Four tool path strategies such as equal-interval tool paths, parallel tool paths, parallel–tangency tool paths, and freeform tool paths are proposed in computer numerical control milling of a complex freeform surface. The objective is to understand how 3D tool paths influence their machining efficiency, surface quality, and form accuracy. In this study, their scallop heights were less than or equal to 15 μm. First, their scallop heights distributions and 3D tool path distances were theoretically analyzed; then, four tool path strategies were investigated with reference to machining efficiency, surface texture height, surface roughness, and form errors. It is shown that scallop heights distribution can be used to display the surface texture state and predict tool path distance. Experimental results indicate that the surface texture height, the surface roughness, and the form errors were nearly identical on the machined flat location and surface for various tool path strategies, whereas their surface quality and form accuracy are easily destroyed on the abrupt ones except for the parallel tool paths. Although the freeform tool paths produce the shortest tool path distance through 3-axes driving mode, the parallel tool paths offer the best surface quality and form accuracy through 2-axes driving mode. This is because the 3-axes driving and its vector changes on abrupt location easily lead to large machine vibration and movement errors. It is confirmed that the parallel tool path strategy with 2-axes driving mode can improve the surface quality and form accuracy in actual milling of a complex freeform surface. 相似文献

NC Machining of Freeform Pockets with Arbitrary Wall Geometry Using a Grid-Based Navigation Approach 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
R. Narayanaswami Y. Choi 《The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology》2001,18(10):708-716
A tool path must be determined in an efficient manner to generate NC (numerical control) code for machining. This is particularly
important when machining freeform pockets with arbitrary wall geometry on a three-axis CNC machine. In this paper, a grid-based
3D navigation algorithm for generating NC tool-path data for both linear interpolation and a combination of linear and circular
interpolation is presented for three-axis CNC milling of general pockets with sculptured bottom surfaces. The pocket surface
is discretised by defining a grid and the navigation algorithm plans the tool motion. The grid size and the cutter diameter
are chosen so that a predefined tolerance for surface roughness is satisfied. The grid-based navigation algorithm is simulated
graphically and verified experimentally. 相似文献

Improvement of machining efficiency is always one of the most interesting problems in CNC machining. Traditionally, the ball-end cutter is widely used in sculptured surface machining for the highly flexible controllability. But the process efficiency is low especially for freeform surface machining, which generally needs multiple tool-paths. To improve the machining efficiency of multi-axis flank milling of freeform surface, a novel barrel cutter design method is proposed in this paper. There are two principle parameters determining the revolution surface of the barrel cutter: the radius of the generatrix curve and the maximum rotating radius. The main work in this paper is to calculate the two parameters for strip-width-maximization machining without local over-gouging. Firstly, the curvature properties are introduced by the geometry model of the barrel cutter. Then the contact condition between the barrel cutter and the freeform surface is analyzed, relationship between cutter parameters and surface curvature is derived. To avoid the over-gouging, based on the curvature constraint, the designed surface is fitted into the cutter surface by surface approximation theory, so that the cutter surface can approach to the designed surface as close as possible. After that, toolpath planning method for milling of freeform surface with the barrel cutter is presented. Finally, machining implementations are presented to verify the effectiveness of the proposed method. 相似文献

A new milling methodology with the equivalent normal curvature milling model machining freeform surfaces is proposed based on the normal curvature theorems on differential geometry. Moreover, a specialized whirlwind milling tool and a 5-axis CNC horizontal milling machine are introduced. This new milling model can efficiently enlarge the material removal volume at the tip of the whirlwind milling tool and improve the producing capacity. The machining strategy of this model is to regulate the orientation of the whirlwind milling tool relatively to the principal directions of the workpiece surface at the point of contact, so as to create a full match with collision avoidance between the workpiece surface and the symmetric rotational surface of the milling tool. The practical results show that this new milling model is an effective method in machining complex three- dimensional surfaces. This model has a good improvement on finishing machining time and scallop height in machining the freeform surfaces over other milling processes. Some actual examples for manufacturing the freeform surfaces with this new model are given. 相似文献

The numerical control (NC) program for multi-axis end milling depends on the parameters of the tool, in particular, the radius of the tool. When there is any tool dimensional change due to various reasons, the user needs to re-generate the NC program, which is a time-consuming procedure. In this article, a cutter radius compensation method for multi-axis end milling is proposed. It takes a general NC program as the input, recovers the normal vectors of the machined surface from the NC program via surface reconstruction, and uses these vectors as compensation vectors to realize space cutter radius compensation. The proposed algorithm of shape reconstruction and normal vector computation has a linear complexity in terms of the number of cutter center location points in the NC program. Thus, real-time computation and compensation is possible. Our method also provides a way to restore the machined surface if the CAD model of the machines surface is not accessible. This has other applications, such as interference detection and manufacturing simulation. The compensation algorithm is shown to be very effective in reducing the number of undercut points through simulation with the software VERICUT and with real milling for real-world NC programs. 相似文献

The surface texture of a milled surface is an inherently important process response in finish milling. It is one of the most commonly used criteria to determine the machinability of a particular workpiece material. However, literature survey on the study of the surface topography analysis relating to the cutter path orientations when high speed finish inclined milling is scant. Previous works were either involved in conventional milling of easy-to-cut workpiece materials or machining at different workpiece inclination angles. Furthermore, none of the previous work has detailed the true surface topography of the machined surface with regards to the cutter condition. Instead, the works provided quantitative values in terms of the Ra value. This article is concerned with evaluating cutter path orientations on an inclined workpiece angle of 75° to simulate finish milling of free form moulds and dies. Surface topography effects are assessed with regards to different cutter path orientations on its surface. The aims of this study are to provide an in-depth understanding on the surface texture produced by various cutter path orientations when high speed finish inclined milling hardened steel at a workpiece inclination angle of 75° using surface topography analysis and determine the best cutter path orientation with respect to the best surface texture achieved. 3D topography maps together with 2D surface profiles are used to assess the experimental results. The conclusion is that milling in a single direction vertical upward orientation gave the best workpiece surface texture. 相似文献

目前CNC上的轨迹控制功能仍主要是直线和圆弧插补,因此当加工自由曲面时,大多只能采用直线或圆弧逼近算法来对曲线进行逼近处理。针对数控加工的实际需求,现在数控系统技术人员对数控机床插补器进行研究并开发出了许多曲线和曲面插补功能。基于曲线插补,在保持进给速度尽可能恒定的条件下,对刀位路径和刀位速度进行离线的曲线拟合,以便于得到用于数控加工的刀位文件。这种方法能有效解决进给速度的波动问题,并能有效压缩刀位文件。为此,提出几种算法来拟合刀位路径和刀位速度轮廓曲线。曲线和曲面插补在数控代码数据量和逼近误差方面都有较大的改善。 相似文献

Geometric error compensation for five-axis ball-end milling by considering machined surface textures
Guoqiang Fu Tengda Gu Hongli Gao Yu’an Jin Xiaolei Deng 《The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology》2018,99(5-8):1235-1248
Arbitrarily adjusting tool poses during error compensation may affect the quality of surface textures. This paper presents one tool center limitation-based geometric error compensation for five-axis ball-end milling to avoid the unexpected machined textures. Firstly, the mechanism of cutter location generation with cuter contact (CC) trajectory is analyzed. Due to zero bottom radius of ball-end cutter, CC points of the surface are only related to the tool center of the cutter. Realizing that, tool center limitation method of ball-end milling is established based on the generation of movements of all axes in order to ensure the machined textures. Then, geometric error compensation of ball-end milling is expressed as optimizing rotation angles of rotary axes by limiting tool centers of cutter locations. Next, particle swarm optimization (PSO) is intergraded into the geometric error compensation to obtain the compensated numerical control (NC) code. The limited region for particles of rotation angles is established, and moving criterion with a mutation operation is presented. With the help of the tool center limitation method, fitnesses of all particles are calculated with the integrated geometric error model. In this way, surface textures are considered and geometric errors of the machine tool are reduced. At last, cutting experiments on five-axis ball-end milling are carried out to testify the effectiveness of the proposed geometric error compensation. 相似文献

Form-truing error compensation of diamond grinding wheel in CNC envelope grinding of free-form surface 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

In computer numerical control (CNC) grinding of free-form surface, an ideal arc profile of trued diamond grinding wheel is generally employed to plan 3D tool paths, whereas its form-truing errors greatly influence the ground form accuracy. A form-truing error compensation approach is proposed by using an approached wheel arc profile to replace the previously designed ideal one. The objective is to directly compensate the trued wheel arc-profile errors. It may avoid the time consumption of traditional approach that compensates the measured coordinate point errors of workpiece to an iterative grinding operation. First, the 3D tool path surface was constructed to plan the 3D tool paths. Second, the CNC arc truing of grinding wheel was conducted to analyze the form-truing error distribution relative to the applied wheel arc profile. Then, the form-truing error compensation was carried out in CNC envelope grinding. Finally, the iterative closest point (ICP) algorithm was used to match the measured coordinate points of workpiece to ideal free-form surface. It is shown that the 3D tool path surface constructed is practicable to plan arbitrary 3D tool paths for the form-truing error compensation. The ICP matching may be used to investigate 3D ground form error distribution. It is confirmed that the form-truing error compensation can directly improve the 3D ground form accuracy. It may decrease the 3D ground form error by about 20% when the 2D form-truing error is reduced by about 58% using the same truing conditions for CNC grinding. 相似文献

Based on the machining tool path and the true trajectory equation of the cutting edge relative to the workpiece, the engagement region between the cutter and workpiece is analyzed and a new model is developed for the numerical simulation of the machined surface topography in a multiaxis ball-end milling process. The influence of machining parameters such as the feed per tooth, the radial depth of cut, the angle orientation tool, the cutter runout, and the tool deflection upon the topography are taken into account in the model. Based on the cutter workpiece engagement, the cutting force model is established. The tool deflections are extracted and used in the surface topography model for simulation. The predicted force profiles were compared to the measured ones. A reasonable agreement between the experimental and the predicted results was found. 相似文献

Cutter runout is a common phenomenon affecting the cutting performances in milling operations. To date, most of the milling process models considering cutter runout were established based on the circular tooth path approximation, which brought errors into the runout estimation. In this paper, a new approach is presented for modelling the milling process geometry with cutter runout based on the true tooth trajectory of cutter in milling. The mathematical relationship between the trajectories generated by successive cutter teeth with runout is analysed. The milling process geometrical parameters, including the instantaneous undeformed chip thickness, the entry and exit angles of a cutting tooth, and the ideal peripheral machined workpiece surface roughness, are modelled according to the true tooth trajectories. Numerical method is used to solve the derived transcendental equations. A simulation study of the effects of cutter runout on milling process geometry is conducted using the models. It was found that the change of cutter radius for a tooth relative to its preceding one is the most important factor in evaluating the effects of cutter runout. 相似文献
