The Combined Approach to the Evaluation of the Cutting Force Data when Ball End Milling

Abstract:

This paper introduces chosen results from measuring cutting forces when end ball milling as well as combined approach to their evaluation. Such a combined approach involves Taguchi array and Response Surface Methodology while main cutting data as depth of cut and side step and cutting speed and feed rate have been taken into account. Main effects of cutting data mentioned above have been identified by means of statistical formulae expressing testing conditions of ball end milling cutters. Interactions among all the cutting conditions are capable of finding out optimized radial and axial depth of cut which are derived from the measured components of the cutting force.
