Improving dynamic process stability for milling thin-walled blades – Chatter-free machining strategy development

How to improve dynamic process stability by selection of favorable machining strategy?

Challenge and Motivation

  • The workpiece dynamics change continuously during milling due to material removal.
  • The shape of the IPW1 depends on the selected machining strategy, e.g., flank or point for roughing.

Objective

  • Extensive analysis of different IPW shape geometries on workpiece dynamics and process stability.
  • Development of a systematic methodology to design the machining strategy for improved stability and productivity.
