An improved rapid prediction method of the milling tool point frequency response function

摘要

During the prediction of the tool point frequency response function (FRF) based on receptance coupling substructure analysis (RCSA), in allusion to the problems that the existing tool model cannot simulate the contour of the tool precisely and the large amount of calculation for joint parameter identification during the calculation of the rotational FRF of the spindle, the joint model and the optimization algorithm affect the identification accuracy when acquiring the rotational FRF of the spindle. This study proposes a rapid prediction method for the tool point FRF on the basis of RCSA. The method divides the spindle-holder-tool system into two parts: the spindle-holder-partial shank and the remaining tool. On this basis, this study proposes a method of accurately establishing the model of the remaining tool with a 3D scanner and improves the calculation method of the rotational FRF of the spindle-holder-partial shank assembly through the reverse RCSA and finite difference method directly through the modal impact testing on the cutting tool. This study provides the experiments on a vertical machining center and compares the predicted FRF and the measured FRF on the tool point. The result indicates that the predicted FRF curve is consistent with the measured FRF curve with the relative error of natural frequency within 4.0%. This study confirms that the method is feasible, effective, and convenient.
