This paper presents an explicit pole-assignment adaptive servocontrol shceme and its application to cutting force regulation for feedrate maximization. The controller structure of the suggested adaptive control scheme is based on robust control theory. This controller structure is then combined with an on-line model estimation algorithm. The whole scheme is applied to a milling process control. The results of real time cutting experimental studies show that the asymptotic regulation of milling peak cutting forces can be achieved with robust- ness against the time varying perturbations to the process model parameters, which are caused by nonlinear cutting dynamics.

This study presents the analysis of ball end milling machinability and its application to the determination of the optimum feedrate in the CNC machining process of sculptured surface. The methods which estimate the cutting force system is approached experimentally. The estimation strategy, named technological processor, was applied to the machining process of sculptured surface for finding optimum variable feedrate. From the result of practical implementation for the test model, it is ascertain that the technological processor have brought the dispersion of force profiles. As compared with conventional imposing of cutting conditions, the machining time has reduced by more than 60%.

Machining accuracy is closely related with tool deflection induced by cutting forces. In this research, cutting forces and tool deflection in end milling are expressed as a closed form of tool rotational angle and cutting conditions. The discrete cutting fores caused by periodic tool entry and exit are represented as a continuous function using the Fourier series expansion. Tool deflection is predicted by direct integration of the distributed loads on cutting edges. Cutting conditions, tool geometry, run-outs and the stiffness of tool clamping part are considered together far cutting forces and tool deflection estimation. Compared with numerical methods, the presented method has advantages in prediction time reduction and the effects of feeding and run-outs on cutting forces and tool deflection can be analyzed quantitatively. This research can be effectively used in real time machining error estimation and cutting condition selection for error minimization since the form accuracy is easily predicted from tool deflection curve.

If the on-line cutting conditions (e.g. speed, feedrate, radial and axal depth of cuts) can be identified in an end milling process, much information about cutting forces will be estimated from the cutting force model. Therefore, those estimated conditions can be applied to monitoring and control areas. In this paper, a real-time estimation algorithm for radial and axial depth of cuts is studied in end milling using the averaging cutting forces per tooth. The analytical estimation models of depth of cuts are derived from the geometric cutting force model. The validity of the estimation models is verified on a horizontal machining center through the experiments in various cutting conditions.

This paper provides an experimental analysis on the breakage of the coated tool using the face-milling cutter of the machining center due to changes in the cutting speed and the feed rate. The experimental studies were conducted using STS 304 materials and the damage to the tool was analyzed according to the change in machining time. The experiments confirmed that the cutting speed and feed rate affected the tool damage and the mechanical impact and thermal shock were determined to severely damage the tool. From the production engineering point of view, it has been experimentally investigated that the increased feed rate significantly influences the material removal rate more than the increased cutting speed.

Surface generation model of three types of endmills is introduced to analyse the cutting mechanism of an endmill more accurately. Superposition method is introduced to define the effective cusp including the effects of cutter mark. Through the comparison of three endmills, it is shown that the ball-nose endmill is superior to the ball endmill and the flat endmill for inclined milling process in 3-or 5-axis machining modes. By using the objective function minimizing the machining time, appropriate nose radius is selected for various cutter radiuses and cutter inclination angles.

A method for form error prediction in side wall machining with a flat end mill is suggested. Form error is predicted directly from the tool deflection without surface generation by cutting edge locus with time simulation. Developed model can predict the surface form error about three hundred times faster than the previous method. Cutting forces and tool deflection are calculated considering tool geometry, tool setting error and machine tool stiffness. The characteristics and the difference of generated surface shape in up milling and down milling are discussed. The usefulness of the presented method is verified from a set of experiments under various cutting conditions generally used in die and mold manufacturing. This study contributes to real time surface shape estimation and cutting process planning for the improvement of form accuracy.

The simulation of Carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) machining facilitates the selection of optimal cutting parameter for high machining efficiency and better surface quality. In this study, This paper proposes a dual-dexel model to represent the fiber laminate with computational geometry method to calculate the fiber length removed per revolution and fiber cutting angles. A flat end milling simulation software is developed in C# to simulate and display the CFRP milling process. During simulation, fiber lengths, fiber cutting angle and engaged cutting angle can be displayed in real-time. A CFRP plate with different angles in different layer is used to compare the simulation results.

In cutting system, relative displacement between rool and workpiece is very important. Even though there have been so many works for modeling cutting process of end-milling, most of them have considered only one displacement of either tool or workpiece instead of both. In this paper, the relative displacement between tool and workpiece is considered for modeling cutting process of end-milling using simple experimental modal analysis and cutting force simulation program is developed. In cutting force model, instantaneous uncut chip thickness model is used and Runge-Kutta method is used for the simulation of time varying cutting system.

This research was carried out to investigate the possibility of real time rice milling ratio measurement using the spectral reflection characteristics. In this study, various methods were compared such as \circled1 using the whiteness meter, \circled2 using the colorimeter, \circled3 using the Visible and the NIR reflection spectrum. The samples were milled in the domain of 84~96% by 0.5% interval classified by milling ratio. The NMG treatment method required about 20 minutes to determine the milled ratio and r2 was 0.0028 to 0.7959 that was very low. In case of whiteness meter, r2 was high but speed of measurement was 5 minutes that was very low. Measurement with the colorimeter required about 5 minutes and r2 was 0.60 to 0.85 that was low. The reflection spectrum were measured in the range of 400~2,500nm with 2nm interval and the MLR model with six-wavelength obtained from first derivative of spectra gave the best results(r2 = 0.967, SEP = 0.729%)
