Experimental Study on Cutting Force in End Milling of Stainless Steel

摘要

1Cr18Ni9Ti is always used to make propeller, which is an important part of industrial crystal implement, but this kind of material is hard to machining. Cutting force experiment was carried out to optimize the milling parameters. The equipments of the experiment are introduced, and the influence that milling parameters upon three dimensional cutting force is studied. The cutting force of the flat-end-milling cutter is analyzed to explain the reason why X-axis's cutting force is greater in up-milling than in down-milling, yet Y-axis's is smaller. The formulation of cutting force is derived from orthogonal method. Rules are provided for optimizing cutting parameters in milling of stainless steel.
