Stability lobes prediction for corner radius end mill using nonlinear cutting force coefficients

Abstract

There are a vast number of different types of end mill tools used in the manufacturing industry, each type with a unique shape. These tool shapes have a direct influence on the cutting force it generates during machining. This article presents a more accurate approach to predicting the stability margin in machining by considering the cutting force coefficients and axial immersion angle as variables along the axial depth of cut. A numerical approach to obtaining a converged solution to the stability model is presented. The results obtained are validated using experimental results and a very good agreement is seen. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
