Structure Optimization Design and Application of a Strain Based Dynamometer

Article Preview

Abstract:

A strain based dynamometer used for the prediction and measurement of three-component cutting forces for milling operations has been designed on the basis of the principle of additional elastic element theory. Meanwhile, four Wheatstone bridges, considerable amplifier and data acquisition software based on LabVIEW are also used to compose a whole system acquiring the cutting force signals. In order to obtain higher natural frequency and magnification, this paper focuses on the calculation and optimization of the dimensions of the special structure, and finally its first natural frequency can be stabilized at more than 14kHz, which are high enough to precisely measure the cutting forces, and the magnification can also achieve up to 15. The dynamic characteristics of the dynamometer are studied theoretically and experimentally, the results show that the developed dynamometer is able to measure the dynamic force component in high-speed cutting.
