Abstract
Cylindrical worms are generally machined by the hobbing method using rotary tools, and they are formed in the finishing pass at the full profile height. In this case, the profile of the tool-action surface determines the profile of the machined surface, and for technological reasons, a rectilinear (less frequently circular) axial profile of the tool-action surface is generally assumed. In the currently known technology, machining takes place on special machine tools, and on tools that are specially prepared for a specific outline. The research objective of the article is to present the possibility of creating a helical surface with a circular concave profile on a CNC lathe with a universal tool: a ball-end mill cutter. In the case of the proposed processing method, the surface of the worm is shaped with a spherical-end mill cutter in many passes, and its shape depends on the setting of the tool. This machining method must be performed on CNC machines, and the tool is not geometrically related to the shape of the machined profile. The paper presents the mathematical apparatus for generating a concave helical surface. Based on the calculations, the worm was processed with a spherical-end mill on a CLX350 V4 DMG MORI turning machining center. The surface-quality analysis was carried out on a contact profilographometer, while the dimensional accuracy was verified on a coordinate-measuring machine, and the maximum tolerance field of the measurement was 13 μm. On the basis of the measurements made, the accuracy of the worm outline is consistent with the theoretical assumptions. Using the presented method of machining, we can shape helical surfaces with an assumed profile in the axial section on a CNC machine tool with the use of universal tools.
