Studies on the optimization of machining process can be divided into two different approaches: off-line feedrate scheduling and adaptive control. Each approach possesses its respective strong and weak points compared to each other. That is, each system can be complementary to the other. In this regard, a combined system, which is a feedrate control system fur cutting force optimization, was proposed in this paper to make the best of each approach. Experimental results show that the proposed system could overcome the weak points of the off-line feedrate scheduling system and the adaptive control system. In addition, from the figure, it can be confirmed that the off-line feedrate scheduling technique can improve the machining quality and can fulfill its function in the machine tool which has a adaptive controller.

생산스케쥴링의 기준이 되는 정보는 각 부품의 생산시간이나 생산비용인데, 이들은 고정된 값으로 취급되는 경우가 많다. 그러나, 실제적으로는 가공조건에 의하여 그 값들이 변화한다. 가공조거는 절삭깊이(depth of cut), 이송속도(feed rate), 및 절삭속도(cutting speed)로 구성되어 있다. 본 연구에서는 주어진 조건에 있어서 가공의 최적절삭조건을 최적이론의 하나인 페널티 함수이론(SUMT)을 이용하여 결정하는 할고리즘을 개발하였다. 알고리즘에서 목표함수(objective functions)로는 표면거칠기, 파워 소비, 등을 고려했다. 개발된 알고리즘 프로그램의 유용성을 증명하기 위해 선반가공의 예를 실행하여 그 결과를 예시하였다.

Single point incremental forming (SPIF) is a sheet-forming technique. It is a die-less sheet metal manufacturing process for rapid prototyping and small batch production. The Critical parameters in the forming process include tool diameter, step depth, feed rate, spindle speed, etc. In this study, these parameters and the die shape corresponding to the Varying Wall Angle Conical Frustum(VWACF) model were used for forming 0.8mm in thick Al5052-O sheets. The Taguchi method of Experiments of Design (DOE) and Grey relational optimization were used to determine the optimum parameters in SPIF. A response study was performed on formability, spring back, and thickness reduction. The research shows that the optimum combination of these parameters that yield best performance of SPIF is as follows: tool diameter, 6mm; spin speed, 60rpm; step depth, 0.3mm; and feed rate, 500mm/min.

최근의 절삭가공 생산시스템은 무인자동화,고속화,정밀화로 대별되면서 생산성을 극대화시킬려는 방향으로 연구 가 진행되고 있다. 종래의 CNC화된 기계가공시스템에서는 절삭속도,이송속도 그리고 절삭깊이 등과 같은 절삭 조건은 On-line으로 조절되는 장치를 갖지 않고 Off-line으로 프로그래머의 경험이나 절삭가공의 데이터 핸드북을 통하여 결정되어진다. 이러한 절삭조건은 절삭률 즉 생산성의 측면에서 최적의 값이 될 수가 없다. 이는 프로그래머가 측면에서 최적의 값이 될 수가 없다. 이는 프로그래머가 공구의 마모나 표면거칠기, 또는 공작기계의 부하 등을 고려하여 극적으로 NC프로그램을 짜기 때문이다. 이러한 문제점 때문에 현재 개발되어지고 있는 대부분의 적응제어시스템은 실용화가 되지못하고 있는 실정이어서 효휼적인 적응시스템의 개발은 필수적이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 무인자동화 가공시스템에서 생산성을 최대화하기 위하여 사용하는 ACO 시스템에서 발생하는 상기의 문제를 해결하여 실용화할 수 있는 가공 최적화 시스템을 개발함을 연구의 목적으로 하고 있다.

Off-line feed rate scheduling is an advanced methodology to automatically determine optimum feed rates for the optimization of NC code. However, the present feed rate scheduling systems have lim~tations to generate the optimized NC codes because they use the material removal rate or non-generalized cutting force model. In this paper, a feed rate scheduling system based on an improved cutting force model that can predrct cutting forces exactly in general machining was presented. Original blocks of NC code were divided to small ones with the modified feed rates to adjust the peak value of cutting forces to a constant vale. The characteristic of acceleration and deceleration for a given machrne tool was considered when off-line feed rate scheduhng was performed. Software for the NC code optimization was developed and applied to pocket machining simulation.

Linear motor feed drive systems have been broadly used in machine tools or precision automatic feed systems. Recently, modem machine tools require high speed and high precision feed drive system to achieve high productivity. Unfortunately, a feed drive system, even though it was optimum designed, may experience severe transient vibrations during high-speed operation if its feed rate control is unsuitable. A rough feed rate curve having discontinuity in its acceleration profile causes a serious vibration problem in the feed slides system. This paper presents a feed rate optimization of a machine tool feed slide system, which is driven by a linear motor, for its minimum vibrations. Firstly, a 4-degree-of-freedom lumped parameter model is proposed for the vibration analysis of a linear motor driven machine tool feed drive system. Next, a feed rate optimization of the feed slide is carried out for minimum vibrations. The feed rate curve optimization strategy is to find out the most appropriate acceleration profile with jerk continuity. Of course, the optimized feed rate should approximate to the desired one as possible. A genetic algorithm with variable penalty function was used in this feed rate optimization.

Ball screw feed drive systems have been broadly used in machine tools or precision automatic feed systems. Recently, modern machine tools require high speed and high precision and drive system to achieve high productivity. Unfortunately, a feed drive system, even though it was optimum designed, may experience severe transient vibrations during high-speed operation if its feed rate control is unsuitable. A rough feed rate curve having discontinuity in its acceleration profile causes a serious vibration problem in the feed slide system. This paper presents a feed rate optimization of a machine tool feed slide system, which is driven by a ball screw, for its minimum vibrations. Firstly, a 6-degree-of-freedom lumped parameter model was proposed for the vibration analysis of a ball screw driven machine tool feed drive system. Next, a feed rate optimization of the feed slide was carried out for minimum vibrations. The feed rate curve optimization strategy is to find out the most appropriate acceleration profile having finite jerk. Of course, the optimized feed rate should approximate to the desired one as possible. A genetic algorithm with variable penalty function was used in this feed rate optimization.

Feedrate is one of the factors that have the significant effects on the productivity, qualify and tool life in the cutting mechanism as well as cutting velocity, depth of cut and width of cut. In this study, in order to realize the high-efficient machining, a new feedrate optimization method is proposed based on the concept that the optimum feedrate can be derived from the allowable cutting power since the cutting power can be predicted from the cutting parameters as feedrate, depth of cut, width of cut, chip thickness, engagement angle, rake angle, specific cutting force and so on. Tool paths are extracted from the original NC program via the reverse post-processing process and converted into the infinitesimal tool paths via the interpolation process. And the novel NC program is reconstructed by optimizing the feedrate of infinitesimal tool paths. Especially, the fast feedrate optimization is realized by using the Boolean operation based on the Goldfeather CSG rendering algorithm, and the simulation results reveal the availability of the proposed optimization method dramatically reducing the cutting time and/or the optimization time. As a result, the proposed optimization method will go far toward improving the productivity and qualify.

High speed machining for higher cutting speed and feedrate lead to a increase of surface quality and material removal rate. This paper presents a study of the influence of cutting conditions on the vibration characteristics obtained by machining with face milling cutter for high speed machining. In this paper, Taguchi experimental design method which is based on orthogonal array table was applied to study vibration characteristics with high speed face milling cutter. The experimental conditions used orthogonal array of $L_{27}(3^{13})$. In this work, design and analysis of experiments is conducted to study the effects of these parameters on the vibration by using the S/N ratio, analysis of variance. Four cutting parameters namely, feed rate, champer length, cutting speed, and depth of cut were optimized with consideration of vibration characteristics.
