The Impact of the Cutting Process on the Dimensional Accuracy of Expendable Patterns

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, a systematic study was carried out on the cutting process of expendable pattern, and the impact of process parameters, such as spindle speed, feed rate and cutting depth on the dimensional accuracy of expendable pattern was discussed. The results show that the dimensional accuracy at length and width directions of expendable pattern is less affected by the cutting process, while the machining accuracy at height direction of expendable pattern is greatly influenced by the cutting process. With the increase of spindle speed, the height error reduced undulately; with the increase of feed rate, the height error increases gradually; the selection of cutting depth has a reasonable range, above or below this range will cause the increase of the dimension error.
