Abstract:

The paper presents a mechanistic cutting force model of serrated end mill to predict cutting forces. Geometric model of serrated end mill is established, which covers variable helix end mill geometries. In this model, the serration of helical cutting flutes is expressed spatially and the wave of serration is defined to be a sine wave. The spatial vector is applied to define chip thickness so as to enhance the spatial expressiveness of the model, which is perpendicular to the curvature of each flute. Each helical flute is scatted into a series of infinitesimal cutting edges. The infinitesimal cutting forces depend on three cutting force coefficients and three edge force coefficients in the tangential, radial, and axial directions at every cutting element. By integrating the infinitesimal cutting forces along each cutting edge, the milling forces with serrated end mill can be predicted. The model feasibility of the serrated end mill is verified by comparing the predicted and measured cutting forces. Moreover, the model is also verified such that it can also predict cutting forces with other types of end mills, such as variable helix serrated end mill, variable helix end mill, and regular end mill.
