An Improved Tool Path Model Including Gyroscopic Effect for Instantaneous Cutting Force Prediction in High-Speed Milling

The efficiency of the high-speed milling process is often limited by the occurrence of chatter. In order to predict the occurrence of chatter, accurate models are necessary. With the speed increasing, gyroscopic effect plays an important pole on the system behavior, including dynamic characteristic and rotating behavior. Considering the influence of gyroscopic effect on rotating behavior, an updated model for the milling process is presented which features as model of the equivalent profile of tool. In combination with this model, a nonlinear instantaneous cutting force model is proposed. The use of this updated equivalent profile of tool results in significant differences in the static uncut thickness compared to the traditional model.
