusp model were very effective.
