Study on the effects of endmill's shape on the machinabitity and the cutting time

엔드밀의 형상이 가공특성 및 절삭시간에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구

In this study, the inclined endmilling process with a 3-axis machining center using inalined jigs is introduced for the purpose of reducing overall Dies/Molds machining time and improving the machining accuracies. In order to analyse the cutting mechanism of a given endmill more accurateky, the unification of the cutting mechanism model of 3-different-kind endmills is examined by using the mose radius as a parameter. By adding radial runouts as a parameter which influences on surface roughness, the superposition method which defines the effective cusp heigh superposing the cutter mark height and the conventional cusp height is modified. And 3-D surface topography predicted in this paper looks like the surface normally observed in practice. Through machining experiments, the adequacy of the superposition algorithm was confirmed.
