... blades. This paper presents an optimal selection of tool orientation and spindle speed along the tool path as the metal is removed during the ball-end milling of blades. The effects of tool orientation and speed on the mechanics and dynamics of the ball-end milling process are formulated. Test case...

...Lei Wu; Jinting Xu; Xiaolong Yin; Yuwen Sun When planning tool orientations for 5-axis machining from the perspective of kinematics, existing works often tend to optimize the angular velocity or acceleration of the rotary axes rather than the angular jerk due to its calculation sensitivity...

..., and this paper presents a new stability analysis method to analyze the effect of tool orientation on machining efficiency for five-axis bull-nose end milling. In the establishing of stability prediction model, coordinate transformation and vector projection method are adopted to identify the CWE and dynamic...

...Tao Ye; Cai-Hua Xiong; You-Lun Xiong; Can Zhao This paper presents a new tool orientation optimization approach for multi-axis machining considering up to second order kinematical performance of the multi-axis machine. Different from the traditional optimization approach, tool orientations...
