Determination of the Cutting Moments at Teeth Tip in the Case of the Milling Cutter with Multiple Teeth

Abstract

This paper presents experimental results for milling process using a six components dynamometer for complete mechanical actions measurement. The aim is the cutting moments determination and their evaluation on the milling cutter with multiple teeth during the cutting process. To know the cutting moments to the teeth of the tool, the instantaneous position of the teeth during milling process is determined. To achieve this purpose a calculation algorithm was developed to obtain the milling cutter teeth position respectively the moments at the tips of the teeth.
