Cutting force and face roughness have the largest influence on precision of a structure or processing efficiency in cutting processing. Thus cutting force model and face roughness model are necessary for this interpretation. In this paper, tool path model and face roughness model which consider the blade number of a tool and a revolution speed of tool and workpiece in the worm processing using side milling cutter are presented. This model was used to forcast the cusp. Experimental results show that the predicted cusp coincides with experimental one.

A new efficient intelligent machining strategy named the Steepest Directed Tree method is presented in this study, which makes surface model discrete with triangulation meshes and the cutter paths track along the tree directions. In order to formulate these algorithms practically, it is deduced the multi-stage machining approach of uncut volume caused by cutter gouging in the course of milling using flat end mill. It is systematized the checking process the cutter interference by grouping the 6 kinds of gouging types, which yields the environment of connectivity data lists including CL-data, and then the multi-stage machining strategy, that minimizes uncut area by continuously sequencing the generative subsequent CL-paths, is shamed to determine the second tool path for the next uncut area and to compose the operating multi-stage cutting processes. The completed machining system of curved surfaces is evaluated by testing the practical machining experiments which have various kinds of shape conditions.

Profile machining using cutter diameter compensation is widely used in die and mould manufacturing. Especially automotive die makers try to use 3D-profile machining for trimming or flange dies. But the technological requirements and implementation issues haven't been defined. In this paper we summarized the requirements and issues of 3D-profile machining. Approximation of input profiles into sequences of line and helical arc is the first major issue. The second major issue is removing cutter interference from the approximated curves holding z-values when the maximum cutter diameter is given. Keeping constant machining width, local machining, path linking problems and several detail technological requirements are also discussed.

The disk cam mechanism cam produce a positive motion with a relatively few components. In the present paper a shape design of cam using the relative velocity method and the machining information analysis using the circular interpolation are introduced. In the first part of the paper a machining information at each point using the circular interpolation is taken. This study purposes the analysis method of the cutting error due to the moving path of the cutter, so that we can lead to the optimum design in a disk cam mechanism..

A marine propeller is designed for preventing cavitation priority. Cavitation is a phenomenon which is defined as the vibration or noise by dropping the pressure on the high-speed rotation of the propeller. There has to be a enough thrust on the low-speed rotation for preventing cavitation. Thus, it has to be considered in the increasing of the number of blade and the angle of wing to design the propeller. In addition, flow resistance will be increasing by narrowing the width between blades. So high quality surface roughness of the hub to minimize flow resistance is required. Interference problems with tool and neighboring surfaces often take place from this kind of characteristics of the propeller. During 5-Axis machining of these propellers, the excessive local interference avoidance, necessary to avoid interference, leads to inconsistency of cutter posture, low quality of machined surface. Therefore, in order to increase the surface quality, it is necessary to minimize the cutter posture changes and create a continuous tool path while avoiding interference. This study, by using a MC-space algorithm for interference avoidance and a MB-spline algorithm for continuous control, is intended to create a 5-Axis machining tool path with excellent surface quality. Also, an effectiveness is confirmed through a verification manufacturing.

Circular milling operations are used to enlarge die and cylinder bores, and machine airframe pockets. In this case, cutting force varies as cutting tool position relative to workpiece. This paper presents a mechanistic model of geometric uncut chip thickness by predicting time varying cutter-part intersection as the cutter travels along the circular path. Compared with experimental results, the suggested cutting force model shows a good agreement.

This paper describes an interpolation method for a parametric surface. A parametric surface is approximated to triangular mesh surfaces and then the basic paths are achieved. As the generated path is a series of linear segments, this algorithm can be easily adapted to general NC controllers. The generated paths have minimal transfer length and are gouge-free within the approximation tolerance. The problems, induced when the paths are represented by linear segments, are overcome without making any path deviation by this algorithm. This algorithm saves machining time by eliminating overdetermined tool paths and keeping the desired average feedrate, which improve productivity and lead to lower production costs.

This study describes the selection of optimum machining conditions for a high-hardness resin by using a large 5-axis machine. The experiments were conducted to examine the main factors that affect the surface roughness, such as the spindle speed, axial and radial depths of the cut, and pattern of the cutter path. To analyze the experiment results, the factor with the biggest impact on machining was determined using the smaller-the-better characteristic of the Taguchi method; the effectiveness of the experiment was then confirmed by verifying the selected optimum machining condition.

This study presents a new type of real-t~me CNC interpolator that is capable of generating cutter paths for ball-end milling of NURBS surfaces. The proposed surface interpolator comprises real-time algorithms for cutter-contact (CC) path scheduling and CC path interpolation. Especially, in this study, a new interpolator module to regulate cutting forces is developed. This proposed algorithm utilizes variable-feedrate commands according to the curvature of machined surfaces. The proposed interpolator is evaluated and compared with the conventional method based on constant feedrates through computer simulation.
