Application of a variable flow stress machining theory to helical end milling

ABSTRACT A methodology of modeling chip geometry of flat helical end milling based on a variable flow stress machining theory is presented in this article. The proposed model is concerned with the variation of the width of cut thickness. The nonuniform chip thickness geometry is discretized into several segments based on the radial depth of cut. The chip geometry for each segment is considered to be constant by taking the average value of the maximum and minimum chip thickness. The maximum chip thickness for each chip segment is computed based on the current width of cut, feed per tooth and the cutter diameter. The subsequent radial depth of cut is subtracted from the discretized size of the width of cut to obtain the minimum chip thicknesses. The forces for each segment are summed to obtain the total forces acting on the system of the workpiece and the tool. The cutting forces can be predicted from input data of work material properties, cutter configuration and the cutting conditions used. The validation of the proposed model is achieved by correlating experimental results with the predicted results obtained.
