Burrs formed during face milling operations are very hard to characterize like other machining burrs because there are many parameters which affect the cutting process. Many researchers have tried to predict burr characteristics including burr size and shapes with various experimental conditions such as cutting speed, feed rate, in-plane exit angle, number of inserts, etc., but it still remains as a challenging problem for the complicated combination effects between the parameters. In this paper, Taguchi method, which is a systematic optimization application of design and analysis of experiments, is introduced to acquire optimum cutting parameters for burr minimization. Optimized experimental conditions are provided to show the effectiveness of this approach.

In tool condition monitoring systems, parameters should be set to a certain threshold. In many cases, however, the threshold is dependent on cutting conditions, especially the radial immersion ratio. In this presented is a method of on-line estimation of the radial immersion ratio in face milling. When a tooth finishes sweeping, a sudden drop of cutting force occurs. The force drop is equal to the cutting force that acting on a tooth at the swept angle of cut and can be acquired from cutting force signals in feed and cross-feed directions. Average cutting force per tooth period can also be calculated from cutting force signals in two directions. The ratio to cutting forces in two directions acting on a tooth at a certain swept angle of cut and the ratio of average cutting forces in two directions per tooth period are functions of the swept angle of cut and the ratio of radial to tangential cutting forces. Using these parameters, the radial immersion ratio is estimated. Various experiments are performed to verify the proposed method. The results show that the radial immersion ratio can be estimated by this method regardless of other cutting conditions.

An indirect cutting torque and cutting force estimation method is presented. This method uses a time-domain model between the spindle motor power, which calculated form measured spindle motor current and voltage. Spindle motor power is linear with cutting torque in this model. The cutting force is proportional to the cutting torque. Using trial cut, parameters are determined. Static sensitivity is suitable for various cutting conditions. The presented method is verified under several cutting tests on the CNC horizontal machining center.

This paper presents a study of surface roughness prediction model by experimental design in turning operation. Regression analysis technique has been used to study the effects of the cutting parameters such as cutting speed, feed and depth of cut on surface roughness. The experiment has been conducted using coated tungsten carbide inserts without cutting fluid. The reliability of the surface roughness model as a function of the cutting parameters has been estimated. The results show that the experimental design used in cutting process is a method to estimate the effects of cutting parameter on surface roughness.

Water jet has been employed in extraacton of minerals for many years but the applications of low pressure jent s ar emodfined to some fields. With increasing strength of equipment it is possible to consider the use of high speed water jets for cutting hard rock. The high speed water jet technology is applied to various engineering fiels such as precessing rocks, quarrying rocks, mechanical fracturing as wel as rock excavation under the sea. For slot cutting in rocks with high speed water jets it is necessary to establish the empirical formula for estiamation of the cutting depth. The cutting depth is influenced by cutting parameters such as driving pressure, traverse speed, standoff distance, and shape and diameter of nozzel. Tests were carried out with a variety of cutting parameters on three types of granite. Nozzle pressures ranged from 1,200 to 2,800 bar, traverse speeds from 0.45 to 10.38 cm/min, standoff distances from 4.5 to 13.5 mm, and three types of nozzle diameter were used.

The complex effects of the machining parameters make it is difficult to control and predict surface roughness. The theoretical surface roughness observed during mechanical machining with a round tool is determined by the tool radius and pitch. However, it was revealed that other parameters, such as the depth of cut and cutting speed, also affect surface roughness. This study adapted the Taguchi method, which can analyze the effects of cutting parameters quantitatively with an efficient number of experiments, to optimize the parameters for better surface roughness. Experiments were designed based on an orthogonal array, and the quantitative effects on the surface roughness were analyzed using the S/N ratio. The surface roughness was affected by all parameters, especially the tool radius. The optimum cutting parameter values obtained in this study showed better surface roughness than the other combinations of the parameters.

This study reviewed the theory of acoustic emission applying generation of acoustic emission in metal cutting and proposed a relationship between fundamental cutting parameters and the root mean square (RMS) voltage of the acoustic emission on the basis of the mechanics of the orthogonal cutting operation. Experimental results are presented for 6063-T5 Auminum and the validity of this relationship is evaluated by a series of tests varying cutting speed, feed rate and rake angle in orthogonal cutting. The original formula derived theoretically has been modified in order to utilize independent of fundamental cutting parameters. RMS voltage of acoustic emission depends on cutting speed and strain rate, but it is not much affected by feed rate. Applying lubricant, the drop of RMS level has been observed.

In this study, the effect of cutting edge geometry, such as helix and rake angles, on surface roughness in ball-end milling is investigated by using the Taguchi method. A set of experiments adopting the $L_{27}(3^{13})$ design with an orthogonal array are conducted with special WC ball-end mills having different helix and rake angles. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) is performed to analyze the effects of tool geometry and machining parameters, such as cutting speed, feed per tooth, and depth of cut, on surface roughness. The ANOVA results reveal that helix and rake angles are critical factors affecting surface roughness; the interaction of helix angle and cutting speed is also important. This research can contribute to novel cutting edge designs of ball-end mills and optimization of cutting parameters.

Runout causes severe differences among cutting force waveforms due to changes of rotational radii. Thus a runout model must be included in a cutting force model to simulate cutting force accurately. In this paper, a runout modeling method and a measurement method using a dialgauge were developed, which were easy to apply. To calculate runout parameters, a computer program algorithm which obtained runout parameters from measurement values was developed. Cutting force waveforms simulated from cutting force model considering runout effect and measured from experiments had good agreements for their wave size and order.
